So for the past few weeks, as I've read all of your awesome costume ideas for this year and hilarious photos of Halloweens past, I have had zero idea of what I wanted to dress up as this year. Joe and I don't exactly have huge Halloween plans this year, so I was almost tempted to just let a costume fall by the wayside. My backup plan was to just recreate my favorite costume ever. A few years ago I went as David Bowie circa the Aladdin Sane album. I've had some okay costumes over the years, but I feel like that one really knocked it out of the park. I even matched my pumpkin to my costume!

However, I felt entirely unoriginal just recreating a costume I had already done, so it was back to the drawing board. Finally it dawned on me...Where's Waldo!! Waldo is one of the classiest cartoons ever. Plus, we have matching hair and glasses. It was simply meant to be. One white beanie and a roll of red duct tape later, I was ready for my closeup...if you can find me...
