The Halloween Dilemma

My friend Beth's favorite holiday is Halloween. Every year she has a party with costumes. Every year I have no idea what to be. This year is no different. Please help me by giving suggestions as to a super great Halloween costume that doesn't require too much work, is not uncomfortable to be in all night, and doesn't require a dress or lots of makeup.

Hmmm... maybe that's why it's so hard for me to come up with something...

Meanwhile, Remy has picked out her Halloween costume. This was our conversation about it:

"Remy, I don't know what to be for Halloween."
"Aw, that sucks, Mom. I've already got my whole costume planned out."
"Really? What are you going to be?"
"I'm gonna put on a bunch of lipstick."
"That's not a costume, Remy. Lipstick isn't really enough."
"Sure it is, Mom. I'm going as a hockey mom." *

Who knew my dog was so political and super smart? She must take after me. Too bad she's not invited to the party.

Yeah... so... think of a costume for me!

*If you live under a rock, Remy is referencing Sarah Palin's vice presidential election speech where she told this joke: What's the difference between a pitbull and a hockey mom? Lipstick. Granted, Remy is not a pitbull, but it's still a funny costume.

Belly Rubs!

So, I got paranoid that Remy had fleas and they got in my bed (because I spoil her and let her sleep there), and that's how I got these bug bites along my right side which are currently driving me crazy. I checked her out and she was all… “What!? What are you looking for? I’m a clean dog! Wait... give me belly rubs. No, belly rubs. This isn’t a belly rub. You are completely useless! I want belly rubs. RUB MY BELLY!” Anyway, I didn’t see any fleas. Therefore, I think it was a rogue October mosquito.

I am itchy.
