Yes, one could certainly be "Ovarene"...Halloween or not. LOL

I'm going to be a tower. My boyfriend's going to be a plane.

Hey, if you can't laugh about it, you're letting the terrorists win!

Two of my friends and I are going to be the Powerpuff girls.

Im going as an ADULT for halloween....
That requires that you just put on your regular clothes...

DH and I checked out the local costume shop yesterday. I found a nice red-and-black long dress, but I haven't decided how to accessorize it yet. It's called "Countess" but you could do a vampire look with it... except I can't pull it off - who ever heard of a vampire with a tan? :p

DH found a "samurai" costume. Just one thing: It's bright orange. When he stepped out of the dressing room to model it for me, I burst out laughing. When I could breathe again, I told him he looked like a pumpkin. He was not happy with me. I'm such a bad wife...

Speaking of "sexy" costumes, about 60% of the costumes for adult women were "sexy" something-or-other. Sexy vampire, sexy cat, sexy purple bunny, you get the idea. I even found a "Sexy Raggedy Ann" costume that was a midriff-baring blue top, a blue miniskirt with a little apron, a red yarn wig, and red-and-white striped stockings. That's just... wrong.

I think I know which dress you're talking about. Was it one of those costumes in a bag? I bought one like that a few years ago and the vampire collar thing bugged me so I just dressed as the devil's bride. I made a black veil, wore with my sequined red devil ears, and made a bouquet out of fake red roses, a tiny pitchfork, and black veil material.

I did try on a dress like that, and I agree with you about the collar - which is why I didn't buy it. I got something similar, but without the collar.

I'm being ShamikaT.

I don't know what to be this year!

how about a fanta girl?

I have a white graduation gown and a black graduation gown. Therefore, I'm going to be either an angel or a nun.

Anyone thinking of making snarky comments, shut up. :p

Now I have that song in my head!

Want a Fanta? Doncha want a, wanta Fanta?

Hooters girl. :)

And that's different from every other day how?

;)

My boyfriend and I are going to a party hosted by the friend with the sickest sense of humor ever, and we're going to win his costume contest. The first prize goes to the girl with the most creative skank outfit, and to the guy with the most offensive costume.

The first prize is a box of Franzia, so I seriously need to win.

I'm going to be a kittykat prostitute. I stole the idea from an SNL skit about five years ago. If cat society had girl cats that sold themselves for money, that's what I'm going to be.

My boyfriend is going as Steve Irwin (complete with stuffed stingray attached to the safari shirt), but before you all get too horrified, at least he's not going as September 11.
