they aren’t all bad
i thought i should put something positive about this whole costume-sales experience. some people really are creative!
one girl going to a 1980’s theme party is dressing up at a wuzzle. remember that short-lived disney cartoon with combination animals like the bumblion, eleroo, and butterbear? that made my day!
i finally convinced someone to go as belatrix lestrange!
the guy who bought the bodybuilder suit (a flesh-colored suit stuffed to look like muscles) made be giggle. he was so excited.
props to the two people creating a harvey dent/twoface make-up and wig–that is a courageous undertaking. i hope they bring me pictures!
and i love the girl who bought the cute marie antoinette dress. she also has a prosthetic piece that looks like a cut throat held together with safety pins. her date is going as an executioner. my faith in 15 year-olds is restored!
My professor and my director - who also happen to be husband and wife - had to go to a Hollywood Monster themed Halloween party this weekend. He wore a black suit with a list tacked to his chest and she wore a red dress with her hair all crazy and sticking out. What were they? Black listing and the Red Scare. I LOVE THEM!
