Nice legs!

The costume is all about the legs!

I got a lot of people asking me if I was wearing the kilt "like a true Scot"...

I'd be curious to find out ...

This year, children asking for candy at the Squiggy household will get 1 healthcare, an Obamaphone, and a lecture as to crush the bourgeois with a slightly higher tax rate.

Well, I'm hopeful that I'll still want to be Sherlock Holmes next year, as all the Halloween events I was planning on have been canceled. The kids and businesses were troopers though, Trick or Treating in my neighborhood in Brooklyn in full force. A gang of costumed children between the ages of about 5 and 9, were giving out candy to all the grown-ups who passed by, and they dumped handfuls in my grocery bag. I asked them why they were giving away all their candy and the oldest girl (dressed as a pirate) said that it was her idea, to cheer up the grown-ups after the storm. I got a lump in my throat and went all teary!

^Awwww... that's pretty awesome.

My girlfriend and I at our work's Halloween festivities. I'm in different costume because my kilted-Satyr costume was not work-appropriate for some reason.

Here, I'm just a average nondescript Mad Scientist (in no way related to Dr. Horrible). My partner-in-crime is in her homemade Assassin's Creed costume.

My 1980s 7-11 Clerk Costume

My co-worker and I went to a Halloween office party on Tuesday. She wore a cowgirl outfit, and I had a Hogwarts robe with the Gryffindor logo.

That is just wonderful. It brought a tear to my eye as well.

^It was really wonderful.

Here are my nephews, in all their adorableness!

They're frickin' cute!

Here is a picture of my daughter, Elizabeth, as a fairy for Halloween.

Satyrquaze · November 15 2012, 03:01 PM

She's beautiful.

Those are some big kitties!

MHT1138 · November 15 2012, 10:30 PM

Thanks Satyrquaze

Those are my brother's cats, they are Annkitten, we call him Annie, and Lando Catrissian, Lando. They are big, especially Lando. He had a cat named Obiwan Catnobi, which of course they called Ben. And he has another cat named Mister Spock, who is much less friendly.
Elizabeth loves dogs and cats- like her mom
