You know you’ve got a good friend when she moves just under two hours away, but still makes sure you are on her list for her first Halloween Party in her new house. You know you’ve got a UBER-FANTASTIC, BEAUTIFUL, STUPENDOUS friend when she e-mails you to say you can have first dibs on her spare bedroom. I mean, c’mon! Crash space is at a premium in the city!!!
Courtney, I *heart* you!
And since I’ve let Election Day come in between the event and my post, and my dear friend already blogged about our wicked weekend, I’m just going to relate a few Halloween rules that I abided by this weekend:
Halloween Rule #2704: When a very sexy bumblebee asks you to come to her holiday shin-dig, you clear your calendar!
Halloween Rule #3227: It is totally OK to impersonate an officer of the law on October 31… so long as you do it with fishnets and a garter belt holster.
Halloween Rule #0198: If you take one Halloween party and you add three friends who now live in different parts of the East Coast…
… you get a PARTY!!!
Halloween Rule #7976: When a friend volunteers a random, unopened sex toy (in this case, a short whip known as a jump bat) to help accessorize your costume, you say, “Thank you!” followed later by, “Ohh! One more please!”
Halloween Rule #4003: To thank this most magnificent friend for a fun evening filled with laughter, dancing, surprises and costume changes, come prepared with breakfast for the morning after. My choice? Baked French Toast Casserole, which waits patiently in the fridge until you’re ready to pop it in the oven for 40 minutes… right about the time you’re stomach will have settled with a cup of coffee and a cake pop.
Alright! So, what’s the next holiday we can celebrate?! I’m ready to clear my calendar… 
Ahhh… honey! We DID have a blast!
Up next: My Annual Thanksgiving Brunch
I cannot wait!! Love you!!
Awesome costume!
