Halloween @ Werk

Those of us us who live the "Office Life" know that its hard to pull Halloween off successfully at Work.  You don't want to be distracting and its hard to find a costume you can wear for 10 hours.

I tapped into my love of old Luchador films this Halloween and came to work as Mil Mascaras.

Not pictured in this shot - Blue Demon, my favorite Luchador.  El Santo was ok... but I ride and die with Blue.  Mil Mascaras was a mask I never owned, but wanted to have in my home in the event an opportunity arose to wear it.


The great pumpkin carve of 2014

The topic of Halloween came up a few months ago and I was ecstatic to hear that Rhiannon was into it as much as I am... the subject of carving pumpkins came up and we agreed to knock some out when I returned from my work road trip.

I got back on Friday...  in addition to wanting to spend time with Rhiannon, I really wanted to spend some time at the apartment.  I've been home on the weekends, but they've felt like a blur.

We made it over to HEB and we scored a number of pumpkins to carve and a few to spruce up the apartment.  In addition to picking up pumpkins, we picked up carving tools and a book of templates...  I expressed some concerns to Rhiannon about my carving skills, so we agreed that I would select one with a low degree of difficulty.

Rhiannon ended up selecting a vampire from the book and I agreed to do a spooky castle.
