I’m in a great mood this morning. It could be the giant bag of candy corn I housed upon waking up at 6am, or it could be the fact that tonight kicks off HALLOWEEN WEEKEND, 2009!!

I’ve been preparing for this day for months now. I found a group to costume-it-up with, set a very strict partying schedule (chock full of awesome drinking games!), and even made my own candy corn infused vodka (twice…I drank the test batch back in August…). And now the time is here! There are only a few short hours (and another XL bag of candy corn pumpkins) between me and my favorite weekend of the year.

After last year’s costume debacle (I went as Rachel Zoe and everyone thought I was an Olsen twin…) I decided to go with something a bit more obvious this year. The costume is awesome, but not only is it not sexy, it’s so bulky I couldn’t make out with a guy if I wanted to! But that’s OK – I made out with The Joker in a corner last year and couldn’t get his makeup off my face for hours.

But enough about me.

I wanna know what everyone else is gonna be this weekend. You gonna Lady Gaga it out? Perhaps do a little Mario Kart? Or are you just goin’ for straight-up skankified? Share your Halloween costumes below. I can’t wait to see what everyone else has up their sleeve (or super short skirt…).

Real creative, ladies.

Every week I make a list of ten things. Whether it’s ten words/phrases that piss me off or my fave leading ladies, you can count on me to countdown every Monday the same way you can count on Jon Gosselin to be an epic Douche Bigalow.

In the spirit of the season and my favorite holiday of all time, I’ve decided to countdown the ten worst Halloween costumes imaginable.

As a dedicated Halloween goer-over-the-topper, my mother never once let me buy my costume. In fact, to this day, I can admit that I’ve only had one store-bought costume as of last year: Whoremione Granger. That’s it. And I still regret it to this day. Guilty of some of the below? Check out CollegeCandy’s better alternatives.

10. The slutty bumblebee
Firstly, horizontal stripes are a no-no, no matter how much of a stick you are. Secondly, a slutty bug? Really? Of all things? Thirdly, confession: bees are actually the scariest thing in the world to me, so frankly it just upsets me to see them in any form. Especially large, at risk for nipple slips and holding a beer.

9. Naughty School Girl
Admittedly, I am guilty of this one. Looking back, I’m ashamed that I just slapped on my old uniform and passed off what I used to wear daily as a “costume.” Apologies, Sister Pat.

8. “I’m Drunk”
You ask, “What are you supposed to be?” Usually a bro answers with this. Holding a red solo cup. Real creative. Read More »

I can’t believe I almost missed tonight’s episode of The Hills. The biggest episode of the season! Not only did Whitney get the job at DVF (which was a total shock to me!), but Spencer finally got Heidi drunk enough to marry him!

Good thing she had that random white dress on hand!

I really need to focus most of my attention on the Pratt wedding (because, let’s be honest, there is much to be discussed), but first I must say this: for the first time in the history of The Hills, tonight’s episode made me cry. Yes, laugh at me if you will, but Whitney’s dad was so cute and I couldn’t help but cry when he gave her a goodbye speech. Oh, and I also cried when Whitney got out of the limo at the airport. What was with that flannel babydoll dress? Did she learn nothing since her first day at Teen Vogue??

But none of that matters, because Spencer and Heidi got married. In Cabo. Drunk. I don’t know which part of the evening was worse:

- The fact that Spencer “knows what Patron does to [Heidi]!” and just kept giving her more until she agreed to marry him.

- When Spencer told Heidi, “I’m madly obsessed with you…I pretty much keep you from the whole world.” That guy is seriously one step away from Mark Wahlberg in Fear.

- Or when Spencer told Heidi that she makes him a nicer person. Anyone else want to know what he was like before Heidi? The Joker?
