HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Happy Halloween Everyone! So, the party went off without a hitch. It was a lot of fun and I'm kind of embarrassed to say, I won the costume contest...at my own party! Okay so it was totally legit, people actually voted for me, but you still feel bad accepting a $50 cash prize when it's your party and you advertised the prizes for best costume...Anyway, I was Madonna from the 80's. The black outfit, you know, black lace gloves, short black pants with a lacy black skirt on top, lace shirt, black bow in my hair, lots and lots of gummy bracelets, which by the way, when I was younger and owned a million of them I don't think they cost as much as they do now. I spent over $50 at Claire's buying just the damn jewelry for this costume! Oh well, guess I made my money back. Second place went to Pedro from a Napoleon/Pedro duo. Two people showed up as Napoleon Dynamite which was bound to happen but they were both quite funny! And last place went to Mr. T. My friend Dave is the king of Halloween Costumes. He and I live and die for this holiday.

Some other great costumes of the night:

• Punky Brewster
• Little John
• Batman with down syndrome (don't ask)
• Pink Lady
• George Michael (from the 80's pre public display of penis incident)
• Kate Moss (with coke on the nose and a mirror full o' lines)
• Pocahontas
• Geisha
• Jay Z (we call the sweet one J so he showed up with a "Z" on his chest - clever)
• Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz - WITH a real live toto.
• Horny Devil (there's always one!)
• A Black Jack Dealer
• Locke, Jin and Sayid from LOST
• Captain Boobs
• A Disco Ball

We had a massive game of Flip Cup going on. I rock at flip cup! As do most of the other classy ladies at the party! I don't know what I'll ever do if I redo my basement. The stench the next day was so repulsive...WOW!

And the most amazing part of the night and the confirmation that I am getting old is the fact that we had a "Kids Room" at the party. That's right, there were children chillin at an adult Halloween Party but it's gotten to the point that if we don't have a room for the children some of the parents won't show up so, the kids are in a room hooked up with a large supply of Disney movies, popcorn, snacks and little toys that I bought the little brats. The kids are happy, the parents are happy and I'm happy. It's all good. And one of the last guests to leave was a parent group with a kid crashed out in the "kids room". They left at 5am!

Anyway, I'll bore you no longer. I'm going to try and post some pic's without faces even though that is kind of pointless when it comes to Halloween pictures/costumes. I also don't have a full shot of myself so I'll do my best to show you my winning costume. Happy Halloween everyone. Go eat some candy!
