Revenge of the Nerd Date
Well I sure showed that quiz I posted about last week. Saturday I wondered about what I would dress up as for Halloween parties and Monday night, but I knew I wasn't gonna dress up as no stinkin' candy corn cocktail watiress. A couple hours, some tin foil, a few flowers, and Bryan Norton's father-in-law's old tux shirt combined to make - a "Nerd Date". Sounds pretty lame, right? Oh, not so.
I stole the heart of the prom queen at Saturday's party:
And at the Halloween parade on Monday, a random crowdsperson wanted to get a picture with me (while someone in the background was raptured apparently):
All in all, the old "Nerd Date" costume proved a faithful standby. So next year, when you don't wanna be Darth Vader, Nick or Jessica, Harry Potter, or a "Sexy (insert anything here) or "Dead (insert anything here also)" return to the ol' standby and go with Nerd Date. People love the headgear.

Ok, this may be kinda lame to comment on your own blog but i just realized that if you click on the top picture and enlarge it, you can see in the background of the party scene, 3 other partygoer friends who were dressed as a donut, coffee, and a cigarette as a group costume, all homemade from cardboard. big hit of the party.

Um, is that the refulgent glimmer of a mustache that I see? Perhaps it wasn't the costume that attracted the ladies.

Um. Please don't ever say "touche" again - no matter how much it looks like "mustache." It sickens us. You can just as easily say, "oh, you got me," or something like that.
