DON'T BE TARDY FOR THE PARTY
So I don't what it is about this year but halloween feels really new and special to me again. Maybe it's because I carved two (count 'em TWO) pumpkins this year and have eaten a much larger quantity of pumpkin seeds than I have in the past, but it felt so special that I made a mask from scratch and everything for the occasion. This year we're rocking shark telegrams, my roomie and I, and I hope to confuse and delight everybody just.enough. through this costume. I'm so hyped...I could...I could...CHOMP.
I mean, let's be real here, this is the first Halloween I've ever had in a major American city, so I'm definitely excited for that. The thought of rolling around on public transportation with my own crazy costume on, while hopefully running into people with even crazier costumes, and hopefully everybody will be boozy enough to take random pictures with strangers--well, it all sounds too good to be true. Call me an optimist.
(A random aside--my people and I spent a good deal of one night talking about how we wanted people to start asking "how's the boozness going?" at parties and for people to say incredibly nerdy things in reply like "there have been high returns this quarter." So, check it. Make boozness happen, my ten readers!)
So in the spirit of this All Hallow's Eve, some links!
Extreme Pumpkins
The Monster Mash
A Strange Website whose url is barackobamamask.com (not my original find but i had to pass it on--and why is the face on the right NOTHING LIKE OBAMA)
This image of Lady Gaga, which would be a good costume in retrospect. CHOMP
The opening scene from Scream
....And an eyeball tattoo.
Kelly, SO many things to say...
ReplyDeleteFIRST OF ALL, you should DEFINITELY warn people about that eyeball tattoo link!! I was expecting a tattoo OF an eyeball, not a tattoo ON an eyeball. GROSSSSS.
Pleaseplease take pictures of your shark telegram costumes, and all the best costumes you see out-and-about.
DON'T BE TARDY FOR THE PARTY. That one pumpkin in the back looks like Adam!
franny you are not the first person to say that about the pumpkin looking like adam! savannah carved it with teddy roosevelt in mind but it came out adam...maybe because he was sitting like two feet away the whole time.
ReplyDeleteYour pumpkin ideas are looking really unique and great too. Will implement them in my Halloween party. Planning to have it at one of NYC venues. Will have best party planners for the day. As want to make this day enjoyable and memorable for my kid’s too.
