Tonight I went to my friend, Adrienne's Halloween bash. I must say it was lots of fun and there were great costumes. If you know me at all, then you know I'm not wild about costume parties. I just don't get it into it mostly because I'm not creative enough to come up with a clever costume. Once again, I came up with a lame one. In an effort to grab something last minute, my friend, Kirsten, and I headed to Party City to see what they had left. She bought horns. It turns out, horns are her trusty standby. She has more than one pair. I found a VERY nice 1st place ribbon.
I wanted to come up with this clever story when people asked "What did you win first place?" I even sent a text to someone I thought was clever enough but no response. So, I opted for the answer to that question would be "What do you THINK I won first place for?" That way, if someone had a clever answer, I could steal it the rest of the night.
Two noteworthy events occurred at the par-tay: First, our bossman came out! Everyone was shocked and I think he really enjoyed himself. Second, one of our co-workers showed up incognito. He walked in, got some food, and then walked out costumed head to toe. Then, he stood outside the house staring inside while we all made guesses as to who it might be. Once some of the girls chased him down and discovered his identity Mystery Machine style (those pesky kids), we all went on and on about how awesome that was....and rather creepy.
Once in Jamestown, we did what every other tourist would do. We went straight to the Visitor's Center. (In fact, we visited every visitor's center we could find!) Joel found his way to Alabama's flag and I went straight to the beautiful Tennessee flag.
