What should I be for Halloween?
Edited on Tue Oct-17-06 07:04 PM by YellowRubberDuckie
My friends at work think I should go as Yoda, but that's a little difficult. What should I go to work dressed as? I can't wear a pajama costume and it has to be recognizeable as a costume. HELP PLEASE!!
Here's my face from a couple weeks ago.

Trying to force myself to work on something for my Roman Empire class, and I can't focus.

Need...Ritalin...

Yeah, that wouldn't work at my work. And I feel really sad that that's what you thought of when you saw my picture. :evilfrown:

from some commercial for some prescription drug that's on TV these days.

10. Go as an 8-track cartridge. Should be easy to make, in a boxy (sp?) way.
If anyone asks why, you can inject some politics, and say you're fond of things that are apparently outdated, like Habeas Corpus.

14. I went as "windblown guy" a few years back
Just take an old suit (or dress, I s'poze) and buy a can of spray starch. Iron it out as if it was blowing, add a bent coathanger or two for support, and gel your hair so it all is blowing one way. Had I gotten it together in time, I would've had a hat, blown off my head, fake-halo style. :shrug:
