Halloween
Wednesday, October 12, 2005 at 9:15AM I was invited to a Halloween party a few days ago, and it was explicitly stated that I must come in costume. I immediately chuckled, "I don't do that. I don't dress up for Halloween." I've yet to find a sympathetic ear. Everyone I mention it to has chastised me and gone on to insist that I simply must participate in the masquerade.
I queried my ex-wife last night during a routine Brenley update for some background. Had I ever done the Halloween thing? "Once", she replied. I now remember her and a friend convincing their respective boyfriends to dress up as babies. The trauma must've caused me to erase the experience. I only recalled it when she dredged it from the depths of my memory.
So what the hell am I going to be for Halloween? I don't want to be the one asshole that doesn't dress up at the party. I certainly see the fun in it. You'd think, with my relatively vivid imagination, I'd be all over this.
So loyal readers, what should Cory be for Halloween?
UPDATE: There is a stunning consensus amongst my friends that I should go as a pimp. I'm not sure what they are trying to tell me, but I have some ideas.
UPDATEDER: Jaxn is sending me ideas from Zoogster Costumes.

A flamboyant pimp outfit definitely seems appropriate.
You are the 3rd person to make that recommendation.
Dress up in a really nice suit. Put a sign around your neck that says "I'm sorry". There ya go, you're a formal apology. :)
That's actually a very clever idea Ivy ;)
