Vampilot, zombie and me

PhillyGirl made the Top 10 in the costume contest with her leg chewing zombie! One of the cutesy girls said that girls "don't go gory" anymore, but we are the exception! Vampilot Shoreturtle also looked excellent. Turns out he won the adult costume contest at a 5K today. Applebees GC!



Carrie White! There were a few people who knew to call me Carrie- they were proud of themselves for knowing. Other club dingbats said "bloody hippie" and "dead girl".

The night went fast, and we even ran into comic artist Rob Reilly. We all drank some Jamisons.

I watched Carrie last night on TV. Tonight I am dressing as Carrie and going out with PhillyGirl and Shoreturtle for Halloween to a big club where the main costume is Slutty ____ (Cop, Nurse, etc). But then there are creative and decent costumes.

I noticed these things in Carrie, being America in the 70s, that would NEVER happen today-

• The gym teacher was smoking in the principal's office.
• He had an ashtray on his desk.
• Travolta and friends were drinking beers in their cars (he did try to hide that from the cop)
• Some prom dresses had long sleeves and a high collar (now 3 napkins are the avg. prom dress fabric)
• Tommy wore a tux with blue ruffles
• They mentioned you could get a tux for $10
• Tommy drove a red truck, but then drove his parents car to pick her up. Now every kid has their own new car at 17 (driving age in Jersey) and never has to borrow the car keys.
• Carrie was using the card catalog (although she was in 231s, religion, and telekinesis is in the 100s)
