A most Excellent weekend :)

There's something very satisfying about bucking a trend and turning up to a Hallowe'en party dressed not as a pirate or a witch (or other things with an excuse to show lots of leg and / or cleavage), but instead as a male Mad Scientist :) Someone, somewhere has photos, but it isn't me. I do, however, have pictures of the results of professoryaffle's baking marathon, including the pink wafer mausoleum and the Ace of Spades cupcake.

I'm not sure what to do with the tie I bought. It's covered in pigs, and is far too sweet to take back to the charity shop from whence it came.

I'm getting too old for more than a small drink. Yesteray was lost mainly to sleep, with occasional intermissions for Veronica Mars and Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service. And, once again, talking to louiselux helped get Yuletide pointed in a potentially successful direction :)

Tired today. Jasper decided to try to tunnel through the back door at 3am, then howl until I went downstairs and told him off.

Argh, I had forgotten there was another party going on, even in walking distance. Stupid jetlag...

Love the mad scientist costume and yes, the Carrie one is fantastic. :o)
The turnip is disturbing...

Glad you had a great time, though!

cabd and elliphant's parties tend to be quite strict invitation-only, from what I can tell, because of lack of space.

Carrie & the creepy maths teacher were both wonderful :)

Well, I did have an invite, just forgotten about it, as the only reminder I'd seen was robinbloke's.

Was the maths teacher the one with the round glasses, tie stuck in his trousers and pens in the shirt pocket? That's indeed cool and scarily close to an actual (and creepy) maths teacher I had in my 12th year. He sometimes wouldn't wear a tie but still have the top button done up. He also had really greasy hair or used some kind of horrible product that would make his hair look greasy and stick together in chunks...
Most of my other maths teachers had beards and glasses but not in a creepy way.
