Captain On Deck

It's repeating a costume used before, but I have it on hand and it still fits, so I'm in my WSFS uniform and will be heading to the office in a few minutes. Happy Halloween!

Don't feel like you're alone -- I'm wearing the old Romulan-cum-Vampire piece (trade ears for teeth and Voilà!). It's old to us, but it's new to the folks we share it with ;>.

Well, yes, but I've worn this uniform to work before, so it's a repeat there as well.

Now, if I were ever to shed enough weight -- nearly 100 pounds! -- to get back to what I weighed in the early 1990s, I could dig out some costumes that would really shock people.

I remember at least one from Cascadia -- and I'm with you -- If i could shed enough weight, there's some costumes that could trot back out and surprise the hell out of folks (not to the extent that you could, mind you, but it's harder from my side of the fence ;>).

It's the pink one from CascadiaCon that I'm thinking of. I had it dry cleaned and bagged after I last wore it -- it was a custom-fitted, well-made outfit, not some cheap wear-once-and-destroy costume from a Spirit store -- and I'd love a chance to wear it again. People who have only known me in the past decade would be, er, surprised.

That's the one I was thinking of too (it was quite well put together) -- and yes, I expect they would be ;>.

Hell, I wore makeup today (the vamp requires at least a little ;>) and got shocked reaction from this group. I've grown fairly granola as my weight has increased over the years...

Stumbled onto a couple of older incarnations of this Rom-Vamp piece today -- would love to get back into those... job changing soon and I'll be near my new gym (and an hour's less round trip on the commute) -- hmmmmm...

I don't suppose you're likely to drop a hint...?

Heh! I would definitely be surprised, since that isn't my image of you, but I don't shock that easily.
