Dress Up Your Favourite Turtle

Yes gals and ghouls Halloween is fast approaching meaning that you don’t have much time to pick out a costume. This was an interesting weekend for me filled with the rediscovery of Nintendo and pumpkin carving. Hopefully I’ll have a picture of the demonic botanical entity I summoned up in the next little while. I must say that I enjoyed the carving much more than I thought. There’s something about stabbing a fruit with a knife that just screams Halloween. On another note I came up with the brilliant idea to roast the seeds for a wonderful healthy snack. I encourage each and every one of you to do the same. There is a suggestion that I think you should follow though to get the most out of the experience. Although you’d think that putting them in at 560 F is a great idea it only works when you leave them in less than an hour. That suggestion doesn’t work if you prefer your snacks to be full of charcoali carcinogenic goodness. In other totally random news realizing that I have fun playing Super Mario three has made me understand that I am indeed getting old but that doesn’t mean that I can’t dress up on Halloween!

I’ve been invited to countless Halloween events and the thing they all have in common is they all want me to dress up. In fact one invitation put it well that address up is fun but it also gives the less fortunate a chance to finally get to wear a mask. This year I’m at a loss for costume ideas which is where I can use your help. I was thinking that being a pirate would be fun but I have no idea about the things I would need. If you can give me cheap costume ideas as well as what I would need if I pursue the pirate idea I’d really appreciate it. I’d also like to know if your dressing up and if you are what you’re going as.

Note: that you might even get to see me in make up for the first time. Also note that falling asleep in the middle of a conversation with your girlfriend is generally frowned upon and snoring heavily doesn’t seem to ameliorate the situation.
