what BOO do I do?

Halloween is 17 days away and every year our company goes all out. Decorations are hung, there is a costume contest at an assembly where orange and black cupcakes are served along with tons of other sugary crap and a full hour of children "trick or treating" throughout all three floors of our offices. The company use to hold a full-on department decorating "theme" contest until tempers flared and feelings were hurt at the time of judging. Some winning departments were viewed as having an unfair advantage over others depending on size and willingness of individual employees to play dress-up (it is not mandatory by any means). Over the five years I've been here, my department has dressed/decorated to the following themes:

1. Rock & Roll Stars - we all dressed up as solo artists or bands from the 80s. My boss (at the time) was Robert Palmer and another coworker and I were the back-up girls from the video for Simply Irresistible. She and I wore little black outfits with heels, bright red, vamp lipstick, our hair slicked back and toy guitars around our necks. He then lip sang the song while we did the dance number behind him with blank, supermodel stares (we watched the video several times to master the moves and exact glazed-over look those models had).

2. A haunted graveyard - by far our most elaborate theme. We created a mini graveyard with toy tombstones, fake spiders, rats, ghosts and dry ice. We all then dressed up as ghosts and goblins. We ended up scaring the daylights out of a little boy who couldn't have been older than four. He screamed so loud when one of the employees jumped up from behind a desk made to look like a coffin and yelled "Boo!" that I do believe the child may be traumatized for life. My boss put an end to any scary themes after that.

3. Pancake Boot camp - we were all soldiers at a boot camp where we served fake pancakes. We wore fatigues, combat boots, whistles and war paint. We then marched up and down the halls chanting in unison "I don't know but I've been told, IHOP's pancakes are the gold!" That was my personal favorite since it captured such team spirit (and it was easy to dress for), but we didn't so much as get an honorable mention at the time of judging. So much for team work!

Then, in the last two years, they decided to nix the department themes and instead let each employee dress up as he/she wished to enter a costume contest (we've always had the costume contest, but by getting rid of the department theme, individual creativity flourished). The categories have been: Funniest, Scariest, Best Homemade, Most Colorful, Most Creative, Best TV/Movie Star, Best All Around Sport Figure. I've won three times, once for most colorful:

Gypsy


And twice for scariest:

Ghoul from the graveyard:


Regan, the little girl from The Exorcist:

But this year, I'm at a loss. Personally, I like to create a costume on my own. That's part of the fun. I don't like store bought in the least. So, I'm thinking of maybe dressing up as Marilyn Monroe or Dolly Parton (I would then sing Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend or Working 9-5). The boob stuffage alone would be hysterical considering how itty-bitty-tittied I am. Or, I was thinking of coming dressed as a lightening victim, hair sticking straight up, or vampire victim, neck oozing blood. Hmmm...

I'm not real motivated, but I have to get on it. I'm one of the employees who is expected to dress (given that I always have) and because it's all in good fun, I can't fail this year.

Any suggestions are welcomed!!!!
