I’d offer but I still don’t know if Angie needs the car that day or not.

_pokes her head into the thread_

Uh, got room for one more? I know I’m a bit last minute but I promise I won’t be to disruptive. I’m planning on attending as \*\*Punha’s \*\* arm candy and wear a little black dress. Does that help my chances any? 🙂

But what’s your **costume**?

Put 'pun in the dress. That would work for me the boy is so cute.

Yes, of course you’re welcome. Bear in mind (I say this often) this is not an exclusively SDMB get together. We’ll have people from work, Baby Kate’s friends from day care, SD people, old college friends, some folks who work around the house for me, and random people on the street.

So be prepared for a wide selection of people.

Oh, and the food is now paid for:

BBQ Chicken  
Vegetarian Quiche  
Pigs in a Blanket

And assorted other stuff.

Costume? Patrick said I should go as Sex in a Black Dress, but I think I’ll just buy a witch’s hat or somethin’ and pretend I’m wearing a costume. I did suggest the dress thing to him but for some reason he wouldn’t do it. Hmm, I wonder why?

Well what kind of party would it be if you didn’t have a wide selection of people? 🙂

Hey, I figure if **Geobabe** went as Sex in a Black Dress (or her breasts, depending on your view, it could work for someone else.

And having seen **fizzy** in the dress in question (not **Geo** ’s), I think it does;)

I will be trying to pull off a costume change possibly mid-party. We’ll see how things shape up:)

You say that now, but just wait until you’ve gone through puberty. I’m sure you’ll have nicer breasts than all of the other girls in sixth grade.

Wow. Disgusted in the Pit yesterday and scared in MPSIMS today.

Thanks, **Edward the Head!** Email sent.

**Jeff,** just let me know before Saturday morning one way or the other if you please. 🙂

Maybe I should try to find a black wig and fake mustache and go as Saddam Hussein.

You could dress up in camo, bring along a fake rifle, and come as The Sniper. That would be the scariest Halloween costume at the party.

It’s about as funny as the Saddam Hussein costume will be.

Neidhart, I sent another e-mail back. Also if anyone else from the No VA area would like a ride e-mail me, hopefully before tomorrow afternoon. I can fit 4-5 people in the car.

All right, I’m still not 100% sure what my costume will be, but I’ll definitely be showing up. It’s time to see what interesting things I have lying around here…

Aw damn, **ultrafilter** … if I’d seen your post earlier I coulda offered you a ride, but I doubt there’s time left to get your email and shoot off directions. I should be checking email early-ish tomorrow (today, really), though, so if you want to chance that I’ll be reading email then, shoot me off an email at [iampunha@netscape.net](mailto:iampunha@netscape.net) and I’ll give you directions to my place from 66 (west or east. It’s the exit for vienna/nutley street either way).

**Fizzy** and I will be leaving around noon. And any of the dopers I’ve emailed recently (there’s a decently long list) will have my last name (_so_ not gonna post it here), from which you can find out my phone number, if you need it.
