Dressing up in costumes,
Playing silly games
Hiding out in tree-tops
Shouting out rude names
- Peter Gabriel

That sums up blogging pretty well, I'd say.

Of course, I don't have much in the way of tree-tops or other arboreal splendor around here, but COSTUMES...

That I can do:

Tiffany of Blown Fuse has trouble choosing between schoolmarmish and sweatergirlish. I don't care which one, as long as I get to stay after class.

VW Bug of One Happy Dog Speaks can't stop bragging about the gorgeous Florida weather. Warmth & sunshine & low-80's temps that let her get away with wearing this form-fitting little number while Northern folk like me are setting fire to our keyboards just trying to stay warm.

Matty O'Blackfive must do his tanning at the same place as John Kerry, or else I'm otherwise lost at explaining his freakish skin tone. And judging by the teeth, I'd say he's got a little hillbilly in the family tree.

Sally of Whimsy Capricious was too busy fending off attacks from her dapper-dwarf neighbors to actually post the picture herself, but she DID show me where she bought her outfit. Suddenly I'm thinking that letting women in the Navy wasn't such a bad move after all.

Teresa of Technicalities is sporting firey red silkies this week. I'm obsessed with undoing that top button.

Anathematized1 of Rivers of Blood is wearing... well... I'm not really sure. It kinda looks like she just finished some sort of kinky 4-way with the Blue Man Group, but I could be wrong.

Contagion of... um... nowhere yet... insists that despite the rigid pole and comely wenches, there is NO symbolism in this picture:

Pam of Pamibe shows off her son-in-law, who - I suspect - has been to one too many Alice Cooper shows.

Boudicca of Boudicca's Voice has both her and her husband taking the red pill. Who can argue with black leather? Although I can't for the life of me understand the need to wear sunglasses indoors.

Eric of Straight White Guy proves all three quite handily by showing off his brief stint as a millionaire playboy.

Didja ever notice that women always seem to go to the bathroom in groups? That's just weird. Why don't they do FUN things in groups, like... well, YOU know... *AHEM*... Anyway, Tammi of Road Warrior Survival shows us that blogging can be a fun group activity, too. If you dress for it.

Although she's a little shy about posting her own picture, RWS of Right Wing Sparkle hesitates not a moment to reveal the looks of myself, Matty O'Blackfive, Greyhawk of Mudville, Andrew Sullivan, and Jeff of Protein Wisdom.

Father O'Johnny of Closet Extremist gets ready to hear your confessions.

I (Harvey of Bad Example) am going to the sunny shores of Jamaica next week, so I thought I'd try on the swimsuit I bought the last time I was down there:

Whether it still fits, I leave for the reader to decide.

Johnny-Oh's entry made me realize that the ladies need to help us indulge our Catholic school girl fetishes next time:

Since I'm going on vacation, the next Carnival of the Pajamas will be posted on November 20th, but the same rules apply:

Post a picture of yourself (or a professional model whose picture you copied off some web page - like I'd know the difference anyway) in your favorite blogging attire. Leave a permalink in the comments to this post, send a trackback, or e-mail the link directly to me at harvolson-at-charter.net.

If you have trouble hosting images, you can send me the picture, and I'll post it for you, along with your description.

If you don't have a blog, but you're feeling particularly creative, same as above.

Entries due by 12pm CDT, Saturday, November 20th, and I'll post the round-up Saturday afternoonish.

And if I missed your entry, give a holler in the comments or to harvolson-at-charter.net
