All Dressed Up With Somewhere to Go

Halloween

is lurking just around the next cobwebby corner waiting to pounce 

on those who don't think ahead to produce a costume.  
C'mon, you're not going to wear that

faded orange pumpkin shirt again are you?

Let's find out what are creative friends are wearing this year.

 Eldus is going to let down his hair and wear his Gene Simmons facepaint because the little woman gets such a kick out of it

Arlene is boycotting princess costumes this year 

and vows she will cut off any synthetic Rapunzel hair with her scythe 

as she trick or treats as the Grim Reaper

Bobby is wearing his gi and carrying his karate trophy 
when he works the neighborhood for treats 
because he hasn't put it down since the awards ceremony

Lavinia favors combining an eclectic amalgam of styles in her costumes; 

hair from Snowball, her Pomeranian, 

eyewear from Aunt Gert, 

gold chain from Uncle Vincenzio and 

hair accessories handmade at YMCA summer crafts camp

Summer and Sylvan are going to wear their roller dancing outfits for another year 

because last Halloween they scored 4 full pillowcases of premium candy 

due to efficient trick or treating on roller skates

Carlton is going to stay home and do his part to improve the health 

of neighborhood children 

by handing out individually packaged dried plums 

and cards with a link to his website

Put up or Dress Up

I know, I know.  You think you are all prepared for Halloween because you have been buying a bag of candy every time you go to the grocery store.  But, ahem... if you check you may find that the 14 bags of snack size Snickers you purchased have all disappeared.  If you can't find them, turn around and look at your bum in the mirror.  That's where I found all my preHalloween candy.  


On to the next thorny quandary: what costume are you going to put together to wow your friends and neighbors?  Let us turn to the man/woman on the street for answers.

The Hendersons are dressing up as Sensei with split personalities

The Darlingham brothers want little Delvin to join them as the Third Musketeer, but he insists on going as the famous "Law and Order" D.A., Fred Thompson.

 Sven won't put down his knitting needles long enough to show you the bodystocking he crafted honoring Freddy Mercury of "Queen"

The Clementines are going as a family of feral foxes

Clarence has grown out of his Spiderman suit and lately he has thinking about becoming a pacifist so he is probably going as the Quaker Oats guy

Donnie is going crazy this year.  He's going to borrow an oboe 
and dress up as a member of the woodwinds section

Ignacio is going as a Republican so his exwife won't recognize him

Sparky is going as a Navy guy as portrayed by a someone from the cast of "Glee"

Norm and Daisy are going as Darth Vader and Chewbacca

 
 Mrs. Schneider doesn't care what the rest of the family is doing.   This year, she is determined to go as "Snooki"
