halloween & everything

I love Halloween.  Always have.

My mom used to make brothers and I's costumes.  I've been Batman, Superman, Alvin (from Alvin and this chipmunks) and even a clown. 

The past two years, I have gone with the whole vampire theme because of how easy it was. This year though, I am finding it difficult to choose a costume....and the clock is ticking. 

It is mandatory that we dress up at the dealership.  We actually get paid if we do and there are prizes up to $500 for the best costume. So why is it, when most the time I would rather be anyone but me, I am finding it difficult to choose which mask to put on or what to paint on my face. 

And if that was not enough fun, I get to drive to Tulsa and go to Jaime and Arna's Halloween party.  Lots of fun, I am sure, but the only downside is I have to be back in the city the next day for church.  Still trying to decide which would be the best, driving in that night after the party or 6 am Sunday morning.  I guess I will let fate decide.

The idea of Halloween has always excited me.  It is the one day out of the year that you can dress up as someone else and not have to be you.  You can do what you want or act as goofy as you want and no one will question you.
Face paint has always been my favorite.  Mask get to hot and with face paint, you can cover up your whole face, throw on a wig or hat and no one will know it's you. 

Lately, I have been contemplating the Joker.  However, finding a purple suit has presented itself to be a challenge.  I don't think it is a high demand suit color.  The great thing about the Joker, besides the face paint, is I can act as quirky as I want and no one will think otherwise.  Most the people won't even know who I am, which will be good for the identity protection when it comes to photos.

Don't really know the reason from writing this.  Just felt like writing.  These are the decisions I face throughout my day.

Well, have a great Halloween and B safe
