Hello you gorgeous human being! I'm glad you're here today. I want to talk about superheros today. Well, one superhero, actually. Superman. He's pretty great. Wanna know what else? It's probably one of the most common Halloween costumes known to man. I mean, what little guy doesn't dream about being able to fly, being an alien that looks like a human, and is super-strong?
Let me show you Exhibit A:
Yup, Ammon, circa 2010, at the tender age of 27. In a... are you ready for this? A youth sized 12 and up husky Superman costume. Yes, you read that right. Youth size. He was very proud that he got the costume for super-cheap, because it was a kid's costume.
I did not wear a youth sized costume... but I did go as Lois Lane. AND I wore makeup. I felt a little bit like a cradle robbing cougar.
But the best part of the night... I appreciate more now, because in the last year I started watching the world's best nerd show, "The Big Bang Theory":

Oh yeah, that's right... Ammon was challenging his inner Leonard, before we knew who Leonard was. And don't worry, my friend Michelle wasn't making out with him... just her Marilyn Monroe wig. It was a strange night. We'll leave it there.
I hope this went a long way in brightening up your Thursday, I know it made mine 10 times better! Shout-out to the ever amazing, hilarious
Dusty for inspiring this blog post. One of the most hilarious email threads I've been privy to in a Tennessee second.
Whenever I am looking for Halloween costumes - I always look in the youth section. Their costumes are a lot cheaper and a lot less provocative. No one needs to see me in a super short skirt. Ever.
ReplyDeleteI have the same costume.
ReplyDeleteI wear it to Wal Mart.
Too cute :)

ReplyDeletehaha. Must show Dan this one! (and he might even steal this idea) ... we love the big bang theory!
ReplyDeleteBAZINGA! {yeah, that's all...} Weren't we just texting about my crush on anything Sheldon-esque?
ReplyDeletelol wow. This is great! And I really like the Big Bang Theory, I just never watch it!
ReplyDeleteLord if this isn't the best blog post ever! I am so glad that this was in my day! I laughed so hard. He defiantly is a hero.

Hi Dierdre! I really enjoyed your responses as well! Glad we could co-contribute together! Those hippos are at the Denver Zoo... the big one is a representation of Burt, the oldest known Hippo in the world, who lives at the Zoo.
