halloween & nerds

so hugawerewolf and me are going to be nerds for halloween. no not the little lumpy candy nerds. people nerds. i thought it would be funner to be something i'm not. yeah i'm a nerd. to me that's a good thing. if my mom calls me a nerd it's a compliment. i just don't dress like one because i get hand-me-downs from people who are not nerds and don't wear nerdy clothes. so i guess hugawerewolf is going to be a nerd for halloween and i'm just going to look more like one than i normally do. i guess we just couldn't think of anything to be so we just went with something both of us could easily do. my brother wants to be a traffic cone. (i gave him that idea! it was my idea!) i think i would rather be a cone than a nerd. (or maybe a cardboard box!) but i don't think i have anything bright orange i could wear and hugawerewolf wants to be the same thing as me. we've been the same thing as each other for 4 or 5 years. it started one year when i had the brilliant idea of being an old lady. so i called to see if hugawerewolf would like be an old lady with me. apparently hugawerewolf had come up with that idea the week before. so we were old ladies. (we also dressed up as the same thing the year before that but i'm not sure if it counts because we were both witches and it was a total accident. besides we were very different witches) anyway it's pretty much been a tradition ever since. but i think hugawerewolf cares about it more than i do. i don't really care much anymore. it doesn't really matter to me if we're the same thing or not i'm just in it for the candy. but since we're gonna be the same thing i guess it should be something we both have the stuff to make. so i'm stuck dressing like a nerd.
