Halloween Par-tay

Oh the awkwardness.....knowing only two people in a house party of 60 people......50% are chinese (or something like that) and you can't understand them. Well, we can say we've made about 30 new friends...all of whom we won't be able to recognize b/c of their costumes....Johanna's 'bag of jelly belly's' were a hit and every one was curious to know who the mystery man was under the giant afro, fake chest hair and treasure trail. We had a great time! The night consisted of pumpkin carving (which we won), pumkin-gutting (which Johanna won), and apple bobbing(which nobody really won because these girly girls refused to mess up their precious makeup!), Dancing, and costume contest (which was rigged, 'cause we should've won....they were probably just mad we won everything else(justkidding) and decided to give prize to the Count Chocula Box and the One-eyed, One-horned, flyting purple people eater: who hilariously had a Barbi leg hanging out of her mouth) Ben was a hit and won the limbo competition (with a giant 'fro on his head) and even did "The Worm" in front of the judges. Ohhhhh the fun which can be had. Getting to the party was another story.........Suddenly the table has been turned and we were 'The Weirdo's' on the bus. After many sly comments and walk-by pokings of Johanna's costume, we eventually made it to 49th St and walked the ramaining 20 blocks to the party..... it was mind-numbing -5 and wind chill of -6.....ya....horrible. At least that what Ben thought in his skin-tight see-thru, polyester retro shirt, barely held on by a few popping buttons. On the other hand, Johanna was in her blimp-like costume was creating a humid eco-culture with so much condensation her butt was soaked by the time we got to the party. Ben had to walk quickly enough to stay warm, but slowly enouh to keep from popping out of his shirt...! And amidst his complaining Johanna was happy in her little rainforest.
So...maybe our blog isn't as insightful and thought provoking as Kjersti and Amy's and not near as well writted as Jen Gilbertson's..... but this us....we're weird and we like it..... So if this is lame and useless and boring thats ok...if you dont like it create your own and join the dorky world of blogging.... wooohoo.
