From Minor Celebrety to Web








Well, I finally got these pictures uploaded from Halloween!

Our holiday started at a house party on Sat. night, where roommate, Sooze, was a spider, and I went as Rainbow Bright.

I became a minor celeb for the night with every women coming up to me at some point throughtout the night ecstatic to see their childhood memory personified.

Then on Tuesday, Sooze and I dressed up as spider and web for the work costume competition. While we didn't win, we did collect a cult following for the most original at the office.

That evening we headed out of the office to march in the Halloween parade where we met some Spaceballs and found Waldo!!

The crowds were great! Most in costume were in the parade, and the sidewalks were packed with spectators. While there were a few moments of 'too many people'!!, it was a great night in New York!

Great photo's and it sounded like a lot of fun. Is the Halloween parade a big thing in New York? I've heard of the Thanksgiving one of course.

Tod - I'd never heard of it before, but I guess it's a big deal here. It was fun! I'd totally do the Thanksgiving parade, but Sooze and I are going to visit friends in London and Liverpool.

Life - Yeah, I keep telling myself that no-one online will ever meet me in real life anyway, so who cares if they see a pic of me? Still, I'd be completely weirded out if I ran into someone on the street who called me by my blog-name! :-)

Halloween Parade? But.. but... when do you get a chance to stop a beg for candy?

Well, the parade didn't start till 8pm, so I think the little beggers got their candy first.

We didn't accept candy from strangers...mostly because the candy that was thrown to the crowd came from some gross ladies on a float

Stephen - Minor? Huh, me? I'm reaching for thirty here...just kinda short! ;-)

Indoors - I'll be there for Thanksgiving...I'm pimping myself out with this company and crossing my fingers that I get the job so I'll be there to stay (as long as the visa allows) by Jan! I will post pics from the Thanksgiving overseas, though!

4D - Yay! It's so cool to already have a group of sorts overseas! I probably won't have time to run into you guys during my quick Thanksgiving trip (Nov 23-27) with flying time and all, I'll only be there long enough to check out a few things and head to Liverpool to see a childhood friend...But in Jan., (if I get the job) I'll be there for who-knows-how-long! So we'll have to meet up for a pint:-)
