I hope you had fun on Halloween. I went as a haute couture pirate, which went over pretty well, actually.

I wanted to be the Chupacabra and decided to tell everyone that I was the Sexy Chupacabra. I wore a fur coat, a matted old wig, devil horns, and a creeepy plastic mask (unrelated to Chuppy in any way, it was just in box of costumes, I think I got it at a tag sale when I was ten or something). I also carried two straws to demonstrate the goat sucking action.

No one knew who I was. Even when I told them I was sexy Chupacabra then laughed and said, “the sexy part’s a joke, I’m just regular Chupacabra,” they still didn’t know what I was talking about. And believe me, Chupacapra is much more widely known than the shell. But the straws came in handy because I couldn’t drink the nice apple cider someone gave me through my mask, so I guess it was okay in the end.

And I did make a kid scream, but it was kind of a jokey scream. He didn’t run away.
