Starting Somewhere...
The party you ask? Which part would you like to know? The part where it doesn't rain here for 10 MONTHS but decides to at the very start of the party while I'm trying to FUCKING LIGHT CANDLES IN THE CEMETERY?
Or...the part where the circuit blew 15 minutes into the party and we didn't have power?
Or...the part where once Will re-established power, our BRAND NEW sound system that we purchased SPECIFICALLY for the party BLEW THE CIRCUITS AGAIN??
Or...The part where I screamed at Will's sister and told her that I was going to hold her responsible for ANYTHING that went wrong?
Or...the part where I was slip-sliding down a bunch of gravel on a hill in red cowboy boots, a Carmen Miranda skirt and purple afro and a "HO" goblet?
Or...the part where I maxed out on oatmeal raisin cookies for lunch before the party because I didn't have time to make anything while we were getting ready and then ended up blowing big farts ALL NIGHT LONG?
Or...the part where a scantily-clad female pirate was gyrating on me and stuck her tongue in my mouth while we were dancing IN FRONT OF WILL'S MOM??
Or...the part where a very sweet, dear friend became so drunk that while I was attempting to talk her out of her car keys at 2 am, she fell over onto her back launching her eye-glasses 3 feet behind her head and she didn't even skip a beat, but just kept talking...like it never happened...??? She just laid there AND KEPT TALKING...
Or the part where I got home at 6 am after suffering for 3 hours with an allergy attack and eventually turning into a huge drunk, snot-ball from all the hay that was spread all over the barn?
Will any of those parts do?
I promise to catch up and tell you everything. I'm compiling pics of the other bloggers that were there and will give you the nitty-gritty.
Until then, here are some teasers.
Will's cemetery. He made most of those tombstones. He also made the "wrought-iron" fence that encircled the graveyard.
And...he made the LIFE SIZE horse-drawn hearse with the driver FROM SCRATCH.
FROM SCRATCH, PEOPLE!!! (I'll post more detailed pictures of it later.)
Will and his pirate wench; Jeannine Kassity. Will also made his hat.
And he made the coffin...from scratch.
Will's bitches. We're so pretty. Yes, that's me on the right.
Stumble It!

Hmm, Jeannine made it into more posted pics than Will did. Was this the source of the tongue? Perhaps you are changing your perspecitve?
You ARE so pretty!
Great post. I love the "Murphy's law-ness" of it all. Spitting rain, busted circuits, blaming, farting, and indiscretion...
I still cannot believe the immense amount of creativity and work that went into making this party THE most spectacular setting for an event I have ever seen. It was splendid. It leaves Disney in the dust. Every detail was perfect. (Well, the tombstones could have been more aged--JUST KIDDING.)
Thank you SO MUCH. My hematomas will disappear by Thanksgiving, I'm sure.
Why weren't you Will's pirate wench?
I loooove your glasses!
Great, painful, post. No wonder you fell down in the gravel - that's one mighty costume.
Wow Kev, look at the orbs in the last three pictures. You do attract a certain crowd.
(If you email me the photos, I can look for faces.)
I'm so glad you had a good time - Will is a genius but then he has you, so he must be wonderful!
you had me at "we blew big farts all night..."
Please post photos of all scantily-clad guests.
Did you like my invisible man costume?
Love the "Skela-ho! Eh, a few blips in the screen, but I bet everyone had a blast.
I SOOOO wish I could have been there! Your costume is perfect. And Will? How clever and creative and TALENTED!!!! My God.
PS: sounds like someone wants a tin of oatmeal raisin cookies for Christmas!
Holy crap you're beautiful!
Wow! I am so hella jealous! Excellent work by Will, and as always you sure are looking drop dead SEXAY! Happy Hollerween!
That party was The Best Thing Ever.
Sweet lord. That looks beyond amazing.
Next time you do a Halloween party, I am selling organs to make sure Dan & I are there.
Props to Will for his amazing work. I am in awe of his talent.
And of course, to you, the best dead Damn Edna ever.

I am so sad. I wish I had been there. I would have come as a clam or something.
Well despite all of the "issues", it looks like yall were having a grand time ~ love your costume btw, you look just scrumptious!
I am so usually the drunken someone at the party, so I'm glad you didn't get to see that side of me (that way you like me way more, for a longer time). :)
Hee!
I love it! I would have totally dressed up like a cat with a hot plate strapped to my chest. And if anyone asked I would say I was a hot pussy. But if the kids asked I would just say meow.
You are gorgeous as usual!
