Woohoo...I just won one of the costume contests at work. Yeah! I've had a dry streak for a few years, but I'm back! (and no Zeek...there were no tassles involved. ;))

Wow not even tassles!? That must have been one skimpy costume.

Was this the vegas themed thing?

Yep...but I was so uninspired I went out on my own. I'm such a rebel. My co-worker did as well, so I don't feel too bad. Whenever we do a department theme it's just a little to predictable and Vegas was sooo predictable. although one person did a white tiger...her boyfriend is going to be Roy (or Zegfried...can't remember which) for tomorrow.

Anyway...I do feel a little bad because I think my costume is going to be an overdone one...but I figured it wouldn't be here at work...and it was easy. I'm in all pink, with pig ears, nose, tail and then a pair of wings. I added H1N1 to my shirt because after talking about it last night, no one was getting it and it was going to be another grey's anatomy thing where I was explaining it all day long. :D

Whatever...it won me a $25 gift cert to Chevron. That'll last almost the whole year for the scooter. :D

yeah that's going to be done to death. And I don't get how H1N1 makes a sexy costume. I'm trying to picture it. It's just not working.

It's work: sexy and work don't mix...at least my very conservative workplace don't mix (although one of the owners dressed up as this guy:



It's truly frightening. But he gets to ignore all the "appropriate costumes only" warnings, I suppose. Picture someone who like almost exactly like this wearing it:



It's it hooters lunch day for you?

Strategic cutouts Zeek.. that's what makes it sexy:)

LOL That's an awesome and topical costume Rugbug... congrats on the win!
My sis's thoroughbred definitely not off the track. He was a very well bred ( terribly expensive) hunter jumper so he was uber skittish over everything. .. but pretty , oh so pretty. He showed under the name California Chrome
