I'm going to the Hallowe'en Spectacular, and I'm really just debating if I want to wear a costume costume or just some fancy clothing. Hrm.

I think you kinda have to go all out for that! :P There might actually be a law to that effect, with mandatory imprisonment in Antarctica for those who are non-compliant.

I agree, but my first thought was to zombie it up, but that means all kinds of makeup and I wasn't sure I wanted zombie makeup if I were to take photos with Amanda/Jason after the show. They could be funny, sure, and I've already taken more normal photos with them both...but still...on the fence...

IN MY OWN OH-SO-HUMBLE-OPINION.....

The zombie thing has been done to dea---..... um, it's really been over-used, and it needs some rest.

Just about everything has been death, the trick is doing something that's been done, and doing it better. Admittedly doing zombie better then some other people have done it could require some awesome skill. But, a well done zombie is a always gonna be go in my book.

On that note, I vote for sparkles and vampire teeth!  ;D (no, don't do it, it was a joke!)

The whole reason I say zombie is that I just learned how to do really cool makeup, actually, and I only get to do it for zombie pub crawls. I've never been a zombie otherwise.

Everything else seems played out to me, though.

Zombie pub crawls, do you live in Seattle? (nothing makes me think of Seattle more then zombie themed events)

I have lived on both coasts (top and bottom of each [CA, OR, NY, SC, GA {and spent time in most others}]) :P and the antics that I have seen on the East coast pale in comparison to the antics I have seen on the west coast. There are a couple small pockets of fun though....

I'd like to dress up as a Coin Operated Girl and have a sign that says, "From the creators of the Coin Operated Boy, we bring you the girl!"
