Halloween

We had a ridiculously good time this halloween. This is the first time i've been off work for it for roughly ten years. Yeah. Damn right we got down and boogied. Here's all of us at the start.

Brian, Bucho, Parsons, and Jess. 2 DC's, 2 Marvels. Awesome.

Laura and I. Ready for adventure. At least, any adventure that can be taken on with three fake guns and a crappy bullwhip i don't know how to use:

Ran into Lewis, who had a truly awesome Doc Holliday costume (he even had a little silver cup he was drinking from).

The Green Lantern. Badass.

Lantern and Lara:

MIGHTY THOR. Or Fabio. Or Thor.

So that's the first stop. Every year in Five Points they do a poker crawl, where you go to five different bars and get a playing card at each one. Then whoever has the best hand at each location when it's over wins $100. We lost to two laffy-taffy sorority girls that weren't even wearing costumes. This made Thor MAD. So mad that when we got to Zydeco (our final stop) he smashed The Green Lantern with his hammer Mjolnir.

Shortly after we were all friends again.

While at Zydeco, we met a few more friends.

This picture was supposed to be a close-up, but the wind was too intense. Ease up, Storm.

I've wanted to be Indiana Jones my whole life. I don't just mean for Halloween. Putting on the costume made me giddy (like a schoolboy) so you can imagine my surprise and delight when we ran into this guy. What are the odds? Apparently 100%, but i wouldn't have believed that.

He called me Dr. Jones. Anyway, here's some kitties:

So after the poker crawl we went to Phil's house for a tiny little party. That's when things got crazy.

Shaw, the inflatable buckaroo:

Laura and a man witch (get it?)

Phil as Wolverine. He had a mask to wear, but it was LAME. He had a wig that I spent an hour cutting and styling. It was too hot for his head, apparently. Christy was just AWESOMELY beautiful as Storm, and tied with Brian for best homemade costume.

Mike built his costume around a voice. If you know him, you'll get it. Most of you won't.

Shizz was a starving artist. It wasn't much of a stretch. All she had to do was starve herself. Her sign read something like, "5th year BFA. Will paint for food or booze."

Laura and Shizz, being beautiful:

Phil says no smoking inside, or you get the paddle.
