By the way...

By the way, did I mention that Halloween turned out differently than planned? So the peacock outfit did not work out so well. I was trying to make individual feathers (because real feathers are a bit expensive). And after about two hours of working and employing some friends for their help, I realized that the effort required to be a bonifide peacock was a little more than I could offer for the evening. So plans changed.

A friend was putting on a costume party, and I wanted to be a part of it, so as soon as I got home from work, I ran upstairs to my bedroom and began raiding my own closet. I found this all gold sequence dress I had purchased at a garage sale years ago (I knew that would come in handy someday) and did my hair and makeup. Then, after a plain piece of white cardboard was painted with black letters, I was transformed into Vana White.

The Halloween party was a blast. I saw a shark, a Lego man, movie stars, a race car driver, mother earth, an octopus, (and as you can see from my photo) green man.
