Halloween Play Party
Still waiting on some photos before writing about the previous weekend, so here's what happened just this last weekend instead.

To be honest, I try to avoid going to parties or events two weekends in a row. I'm somewhat the introverted type, and social gatherings (i.e. anything involving a group of people hanging out and/or doing stuff) usually leave me feeling a little worn out afterwards, as opposed to energized or whatever. But I didn't hear about about this Halloween party after I'd already RSVPed for the other party, and this one sounded to interesting to pass up.

As I mentioned previously, the party was held at a hotel in a banquet room. One part of it was filled with tables to sit and eat, and then go through a doorway and you're in another room filled with various items to tie people to.

The theme of the party was "Medical Malpractice," so most people were dressed as kinky doctors, nurses, and patients. Though one creative group of people decided to focus on that second word, and went as malpractice lawyers.

But if you're brain works similarly to mine, your first thoughts were probably "casts!" and "straight jackets!" However, not knowing anyone local who does casts, and straight jackets being expensive, I was a little stuck as to what to do. Fortunately, a recently made friend knew of a nice woman who owns a leather straight jacket and would be at the party, and asked on my behalf if I could borrow it for the evening.

And so I got to spend several hours like this:

Go ahead and make your jokes about how this costume suits me. ;-) Fittingly, I happened to run into a Dr. Harleen Quinzel at the party.

The nice thing about the straight jacket idea is it meant I didn't need to worry about whether or not I'd get a scene in to make the night worth it. Instead, I could just wander around and watch the various happenings, or sit and listen to conversations, and remain kinkily entertained the entire time. If a scene did happen, it'd be a bonus, but it wasn't a requirement for the night to feel eventful.

I didn't even think of how well the boots would go with the jacket, until one of my friends made the suggestion. Though unfortunately, you can't see the main straps very well hidden under my hair.

The difficulties of being in a straight jacket? Can't itch my nose, of course. And it took some extra effort to "swing" my hair out of the way when it would fall in my face. Plus, I would've needed to ask for some help in order to drink some water to get rehydrated or such (it gets a little warm inside a leather straight jacket).

At one point my feet were getting tired, and there weren't any chairs in the play area (and nothing going on in the eating area), so I decided to carefully sit down on the floor and lean my back against a cage not currently being used. I wasn't actually sure if I'd be able to get back up! I was certain I'd end up having to ask someone for some help (but stubbornly trying to do it myself first is half the fun ;-)), but surprisingly I was able to maneuver myself back up with not too much trouble. A few people expressed disappointment that they weren't there to watch...and to also perhaps sit me back down as soon as I was back up so they could watch me do it again, heh.

The next morning I got a humorous surprise while walking toward the lobby to get some free breakfast, discovering that the room that was BDSM Halloween party just last night was now host to a morning church service.
