Happy Halloween!
I actually completely forgot that it was Halloween weekend until I saw the Today show this morning. By the way, Matt Lauer as Paris Hilton is very scary! It's sad how holidays become so much less important as you get older. There's not the same excitement. As Steve mentioned we did get invited to a sociologists-get-loaded Halloween party, but that's not nearly as much fun as trick-or-treating. As I think back on my costumes, I was kind of a weird kid. I remember dressing up as a journalist, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Cinderella before the fairy godmother, a princess (not with a tiara, with a big cone hat that had a flowy scarfy coming out the top), a spider queen (I made that one up, it was jut black with a spidery-looking cape), and one year my friends and I went as the cast of the Wizard of Oz (I think I ended up being Toto). It was never the traditional witch, ghost, or beautiful princess. Looking back on my high school costumes is even worse. I went as a dead prom queen, a cheerleader, and then nothing that I can recall the last two years. It is never a good sign when your costume is what the girl who sits next to you in math wears on a regular basis. Point taken. And then it just dropped off! No good halloween costumes/celebration in the past four years! Steve and I thought of having a party, but we realized we didn't know enough people to invite. Oh well... My family is coming this weekend and hopefully we can get nostalgic over carving pumpkins and watching scary movies, even if it won't be a super-fun costume party! It's probably a little too chilly to dress up anyway.posted by Rachel at
