I haven’t posted on this in a really, really long time. Mostly, I blame vet school applications. I’m finally done turning all my apps and supplementals in. Yay! Anyways, for Halloween this year, KB and I did a couples costume. I know things like that are kind of disgustingly cute, but ours wasn’t so bad. I went as the big bad wolf and he was red riding hood. We didn’t get many good pictures of us or anyone else at the Halloween party we went to – they all came out pretty blurry, which sounds about right if I’m the one behind the camera.
Anyways, here’s one of both of us.

My hair looks disgusting and greasy. This is because I have really straight, really smooth hair and it just wouldn’t be messy enough for my costume. I had to buy this gooey stuff to make it look all messy and gross (or “beachy”, as the label on the goo puts it.) By the end of the night, when these pictures were taken, my hair had calmed down from really messy and fun to just looking like I hadn’t showered in awhile. Ew.
KB’s costume is basically what you can see here – a red hoodie. Pretty easy. Mine is below.

That is a flannel dress I got at Target on Halloween. It’s cute enough, but waaay too short to wear alone on a normal day. It ends pretty much where the picture does. For warmth, I had some cute knee socks that went with my costume pretty well. I don’t normally wear knee socks (or socks, period) but they worked here.
The party we went to was really fun. It was at my friend Sarah’s house and there were a lot of cool people in fun costumes there. My friend Chris was Anderson Cooper, which worked out really well. He even had a cool CNN type election map on the TV in the background. He wrote his own captions below the map – they were really funny. Also at the party were people dressed as salt and pepper, an angel, a kitty who’d used up all her lives, a superhero team, an old man, and Batman. Basically a pretty good mix of people and costumes.
Halloween!
