a break

ok, people. it's time to get creative. i've used the last three brain cells i had left writing this week's column (that's still not done...GACK) and i need a funny idea for a halloween costume. and it has to be easy. like, so easy that i can put it together and still sing a recital the day before halloween. so easy that i can buy it with the $39 that i have in my bank account.

the ideas that have been thrown at me are:

  1. taking part in ron's group's "highlandtown prom 1988." while totally a funny idea, i'm too tired to do drag, too broke to buy a funny dress, and too vain to just wear a tuxedo.
  2. being the mallet to hilary's box of ol' bay and ashli's crab. while also a very funny idea, i told hilary that if i were going to be a hammer i'd have to be a "sexy hammer" because we're going to the gay club halloween night. though it's true, as hilary told me, that "you don't need to worry about it--they all know you there anyway," i insist on being at least a little sexy, at least one night a year. that doesn't mean that i have to be waxed and shirtless wearing glitter and white angel wings (GAG). or does it?
  3. the reluctant receptionist herself. this is the one i'm leaning toward because it'd be the easiest and funny.
but, dear readers, what are your ideas? help me out here. my brain hurts.

i think you should go as pentasa. if you want to make it sexy, just cut a hole in the crotch.

I'm going out as a "freedom fighter" or "militant revolutionary," funny enough i only had to buy a hat. I have enough camo, palestinian scarves and military gear to make it work. Solidaritat, Komrade!
