I hope everyone’s Halloween was fantastic, I wish I could see all my readers’ costumes! This year, since there were so many great things to do both Friday and Saturday, I decided to do a different costume each night. It was pretty chilly here on Friday and I wasn’t quite happy with my Tank Girl costume yet so I opted for zombie Dolly again. It worked out well and I was happy how many people recognized who I was. Jacob was The Unabomber, but somehow I don’t have a single picture of him! These pictures are actually from the Chicken Lays An Egg zombie party, but I wore the exact same thing. (First two images by Rachel Elliott)

Zombies like to drink too! And you can’t tell from this angle, but my glass is a giant cowboy boot mug.

I’ll have a post just about the party up in the next few days too- I’m waiting on a few more pictures.

Maya’s Lydia Deetz costume turned out pretty good too- the best part was definitely the hair! I wish I’d have gotten one of her with her prop camera, it definitely made it more recognizable.

I have some more to come of my Tank Girl costume as well, so stay tuned!

I really wanted to make a Halloween post to show off some awesome costumes I saw, but I neglected to do so because I was too busy living the fuck it lifestyle pretty hard. This mostly entails hanging out with really fun people, riding around in a 1982 limo, and doing whatever you want (short of hurting other people or stealing from anything non-corporate). Mark Twain had the same idea, he just said it a million times more eloquently. “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

And it lead to one of the most fun weekends of my life I’d say. My brother recently moved to Columbus to get paid to go to school, but then realized that being a college dropout is much more fun; an idea I stand behind strongly. So he bought a 1982 white limo and dropped out, (accepting his hillbilly tycoon fate by doing so) which enabled us to bring 11 people and my dog back to Columbus to live the fuck it life, at least for a weekend. We partied with some really good people on Halloween, and I was very impressed with the caliber of homemade costumes.

Best costume by far, and all homemade!

My brother, the zombie beauty queen (Miss Flint 1994)

Jacque Cousteau & Steve Zissou, best couple costume

My boyfriend as the Dude.

I was Walter, but I don’t have one of us together yet.

So the morning after this obviously high-class shindig, our resident fantastic chef, Carey made us a feast that could not be beaten.

And we spent the rest of the day recovering, watching It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, and the thrifting until we dropped. Here’s the best picture of the weekend, all 14 of us just after we all piled out of the limo behind us.

I highly recommend trying just a little bit of fuck it in your day today. See if it works for you. I bet it will.
