Halloween recap

I still can’t believe I brought a copy of the United States Tax Code to a club. The Tax Code was an amazing prop for my second Halloween costume: law student!

I had tape on my glasses, an old briefcase, and about 8 inches of books. I felt pretty…oh so pretty…

The craziest costume we saw last night was an abortion doctor who wore a monster fetus on his shoulder. Yes, it was as gross as it sounds.

At the Eagle there were three guys wearing the same pimp costume from Party City. Wearing the same $19.99 costume as two other people is worse than being caught wearing a duplicate dress on the red carpet. The pimps did not know each other, but the bar was so crowded that they ended up awkwardly close anyway.

When I made the Party City comment to my bar group, I got the craziest looks because two of the people in my bar-group had NEVER HEARD OF PARTY CITY! Gasp! I don’t know why I am so scandalized by this…  it must be the franchise-lover in me…

Next to the duplicate pimps was a morbidly obese man dressed as Winnie the Pooh. I told Pooh that he should have brought a jar of honey as a prop.

The best costume of the night was Billy Mays. There was also a guy at the Saloon who I swear was NeNe Leakes from the Housewives of Atlanta.

In true NeNe style, the NeNe drag queen went off on someone….and that someone just happened to be my friend Phillip! We were on the dance floor and Phillip’s costume caught on NeNe’s sleeve. Nene thought Phillip was grabbing her and proceeded to smack him.

…and hilarity ensued.

NeNe’s friend eventually came and calmed her down. The awkwardness was delicious.

Last year I spent Halloween DJing at the Gamma eta Gamma house. Pictures are here.

      It was loud in the clubhouse! Plus I wasn’t screaming it, the camera was just picking it up because I was holding it.

      …and someone who does that on a wet pool table may not have all of her functions (including hearing well) about her.

    She has to be whatsherface from Flash Dance. What gave it away is that sweatshirt.

    I love the medical dude also. The grabbing of the shirt as he dances. So nice.

      Yes, I think she was flashdance lady. I’ve never seen that movie, but I guess she was channeling the stripper part of that role?
