Olivia and I had a great time at Liz and Mark's Halloween Party this past weekend.

I had no idea that my version of Magnum P.I. - complete with mustache and chest hair (which, as I was telling anyone within earshot that night, was "transplanted from another area") - would be an award-winning costume by the end of the night.























Anyway, when I get to a party, one of the first things I look for is beer (John).























After finding beer, we were greeted by the host, Liz.


















We also saw Todd in the living room, who doesn't look so happy that Olivia had to ask, "Todd, why are you wearing a pinata on your head?" (The reply: "Because I'm a pinata!")


















We took a quick group shot with Pinata-head, Natalie (peacock), Jared (Viagra-dispensing doc), and Ashley.


















We were also greeted at the door by a very scary Carrie (Sarah),























who wasn't so scary anymore after a couple beers.


















Olivia and Hattie weren't scared anymore, either.


















The party keeps rolling (get a load of the bubbles on Hattie!),


















and beer continues to be very popular.


















It didn't take long for Olivia to find Jesus (Andrew),


















and here's friendly neighborhood Kabuki host, Mark.


















Apparently, Kabuki Mark and Jesus got into a heated disagreement about something. Good thing Horny Cowboy Steve was around to keep the match clean and make sure that Jesus didn't hit below the belt. Check out the size of the rod on Jesus! My money is on The Almighty One...


















After the Holy Wars, Olivia found Princess Marta and her Jedi Knight in the kitchen,


















while Tina and I found more beer in the kitchen, too.


















Seriously, the beer is ubiquitous.


















After I-don't-know-how-many, the focus shifts to other things,























and then just plain goes out of focus (sorry, Jessica).


















Meanwhile, Caesar checks out Medusa's 'do,


















and I run into a Ange. What an Ice Princess!
Somewhere along the line, I seemed to have picked up an award ribbon, too.


















Yien finally shows up with a bottle of Johnnie Walker Red (and everyone simultaneously wonders, "Is Yien actually wearing a costume? Because he doesn't really look much different...").


















Yien shows affection for his favorite pinata, Eric, while Mammagram Machine Ken looks on.


















Anyway, it's closing time for me and Olivia. Thanks for a great party, Liz and Mark!
