I'm thinking that my costume this year will be Cathy from the comics strip. Easy, comfortable. I've got approximately the right body type and hair style. I can use a plush dog for Electra. Scary, no?

Probably the scariest one I've heard of for a long time.

You'd have to go around looking distressed and saying, "ACK!" a lot.

Well, I mostly say "Eep!" but sometimes "ack!" I think I can manage :)

Do you have a shirt with a heart on it?

But yeah, scary -- I remember a Zippy strip describing Cathy Guisewite's drawing style as something along the lines of "it looks like she throws spaghetti on the floor and xeroxes it".

Not it the moment, but I can make one easily -- put a heart on some white cloth, baste it to an existing sweatsuit.

Know anyone who could go as Irwin? (hmm.. right name?).. that'd be fun ;)

It's Irving, and he really doesn't have a distinctive enough look for it to be worth talking any of the guys I know into doing it.

Ah. Damn, I haven't read comics in a bit. .. my bad! True.. he's kinda non-distinctive... hmm.. can get a friend to be your mom?

(I dunno why I'm trying to talk you into taking along a sidekick...)

Cathy's mother is a) a highly annoying character and b) a much higher effort costume. Furthermore, I will probably be attending what Halloween party or parties solo.

Heh, I could agree with you on that!! [about Cathy's mom...]

anyways, I'll stop being so annoying :)

I'm going to work on Hallowe'en as Milton. I even have a red Swingline stapler. It doesn't bind at all. I need to quit shaving the 'stash and quit washing my face so it breaks out.
