I missed out on the Halloween fun this weekend because I have been sick most of the week. Total bummerface. I feel a little better today, but since the party was last night, that matters little. Glad I was planning to recycle a costume this year, otherwise I'd be upset I spent money on something I couldn't use.
I was going to dress up as Hermione Granger, I wore that costume in 2007, and the ex was dressed as Ron Weasley. The more I read the Harry Potter books the more I feel like I am Hermione. She's very awkward and opinionated and not a lot of people outside her really close friends like her. I know how that goes, plus, I can very easily make my hair bushy so he is an easy costume for me to pull off.
So since I just decided on the fly to write a post today - mostly because I was super excited to find my 5th follower! Thanks Amy, you rock! Seriously I'd post a lot more if I knew more people were reading this, not that I don't value my few followers, I just like greater benefits for my efforts.
Anyway, I decided that I would chronicle some of the Halloween Costumes I remember having through the years. So here you have it, in not so chronological order:
- I was a ballerina for too many years to count.
- In second grade I dressed up as Barbie (I happened to have a pixie haircut at that time which made that costume SUPER obvious, NOT).
- One year I dressed up as a book - I made a book costume out of a cardboard box, how's that for the most uncomfortable costume ever.
- I dressed up as a Renaissance Fairy Princess one year.
- Year before last I was a little girl playing dress-up/
- And, last year I was the prom queen - it was supposed to be a zombie prom queen, but I got lazy and did not do the make-up.
I might edit this later and add pictures, if I can find some.
:) Happy Halloween! You're sick and I'm nursing a 3 legged dog and writing papers. Trade ya?
ReplyDeleteNo thanks, I am working on my CV, only, I have NOTHING to put on it.
ReplyDeleteI actually found pictures of some of my old halloween costumes, including witch, Raggedy Ann and a ballerina...but I have no scanner to post them. *sadface*
ReplyDeleteIt's a shame you were sick! But yes, at least you didn't spend 50$ on a costume you couldn't use!!
