risky halloween business.

Confession: I’m all Halloween-d out.

Seriously people. I’m thankful it’s November because it means Halloween is behind us.

Other than my love for pumpkins and consuming an exorbitant amount of fun size candy (because when they’re that small, you can’t eat just one), I’m not a Halloween nut. Combine that with the fact that I’ve been celebrating Halloween since Wednesday night and you can begin to understand why I’m ready for it to be OVER.

Wednesday was our Senior Pub Night, where we rent out a great bar just for the senior class and have all of our transportation provided and bond with our classmates hang out with our friends we already have.

My girlfriends and I decided that we were over the slutty Halloween thing. We wanted to be comfortable. (It’s a theme in our house.) After much searching and planning and scrambling at the last minute, we came up with the idea of being Tom Cruise from Risky Business. Yes, ALL OF US.

We had the whole look down, sunglasses and socks and all, with one minor alteration: we skipped the tighty whiteys.

I know, I KNOW — it’s not really Risky Business without the tighty whiteys, they’re so epic, they make the whole outfit, OMG IT’S BLASPHEMOUS!

But let’s just think here for a moment: I’m already practically naked. I’d like to retain a little nugget of dignity in the pants region, so I settled for a black pair of men’s boxer briefs, complete with a penis pouch. (Which I found very helpful to store my keys and a $20.)

I’ve got to say, bouncing around a bar pantsless and tubesocked is incredibly exhilarating. I highly recommend it if you ever have the opportunity.

So Halloween was a success, and now I’m looking forward to heading home to Chicago to stuff my face for Thanksgiving. Also, I’ve already seen Christmas decorations in stores so it’s also time I start complaining about that.

    I’d say you were right to go for a little more security in the downtown region. People who wear just the tighty whiteys are asking for it.

    YES – THAT MEANS YOU, TOM C.

    I saw a group of girls all dressed as Tom Cruise from Risky Business when I was at the bar. But they took it a step further and all had Rock Band guitars! Like in the commercials! That was good.

    I can’t believe you stored your keys down there- HA. Maybe I”ll start wearing mens boxer briefs on the reg for some extra storage. It could catch on.

    Who needs pockets, right?

    I’m so not into Halloween either. But my “date” was Cookie Monster and it was pretty adorable.

    And yes, let’s start bitching about the Xmas decorations/music.
