YARRRR Pirate Monkeys!
Things are settling down in Ottawa (although I still haven't bought a bed!) and this weekend we inaguarated our new apartment with what should be the first of many parties.
The theme: Pirate Monkeys!!
Quite a few people dressed up (mostly as pirates without incorporating anything to do with monkeys), and I was impressed with the enthusiasm. We also passed some time telling each other piratey jokes like:
What's a pirate's favorite appliance?
A toastAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
And my personal favorite:
What's a pirate's best feature?
His BOOTY!
We also gave each other fake tattoos with markers which ended up rubbing off on the walls when people leaned on them. The good news: we are going to paint anyway so it doesn't matter.
I asked someone what they thought of the party. They said, "Overall, great party. Name tags might have been nice since there were so many people I didn't know. And it was great that you didn't get mad when people broke things".
The next morning our house looked like a pirate monkey exploded-- pieces of monkey costume everywhere and assorted pirate paraphernalia all over the place that people left behind. Now I have a few more eyepatches and swords. Yippee!
Here are the piraterrific pictures!
