At Last, My Costume is Complete! (mostly)

Last night, triadruid, matchgirl42 and I went to dinner and then stopped by Target on the way home to pick up much-needed liquids (those being red wine, windshield de-icer fluid, and Dran-o). While we were there, a side trip led me to discover that Target is carrying ruffly Victorian blouses now. I purchased one immediately. My Victorian Sex-Change Joker costume is complete (bwa ha ha). Well, almost. I still have to pick up some green hair dye. This will be a problem at the office, but for a week, they can bloody well deal.

I'm sort of unclear about what makes me think that "Victorian Sex-Change Joker" is even a valid costume concept. It just popped into my brain the other day and I glommed on to it. Hopefully green hair + Joker facepaint will be sufficient to identify the character without my having to explain it very often. It's not like it ever occurred in the comics, you know. (I think. I will admit to not having read very many Batman comics of the side-story variety... apparently there was a Viking Batman?)

Also, gaming tonight, hooray! triadruid and I need to stop by the store and pick up "bad guys" -- house rules require all enemies to be represented on the map by candy. You kill it, you can eat it.

In which our hero appears to conform to the standards of Content-Free Friday, but actually doesn't.

Not that I don't love reading about when you all threw up last, and whatnot, but we seem to spend a vast amount of our journaling time answering lists of questions that were probably written by 15-year-olds. I'm personally inclined to harness that tendency to appease my curiosity. Therefore, I present:
( Ten Questions, The Answers To Which I Will Genuinely Find Interesting )

Since I was sort of hoping this would reach meme-level, here's what I'd like to see: answer the questions, here in the comments thread, or in your own journal. You don't have to answer them all. To perpetuate the meme, you could either re-post my questions in your journal and ask your friends-list, or, if you don't like my questions, you could make a post including these instructions and replacing some or all of my 10 questions with questions that you're really interested in seeing people answer.
