Happy (almost) Halloween!
Last night, the otter and I had a fun night of costumed parading and drinking! (No, I’m not referring to any bedroom-related activities; get your mind out of the gutter! I’m looking at YOU, David B!)
Our night started with a trip to Akron, Ohio’s Highland Square. This was one the first places the otter and I went together, back before we were even dating (we were in Akron for a job fair). This time, we went to shop at Square Records, a music store that has stuff I can’t find anywhere else. I bought The Boy Least Likely To’s The Best Party Ever and The Mountain Goats’ Protein Source of the Future…Now!, while the otter got a Steely Dan LP and a used copy of The Flaming Lips’ Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. Good stuff.
From there, it was on to Two Amigos Mexican Grill. The food there is a bit pricey (though not too bad), but they have the best nachos I’ve ever had. (I think they put sugar on them!)
Next, we were off to Kent for the Halloween festivities. I wore my Green Lantern Costume (I’ll have pics later), and the otter wore a black halo. The two of us met up with my brother and his girlfriend (dressed as a samurai and an obscure anime character, respectively.) We bar-hopped, watching the drunken partygoers make asses of themselves.
What madness ensued? Well, I was molested by a native american warrior brave. I watched Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart almost fight said native american for grabbing Marie Antionette’s ass. I told the Flash that Batman wasn’t around because he was a punk. I saw 300 (well, more like 30) spartans marching to victory or death. The cast of Super Mario Cart raced down the street. The otter gave my phone number to some guy who was flirting with her while I was getting drinks. I recited the Green Lantern Oath to curious onlookers. I told Shaun that he had red on him, and he slurred back “‘ows that fur a slice of fried gold!?!” Batman threatened me and cussed me out. I tried to stop a crime in progress (an indoor smoker). Several Justin Timberlakes had their dicks in boxes.
All in all, a good time was had by all, and some of us even remembered it this morning!

Loved the madness ensued paragraph. Really vivid.
the fried gold line is a classic.

Mind in the gutter? That sir, is a baseless accusation not worthy of the homeless person you probably urinated on after the aforementioned festivities, yes I am looking at you!
No, before you say anything, I didn’t nor have I ever done that, I am 100% absolutely positively half-certain you were about to before you read this.

My Halloween festivities will entail a party with 800 primary school-aged children. I envy you.
