Halloweenie Roast

40cakesSo I can't believe I didn't actually make a post last year about what goes down at work for Halloween. Huh. (And for those of you who don't know, this is one of those posts where you're not supposed to mention where I work in the comments. Capice?)
We're big on Halloween here. We order in a few kegs and start the drinking at 10am sharp. There are costume contests (on the intranet! high tech!) and competitions and races. We take pictures and send massive email spam promoting ourselves. Years later, people still will speak of "Man, did you SEE what she was wearing?" and "Oh dude, I remember that outfit, it was awesome!"
So I need ideas for a costume. I really shouldn't spend a lot of money, but I want it to be cool. I work with a lot of creative people, so I have to one-up them! Group ideas can work, too, as long as it's not anything too obscure (no cosplay, youse guys) or too massive. I was thinking of getting a group together to do Jem & the Holograms, but no one seems to be jumping at the idea, so there's a distinct possibility that I may be doing something solo. "Sexy" outfits are okay, but keep in mind there are PLENTY of women here who are far more daring and skinny than myself.
