i love Halloween...it's the 2nd of 2 American things that i have completely embraced; we don't do anything for halloween at home! Every year, i dress in costume and have somewhere to go. In fact, last was the 1st year since i've started dressing up that i didn't do anything and it was somewhat depressing. So this year, a friend was throwing a party and i found out about it in Sept (or so) so WOOHOO i get to dress up. As the time drew nearer, i realized that i wasn't as excited as i normally get and about 3 weeks before the party, it hit me that:
fast forward 1 week prior and all of a sudden, the Halloween Spirit hit me in the gut! I want to go the party AND i want a costume!
So since i have the cane, i figured i would incorporate it into the costume and go as a lady pimp or something, but the time i was done browsing, i decided on a Viking Princess. Ah...such a cute/sexy costume right? WRONG!!!! the damn thing came and as cute and hot as that model looked in hers, i looked RIDICULOUS in mine; the hat was too shallow, the dress was too big and it wasn't that nice chocalte-y colour either - it was more of a baby tootoo brown!!! the best thing in the costume bag were the boot covers! STEUPSSSSS!!!!! Of course, because i'd waited till a week prior, it was too late to do anything with the stupid ass thing! i still have it, in case anyone is in need of a Viking Princess costume
I was pissed! i still went to the party dressed as "woman with cane" and i had a good time, but i'm not going to fool around again next time :-)
Anyhoo, Happy Halloween to all!!
- i really wasn't that interested in going to the party and
- 75% of the fun is going to Party City (or wherever) to look for the perfect costume (or idea)...shopping online is not so much fun for me

Glad you had a good time! This is exactly why I don't buy Halloween costumes online... too much room for error. I mean, if I'm going to be a Viking Princess, I want to the sexiest Viking Princess at the party.
ReplyDeleteI shall go as 'woman with power chair' or 'SUPER MS WOMAN'--thanks for the great ideas!!
ReplyDeleteYa, I never have much luck with those online costumes. Gald you had a good time anyway!
ReplyDelete@ Beer for the Shower: Thank you!!!! i was trying to make the costume work somehow, but decided if i couldn't do it right, i won't do it all...
ReplyDelete@ Diane: we have to make this work for us in any way that we can :-)
@ Karen: hopefully if i give myself enuf time i'll get it right next time.
