In Need of Creativity

Shite. It's already Halloween again, and still I have no costume.
I want to be something different this year. I've been GI Jane. I've been a hippie.
It's time for something outrageous.
I could dress up as Ashlee Simpson, carry a radio and blare her cd, and lip sync the wrong words. That could be funny.
I had thought of going as this guy at work, Darrell, who always insists that everything is fraud. But that would only be funny to the people at work. Damn, he has a wrap around too - I could totally gel my hair in a swirl atop my head. That would definitely be funny!
Any ideas?

YOU SHOULD GO AS DARRELL! That would be the funniest costume! I'm laughing just thinking about you in a wrap around hair do. That's awesome!

Yeah - it's funny in theory, but nobody outside of the office would get it, and I may or may not get fired if I come in to work looking like that. Oh man, I was gonna get those frumpy shoes that he wears too...brown pants and a white shirt. I might even add pit stains just for kicks. But alas, I'm in need of steady income, and being fired doesn't look too good on the resume...

Ugh..the stress! I don't think I'm dressing up this year so no stress for me. Yippee.

No, we're going to have friends in town. And they have a four year old. That party's no place for kids, believe me. Those people are crazy!!!
But we usually dress up at work...
This man I work with, Darrell - who actually torments me for a living - and I are thinking about dressing up as each other. Which would be so funny because we make fun of each other all the time...
He wants to come in with a girl wig and open-toed shoes (which I'm famous for in the office) and evidently act a little on the dingy side. And I want to wear a beard and elevator shoes and declare that everything is fraudulent. It would be funny...

Go as Lady G. That is if your hair is long enough to cover you and you can borrow someone's horse.

Hmm - ya know, I live in a town where it's not totally uncommon to own horses...
And I could fashion a hair piece.
I LIKE :)
