Costumes
Someone at school asked me why I liked Halloween so much. As far as holidays go, it is my favorite. It definitely has the fewest unpleasant family memories linked to it, as holidays with my family usually consisted of some form of screaming, some form of violence, and gifts. Fuck all of you!... I mean, please pass the salt.... Happy Holidays.... thanks for the gifts...
Deep down I like the idea that for one day, you can be whatever you want to be. For a kid who wore a mask every day that he didn't want to wear, it was a liberation. I got to try on a totally different face, behave differently, and not be the person that everyone knew.
There is also all the candy (both chocolate and eye based). Any holiday with candy being passed out will always be good for me.
I like being creative, such as my best work- building a giant phallus with working load.
This year, I went with something fun, gay, and purchased:
South Park Satan
The rest of the Halloween Pics, especially of NEW, IMPROVED Medieval Derrick are on my flickr link.
Funny thing about my costume. First off, wearing the mask became frustrating very quickly. Maybe being someone else isn't nearly as fun now that I'm more comfortable with who I am. Maybe I just like peripheral vision now that I'm cranky and old.
Last but not least, plushies will enjoy my one video of the night. My camera rocks!

I kinda find it funny that you have the privilege to say that you were a walking penis for Halloween.
Friend 1: What were you for Halloween?
Friend 2: I was a pirate. How 'bout you?
Friend 1: A giant walking dick.
Friend 2: Oh. Cool.
