What should I be for Halloween?/ I really miss my friends
I have no idea what I am going to be for Halloween and it is causing me major anxiety. I sent out a mass text yesterday to some select friends, asking them what they thought I should be. Here are their responses in the order they were received:
Cliff said: 
Pineapple
My brother David said: 
The Hamburgler
Zach said: 
Frida Kahlo (with two heads or something)
Rachel said: 
A gypsy
Noelle said: 
Captain Planet (the found pic is far out so click on it)
Jordan said:
Ziggy Stardust
Jessie said: 
Agnes Martin
Manos said: 
“generally, I always thought you would make a good dictator.”
Schwartztol said: 
DJ Dru
Alice said: 
the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina
And last but certainly not least, 
Irina said: 
“a potato sack…OF THE APOCALYPSE!!!”
Do any of these ideas sound good to anyone? The crew over here thinks that I should be a pregnant woman, but one who wants to dress sexy on Halloween. So far, the frontrunners are Pregnant-Sexy-Kitten or Pregnant-Sexy-Nurse, but if I do it, I want a really convincing belly. Any suggestions? Another option: Dolly Parton (an homage and not a mockery.)
In other news, I miss my friends. I wish they weren’t all having Halloween without me. I realize I can’t remember every New Years, or St. Patrick’s Day, or Labor Day, or any other calendar landmark for the past five years in New York, but I remember with clarity every single Halloween. They were always the best.
This was Manos’ response when I told him I felt like I have lost all my friends:
“They don’t go away, just like petroleum based shopping bags.”
…which makes me feel a little better, and then a little worse.

that’s mine. not for you. scroll to the one with feathers. but for real….
you could be a confused person trying to be orthodox jewish. the full outfit, everything right but instead of peyes you would have curls made out of paella. cuz lotsa people don’t know what peyes are called… not real paella cuz obviously nobody wants to attach shrimp and stuff. this may not be funny to anybody other than me. but you may be another person who smirks slightly at this.
okay. taking 30 seconds to write that has left me with NO clue whats going on in law school so back to class…
