I like how someone not knowing who Sam is referring to might think she is referring to the zombie below her.

It was alright. I ended up getting a last minute store bought costume. And since the halloween store only carries either super slutty outfits, or super expensive costumes... I went as a flapper because it was moderately priced, and had a knee length skirt.

we saw brett's friend chris's band play. chris and the singer in the band dressed as ghostbusters. complete with homemade light up proton packs. their entire costumes where handmade, and looked exactly like the movie. i was super impressed.

and, a girl at the bar stole my beer. that never happened to me before.
weird, huh?

I'm alright. I can't afford anything at Free People either... I hate them for that. Thinking of selling my eggs - that'll afford me extra spending money.
