Halloween 2009

"Hi my name is Rachel Berry, and I'm here to sing 'On My Own' from the seminal Broadway classic, Les Mis."

Since no one really understood my "costume" (I even had my raincoat on as protection from slushies), the other interpretation of my outfit was "Japanese schoolgirl." I really liked the outfit though (complete with knee high socks and my loafers), and kind of wished we wore uniforms in high school. But only kind of.

Another noteworthy costume: Burger King. He even brought and shared $1 double cheeseburgers! It was funny to see the Burger King sway and dance to music while drinking wine straight from the bottle.

Last but not least, here is Joe as a World Phucking Champion!

Halloween '08

Our pumpkin has evolved from last year.

We got our Christmas tree from this nomadic-ish guy at California and Diversey last winter, so I was excited that the same guy was selling pumpkins. I like to support his overpriced but seemingly authentic business.

Mordecai built in some nostrils and one fang with his manly power tools. Notice how the nostrils and fang are like mine--two dots, sharp.

It is on display in our window for people entering our building to see. It is not nearly as elaborate or conceptual as Jenni's though. Everyone should check that out!

Happy Halloween!
