Happy Halloween!

With Halloween rapidly approaching, I find myself once again facing my annual dilemma.  What costume should I wear when I go door to door trick or treating?

Please help me make my decision! Time is running out and I need to be prepared. Hey, there's a lot of Snickers bars out there just waiting to be put in my trick or treating bag!

As the sun goes down and I finish up my day in Real Estate....

 

Should I go as the always cute and adorable Panda?

The always cute and adorable Panda

Or does this Transformer costume suit me better?

Transformer Man!

Perhaps I should consider being the Court Jester this year?

Oh, decisions, decisions, decisions.

Maybe dressing up as a samurai works best.

Superman?

Super Craig!

Spock?

Spock anyone?

An astronaut?

Craig in Space!

Oh please help me!

Jimi Hendrix?

'scuse me while I kiss the sky!

Whoever this guy is?

What the .....

Robin?

da da da da da da Robin!

What to do? What to do?

Time is running out. I need your help. Please vote today before it’s too late!

Results will be posted in a future blog…along with pictures of course!!!

You really make a great J Hendrix--- no matter which one, they all should get you a load of candy. Hit enough homes and you may get a listing too. Good luck!

Jimmy Hendrix suits you due to your musical background but you could actually choose 2 costumes and hit all the areas twice! Good luck in making your decision Craig!

I like Spock, myself. BTW, my husband once was the "Samurai Plumber" with plunger numchucks (is that how you spell that?) He also, one year, was a RE yard sign.

Hi Craig:

Keeping in the musical theme, my thoughts were with Jimi Hendrix.

Don't forget to re-string your guitar, lefty version!

I voted for Jimi as well. I guess your friends want you to dress up as one of your musical idols and not someone or something that does not suit you well! We must really, really like you!

John - Hey! That's a great idea! If I knock on enough doors, I might get another listing!

Sandy - I do have a picture of me as a vampire. But it's not finished yet. I'm hoping to finish it before Halloween.

Wanda - Good point Wanda! Two costumes = double Snickers!

Carole - PollDaddy! It's so easy. And it's free!

Leslie - Samurai Plumber! Now that's funny! I like it!

Nevin - Are you beating yourself up and going as a bruise again this year Nevin?!!!

Marc - Once all the votes are tallied, the costume will be revealed!

Craig, one Holloween I was talked into being a "Bag Lady" complete with pantyhose!  I've never been so uncomfortable in my life...so I don't blame you for taking a pass on the Hooter's outfit.  But just for the fun of it, why don't you work some of your photo magic to let us all see what you would look like as a Hooter girl? 

By the way, "happy, fat and content" was a very disturbing sight!

4:13pm • #35

For a minute there when I saw "Robin," I thought you were planning on dressing up as ME! Except I don't usually wear red. I figured it out just in time.

I have cast my vote. Can't wait to find out which ensemble wins!

Cheers,

Robin

Dear Craig,

I voted for Jimi Hendrix, but I want to see your Hooters Girl photo! That would be something else!

;)

PS. You could go as a house with a big "sold" sign on the front.... Of course sometimes you have to leave work behind and let your inner self/Hendrix come out!

Craig, I went to the "Apocalypse" post and took the test...there were some question's that I could not answer or would not...take your pick...anyway the test wouldn't let me finish because of missing answers...very funny!  I remember in the late '60's a company came out with "Manyhose", so the Apocalypse has been a while in the making.

Charles - Charles, Photoshop for Dummies is a wonderful book. I started with that and just learned a new technique each time I wanted to figure out something. Highly recommended if you want to get over that learning curve hurdle.

Betina -Let's just say that I'm no good at basketball, but I'll do some serious damage in a challenge of miniature golf!!!
