Halloween on Halsted Street

Here it is, y'all. My last minute idea of what to be for Halloween was...

The Riddler!


And seriously, this costume was TRULY last minute!

I made the "question mark" sweater a few Halloweens ago, so I when I went into Beatnix at 6:00 p.m. last night, I bought the hat and a "Little Bo Peep" pink shepherd's staff. I got home, drew a question mark on the hat, put black tape all over the staff (I think that was a rather brilliant purchase if I do say so myself), pulled those boots out of the closet (this was the first time I had worn those with clothes on) and I was ready to scream "Riddle me this, Batman!"

Philip was everyone's favorite Sesame Street superhero...

Super Grover!


We even ran into The Cookie Monster on Halsted Street!!!


Then, arch-nemeses collide!! My Riddler met up with Philip's friend Manny as...

Robin, the Boy Wonder!

Y'all know my Robin fetish. Yum. But I was a good super-villain. I didn't take advantage of him. But I hope Manny keeps that costume so I can call him some Saturday night for a little Meta-Human Booty Call.

And here I am with our lovely friend Eric who came as "The Most Important Meal of the Day," Breakfast! (See the eggs and bacon on his hat, which Philip made, by the way), and beside him is super-cute Simon... looking up... at... something...


Hope everyone had a safe and Happy Halloween!

ooo love the Riddler Stephen, he was always one of my favorites. I think you've inspired me to do a Saturday Seven post...

Stephen R. said...

LOL gayporn - I will DEFINITELY pass on your compliments to him. You're right. He is. :)

Whim - Thanks, sweetie.

Polt - Philip is extremely adorable and thanks for enjoying my Riddler.

Shirley Heezgay - My riddle for the night whenever anyone asked me for a riddle: "Who's got two thumbs and needs a blowjob? THIS GUY!!"

Dirk - You should have been there, baby. But then again, I'll bet San Fran for Halloween was Heaven! And thanks for enjoying my villain and my smile.

Stephen R. said...

David - I do, but I didn't want to shock the children! :)

the blogger formerly known as yinyang said...

A+ work on your costume - especially considering the procrastination.

Stephen R. said...

yinyang - Procrastination is an understatement for my life. I'm am very much a Scarlett O'Hara "I'll worry about that tomorrow" kind of boy.

I've never worn an outfit made out of curtains, though. For the record. :)
