I've dressed as the following for Halloween:

Joe Boxer
Death
The Mirror from Snow White
The Mirror from American McGee's Alice
Whatsherface's Door from Monsters Inc.

There have been other things, but they don't matter.

Death

Okay, that's just sort of awesome. Were you a kid or an adult when you dressed as that, and was it the traditional kind or the Neil Gaiman one?

I was an adult. A friend of mine had rented out a small theatre and was showing a couple of his favorite horror movies and calling it a Halloween Party.

I did the skull-face with makeup and I used a pruning saw for the scythe. It had an adjustable curved blade, so I set it at 90 degrees. It was scary looking because the blade was kinda rusty. The theater had the one guy there to keep an eye on things. We showed him our invitations and then he said, "Wow, is that REAL?!?"

I should have had my wife go as Gaiman's version of Death. Ah, hindsight.

What's your user name on the NaNoWriMo site? Can I add you to my buddy list?

My username is offhanded. I picked it a while back, don't ask why. What's yours? Oh, and yes, you may add away!
