I’ve mentioned it before, but I love Thursdays. It means I’ve finished another work week’s worth of workouts (yea, rest day tomorrow!). Today I was up early to run 4 miles, then a weight session this afternoon. Is anyone else running in the early morn or the evenings freaked out a little this time of year? I run the same streets as the rest of the year, but with all the spooky decorations in the yards, I end up doing quite a few double takes. Luckily though, all the skeletons, zombies, and ghouls turned out to be fake and not real.
This Thursday happens to be my favorite holiday – Halloween! I love the challenge of coming up with a creative costume. This year though, I haven’t had a lot of time or brain effort to come up with a good one. We’ll see what happens tonight though. I’m sure I’ll recap tomorrow.
But for now, I picked a few of my favorites from over the years and thought I’d share…
The Zom-bee. Get it?
The Drag Queen Bee. Or Prom Queen Bee.
The most interesting Scott in the world.
The colonel. The bucket doubled as a beer cup.
The Geisha Boy
The touristy part of a city’s robot street performer.
Flamboyant Fiedel Castro.
The Guitar Hero
Hawaiian Punch
Alright, alright, alright. Matthew McConaughey from Dazed and Confused (Wooderson)
So there you go. Some more creative than others. My fave is the McConaughey one – it looks simple, but it took a TON of work to put it together. It paid off though, I won two costume contests that year!
What about you? What are you going to be this year? What was your all time fave costume? Curious – Which of mine do you like the best?

Those are belters!
Love the Colonel. Mmmmmmm….. chicken……..
Haha, thanks!
I have to admit that I am very impressed. While I LOVE the Juno one, I honestly think my favorite is Hawaiian Punch, for whatever reason. I love alliteration!
I’m glad you like it! Some people tend to not ‘get’ my costumes. Glad you do!
No doubt you have a sick sense of humor, but I’m OK with it!
I think we both do. To be honest, I’m secretly really tickled by the Fidel Castro one. Haha. Such a bizarre idea.
Another reason I know you’re pretty sick. But that is pretty creative, I can’t lie.
Oh wow! You nailed all of em. You would get so many props on the KFC Colonel in Louisville!
Oooh, I bet I would. I’ve also always wanted to wear the Dazed n Confused one in Austin (where they shot the movie), I bet I’d be a hero down there.
Hahaha OMG you’re the best Halloween dresser ever. My faves are the colonel and Juno.
Haha, thanks! I love it!
