I don't need a reason...

When I met Winkorama, I knew I liked her right away. We're friends for a billion reasons that I won't list, but to underscore the theme of our friendship, I'll share a couple choice anecdotes.

Exhibit A:
Scene: Me & She online discussing upcoming photo shoot. I previously uploaded a series of inspiration photos including a few Liza Minnelli Cabaret shots.

She: So, this is why we're friends:
I was able to cobble together a reasonable Cabaret-esque outfit from my closet. :)

(15 minutes of costume planning follow involving various words like: feathers, fishnets, eyelashes, t-Straps, blue eyeshadow, satin dresses, fans, patio chairs, emo wig, black garter belt, sassy panties)

Exhibit B:
Scene: Me & She online discussing getting together tonight for dinner. For the uninformed, I store a large amount of holiday decor/costume paraphernalia at her house for lack of storage in my apartment.

She: Do you need anything from my house?

Me: Gosh I don't think so, I know you have all my Halloween decorations...
Could you please bring the butler to dinner tonight. I need him.
don't worry about why. :P

(exposition: I am totally joking about the animatronic butler...I was just trying to think of the bulkiest holiday item I had stored at her house)

*time passes*

She: I finally found his head, I'm on my way!

ME: OH. MY. GOD. I was totally joking! I'm so sorry! HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA!

She: I thought it was a little weird, but hey you're clever...Maybe you had something planned for the photo shoot.

*insane laughter follows*

PEOPLE!

She didn't question WHY I would need a 6' tall animatronic butler for a photo shoot, she just went downstairs and dug through a heap of stuff to find him. AND his head.

Are you starting to get it?

I am STILL laughing about that. Picturing myself looking through 18 boxes of assorted, creepy Halloween stuff looking desperately for a dismembered head, and NOT QUESTIONING WHY YOU WOULD NEED IT.
