I just remembered that I might be going to a Halloween party this year. (And people do generally get dressed up around here at work - I wear my Mickey Mouse ears. Heh.) So I'm thinking of getting an actual costume this year.

No idea what to get yet, but man, if I'd want to be a witch, the costume stores have me covered 100 times over.

ETA: Ugh. What sucks is that these costumes are generally so cheaply made, but yet cost as much as a real outfit. Or more.

ETA2: A witch, or if I'd want to look like an escapee from a cheap porno.

You laughed at me way back when, but...

If you would like to borrow my jedi costume (light sabre included), you are welcome to.

You'll need to find your own pants and boots, though.

Alternately, buy a pink terry track suit, tart up your hair, and go as Rose Tyler.

:P

And spackle on a gallon of mascarra, natch. Only thing is that not a single person would know who that was.

Them: Hmm. Who are you?

Me: Rose Tyler

Them: Who?

Me: She's a character on Doctor Who.

Them: What?

Me: Third base.

BWA!

It would be so totally true. You have no idea. :D

Oh, I have an idea. Why do you think I spend so much time online? Do you think I can discuss Who with the other kindergarten moms? I think not.

*snickers*

I attempted to show DW to a friend once, who commented "That was, um, interesting. We don't need to watch more, do we?" MWAH.

Why is it that everyone who understands me lives thousands of miles away? WHY?!?

OOOH! :D Will think about that.

Everything should fit you--with the possible exception of the under-tunic sleeves, which are cut to bunch at the wrist (I have teeny, tiny wrists).

But the robe, tabbards, tunic, obi, belt, etc should all be fine.

That actually would be REALLY cool! Okay, I'll borrow it!!

Okay. I will box it up for you.

The light sabre has two pieces--a hilt that can hang from your belt and an acryllic rod that is the blade. It's kind of a pain to carry with the blade in (since it won't hang without dragging on the floor). Do you want both pieces?

I probably don't need the blade then I don't think. What self-respecting Jedi would walk around with the blade out?

(And if you could send to my work instead of home, that'd be faboo.)

Please to be mailing me your work address, then?

POP QUIZ: WHO IS IN THE ICON, BIOTCH?

Wienerwiki!

And that's Billydom.

Woe. I have a Halloween party I have to dress up for, too! I'm thinking of ripping off Buffy and attaching a name tag to my chest that has "God" scribbled on it.

My friends would totally know who Rose Tyler was, though. MAYBE I'LL BUY A PLUNGER AND GO AS A DALEK!

AWWW! No, my friends would get the Star Wars stuff, but Doctor Who? Not a chance. I'd bet they'd never even heard of it.

We have two possiblities for Halloween this year. As I'm living in the geek!dorm, everyone wants to dress up. We already have Party!Bird (Big-Bird, mardi Gras style), and a few other ideas. I've been thinking of being Sarah-Jane for Halloween, but then no one, even the other Doctor Who fan, who's only seen New!Who, would know what I was.

Last year I went as Elphaba/the Wicked Witch of the West. Because villains have more fun that time of year, it seems. :D

Cosplay comms are good resources if you know what you want to go as and need to find cheap pieces. /geek

Mardi Gras Big Bird might be the best thing ever. :D

Totally.

Didn't even think of that.

My friend just gave me the best ide ever: Since I'm ginger, I'm gonna go as Donna from TRB. All I need is a wedding dress from Goodwill! :D I love it, it's perfect, and I do not care that a grand total of one person will know who I am. Woo~

Didn't even think of that.

Most people don't, because they tend to put cosplay and Halloween into two seperate categories in their heads, for some reason. *shrug*

HA! Awesome!!

We are doing the Mickey's Halloween Treat at Disneyland on Halloween. Hubby just got a cool pirate hat to complete his pirate costume. We purchased costume for kidlet there on Friday - skeleton pirate. Me? Not a clue.

My default costume is a witch, because I have a kick-ass witch hat and lovely velvet cloak. But I feel more the need to be either piratey or wenchy this year, so that I go along with the guys. *sigh*

Awwww! Have you done those before? That always looks cute.

And maybe you could be a pirate witch!

This is our first Halloween Treat. I shall report back.

And if I knew how to be a pirate witch, I totally would. Unfortunately, I do *not* want to end up looking like Tia Dalma...

You could go as a wiener dog wrangler! (Those exist, right?)

Yes they totally do. Because I say so. ^_^

YES!
