Finally!
Oh man, usually I have a Halloween costume planned at least a month in advance. Last year, I ordered a real, white nurse's uniform dress from Dickies (it was really hard to find; no one wears those anymore) and a little white hat with the red cross on it. I was NOT a sexy nurse, just an old fashioned nurse (though as one of the guys I'm seeing, Tony, puts it, I was a sexy nurse because I'm me). Anyway, this year, I had no idea what to be.
That is, until I posted a journal entry on OKC asking for advice. Most of it was dumb. However, my friend Michael (odin1013 on OKC) is in a zombie musical (Night of the Singing Dead) right now and he mentioned that you can get in for cheaper if you go in zombie costume. I've never been a zombie before and I prefer a more original costume. I also--even though I dislike the whole sexy-nurse/sexy-cop/sexy-pirate/sexy-witch/etc. phenomenon in women's Halloween costumes--want to be at least a little sexy and zombies aren't sexy.
So, I was thinking zombie...sexy...zombie...sexy. OMG! I will be a zombie prostitute! Lovers of Voltaire will understand, and it's amusing even if you've never heard of Voltaire. Plus, I pretty much have all the costume pieces I need already. Huzzah!
