"I'm Fifty!"

Halloween always poses a good excuse to be crazy, scarey or psycho and get away with it. This year I struggled with what costume to wear because for me, if it isn't clever it isn't worth it. I was going to go as the crazy tooth fairy, but I couldn't find a white tu-tu, so I settled for Red Riding Hood because that is all I could come up with at the last second. Now... let's be honest how unclever is Red Riding Hood and it is one of those costumes that girls wear that they can still look cute, but be dressed up. Not my style. I really wanted to be Richard Simmons, but I couldn't figure out how to do it modestly and then I found the best red jump suit at the DI and I had it! Sally O'Malley from Saturday Night Live. Not a single person knew who I was, but it was a fun costume because there was some acting involved. Her famous monologue and dance routine is.....

"I'm fifty! Five. O. And I can kick.... stretch.... kick! I'm fifty!"

There is some kicking, stretching and kicking involved. It was a duzie. Check it out!

Bev, Love the costume. Unfortunately I don't know the person you dressed up as. I am sure it was great. You look so different with black hair.

Don't worry. You weren't the first who didn't know who I was.
