Office Thursday-There's Been a Murder!!

Ok well there has not actually been a murder. But earlier in the year The Office featured an episode entitled "Murder" where the Dunder Mifflin Employees got some bad news about their jobs and Michael tried to cheer them up by playing....Belles, Bourbon and Bullets, a murder mystery dinner party game. This episode was pretty funny but more importantly inspired me and a couple friends to want to throw a Murder Mystery Party of our own. Well after like a month of planning, the party is finally going down this weekend in honor of $hanzie's birthday (which was actually like 2 weeks ago).

While the Office Murder Mystery party was Savannah themed, ours is going to be a Roaring 20s theme and here's a little taste of the costume that I'm working on.
I will have more on this party next week. But don't forget to watch The Office tonight (omg Jim and Pam have a baby now, I hope Pam's not on maternity leave too long) and those other awesome NBC comedy shows (I love you Joel McHale) . And if you are super in to the Office like I am, you might want to check out this awesome Q&A with lots of background info on the Murder Mystery episode over at Officetally, my favorite Office website.

PS-My favorite line from Murder was......
Michael-"Oh God, I can't think, need more Mullins."
I don't know, it was just super funny to me at the time.

MO-I finally got Brandon to reveal some of his costume to me and he will be wearing at least one of those things you listed.

I will be wearing many of the things you listed Mo, since i will crossdressing. That is actually something im a master at from last blog, costumes. My favorite part of the "Murder" ep was Angela's line "I was exposed to Harry Potter" as i like to quote from time to time.
