halloween de-breif
I had an excellent Halloween. It started with a plan to dress as socially inappropriate Barbie dolls, based off Julia's jokes about Keesha the first black Barbie. We came up with:

Julia: "Mammie" / House Nigger Barbie $10SALE! $6 (only 3/5ths)
Mike: Trucker Ken $10 and a case of Schlitz
Nicole: Trailer Barbie $10 and a pack of Newports
Hunter: Homeless Ken 30c for a bus pass (please help god bless)
Me: Chola Barbie $10 or 2000 pesos
Alex: Vato Ken $10, ese!

In the last 24 hours, the party of 6 became a party of 12 as we were joined by other in non theme costumes, whom we mostly tagged and included anyway, because Julia was having fun making pricetags:

Kitty: Miscellaneous Woodland Sprite (dubbed "Woodland Farie Barbie". $10 and the laughter of children.
Shawn: Nonspecific shamanistic personification of Pan/The Horned Man ("Shaman Ken." $10 and the spirit of the wolf)
Brendan: Legolas ("Elfin Ranger Lvl 12 Ken." $10 and the one ring that binds us)
Mandy: miscellaneous goth with extra glitter ("Twilight Barbie." $10 and the blood of a virgin)
Melanie: Fem!Shirlock Holmes
Melanie's Skanky Sister Who's Name I Can't Remember: A Slutty What? I'm pretty sure she was a Victoria's Secret Angel.

Yes, there are pictures forthcoming.

Some highlights of the evening:

>>Hunter ran down to the CVS to pick up something in costume, and a homeless man glared at him. Over the night he also was given a dollar and a tequila shot. Another homeless man called him brotha and bumped elbows with him.
>>Someone yelled "Oh my god, Orlando Bloom!" out a car window at Brendan
>>We invented a new drinking game. Every time you see a Slutty!What? you drink.
>>My eyebrows scared people. And/or reminded them of high school. Ive got some GREAT chola pics.
>>Nicole got uproariously drunk. People thought she was really pregnant. She was like "are you kidding? this drunk and smoking if I was really pregnant?" She at one point sat on the infant doll she had pinned to her side, and had to buy Julia a shot to prevent her from calling DCFS.
>>Slutty!Red Riding Hood stopped us in the street to give us candy.
>>Julia and I jammed tribal at SmartBar, and everyone suddenly wanted to learn.
>>The best part of the night was the walk down Clark street from SmartBar to Pick Me Up's, in the thick of costumed masses.
>>We found Waldo!
>>We saw a Slutty!Mexican at Pick Me Up's. A white girl was wearing a sombrero and a stereotypical poncho-blanket as some kind of micro-mini wrap dress. Since I was also dressed, technically, as a skanky Meican, I stood up and shouted "Viva la Raza!... and you don't speak Spanish and have no idea what I just said."

I'm pretty sure there's more, but I will wait til we have pictures.

Nicole: Your purse and keys are at my house. And your car is parked safely in a free no meter no permit zone. And yes it is locked.

Also, I left my watch at your house somewhere.

Sorry for leaving all my costume shit there. You can throw it all out, or keep any of the bits if you thought you could use them for one of your various arts and crafts things.

yeah, i found it. i'll leave it somewhere obvious for the next time we game.

speaking of which... starship titanic? eh..? ehhh?

Do you want to keep the costume bits? I know you plan to make a good one, but in case you have another emergency need to dress up as Legloas between now and having the time to finish it... these things happen...
