Halloween 2009

This was a pretty tame Halloween in comparison to the last few ones I've celebrated. But, in my usual manner, I will recount the highlights and lowlights in a list format.

1. After no time to shop this week, I changed my original costume idea of an 80s girl to a punk rock fairy. Ironically, I found more components of the costume in one location then I ever would have with the 80s outfit.
2. I learned the scientific way to shotgun a beer. It was very informative.
3. The group I went with took the city bus from their apartment to 3rd Street in Portland. It was the craziest bus ride, which consisted of a catholic priest with a cabbage patch doll attached to his "private" area and a tiny gay guy dressed as Tinkerbell. Every time someone who wore a costume stepped on the bus, we would cheer and high five him/her. Eventually the bus driver was joining in with us. 
4. Two police officers gave us directions to McFaddens, our bar of choice for the night.
5. I was hit on by multiple zombies. Apparently zombies were totally into my punk rock fairy look.
6. My fairy wings started to get droopy throughout the night, which turned out to be a great conversation starter.
7. A zombie started dancing with me about halfway through the night. He was a terrible dancer, and the dancing ended when he started grinding his "private" area on me. He did give me a free bacardi rum t-shirt though. That was nice.

That's about it for the night's recaps. Definitely not too exciting. Although a tame Halloween where I was actually able to drive home at the end of the night was pretty refreshing.
