Halloween 2017

Friday at work was horrendous. It was like everyone wanted a piece of me that day... and got it. Acting for my director didn't help as most of the headaches was covering for her. Her job is hard and some folks that report to her (not me) make it harder for her than needs to be.

I slept in on Saturday. After mowing the yard, showering, and grabbing lunch, I spent most of the afternoon drawing on my comic book. Around 6 PM, I got my Halloween costume together and drove to northern Cincinnati for a Halloween party. I love the creativity of the gang who goes to this party. My diet was blown to pieces, but I admit I had a lot of fun doing it. And as usual, there was a photo booth:

KY Jelly
KY Jelly, Anyone?

Yes, I went as a tube of KY Jelly. I sewed the costume myself, printed the labeling on tee-shirt transfers and put them on, and made the tube cap out of a child's police helmet, a popcorn bowl, a small soup bowl, and lots of hot glue.

The costume was great for various lines, like "Excuse me, while I squeeze through." Others made similar lines, which makes me think the costume was a success.

A great costume. Your artistry fits in very well with the Halloween Holiday!

Wait. So you went to a Halloween party presumably attended mostly by Gay men, and you had a question as to whether your incredible costume would be a hit? Oh, puh-lease!
