It's Damn Near Halloween...
And I don't even have a costume...When I was a kid, I would start planning my costume weeks, if not months, in advance. OH HOW SAD MY YOUNGER SELF WOULD BE TO SEE ME NOW!..
In my defense, I WILL be dressing up as a hockey goalie on halloween, but that's because I'll be playing....Hockey...As a goalie...Anyway...
I WAS gonna be a "vortex." You know, dress head to toe in black, with some random objects adhered to me. I would then walk around taking "stuff." That's what a vortex does...It sucks...Things disappear...
Yeah, never mind...
Last Halloween, I dressed up as Indiana Jones...This was, in fact, a reprisal of what I was when I was 10...The saddest thing was, I had lost some of the components of the costume in the 20 years since and, as such, was forced to substitute a sassy little Mary Kate and Ashley purse (which I modified with a rifle strap) for Indy's pouch...It all worked out and, luckily, I still can wear the pants and shirt when I dress up to go for fondue or whatever...
So what are YOU people doing for Halloween?
