For Hallowe'en, I decided to try going as Sgt. Donny Donowitz, aka "The Bear Jew," from the movie Inglourious Basterds. I planned on acquiring some suspenders and a baseball bat from one of the local thrift stores, but they proved impossible to find in time. From now on, Rachel and I are going to attempt to acquire costume pieces throughout the year instead of a few weeks before the holiday. Since then I've cut my hair and shaved my face, but not before I put a decent effort toward No-Shave November in solidarity with my brother.
