“How glad the many millions/of Timothys and Williams…”

I sat on the curb last Sunday in my Joker makeup, next to the BatCorgi, watching the Halloween parade. A kid, 10 or 12, came over and plopped a Starlight Mint in my hand, smirking and nodding: “I know you’re just misunderstood.”
I stood behind the counter today in my uniform, next to the sign-in book, waiting for a woman to finish. She, 30 or 32, moved closer and put the pen down, peering and squinting: “Blue? Gray? What color are your eyes?”
I sat before my keyboard tonight in my skivvies, next to Yuki, entering text in to WordPress. I, 28 soon 29, cracked my thumb knuckles and paused, frowning and pouting: “I like everything to come in threes.”

Yeah, my pants area falling off. But let’s focus on the fact that I owned these two items simultaneously for years without ever thinking of putting them together.

I dreamt that I excised my tattoos with my fingernails, and that underneath there were more that I’d forgotten.
How do ghosts have sex?

GUMBALL PASTIES. Witness the lengths to which I’ll go to amuse myself make you people happy.
This was supposed to be far more extensive, but the candies started dropping off.
Chimpanzee that!

So, more Halloween.

DISCLAIMER 1: Two groups of people have taken most of the fun out of dressing up like a cat. (Dressing up like a cat is fun? Yes, yes it is.) Group A: Furries. Ugh. Group B: Andrew Lloyd Fucking Weber. Worse than the furries. THAT SAID, here we go.
I purchased this the other day, and it is a piece of shit. Do not buy. I don’t know whose anatomy it is supposed to fit, and I know my nose is weird, but it was just a chunk of malformed painted latex. And there is ether in the fixative. Seriously.
So, disappointed but still feeling makeup-y, I put this on.
DISCLAIMER 2: I didn’t enjoy The Dark Knight as much as I’d hoped to. But my parents’ dog is going to be Batman for the Halloween parade next Sunday, so I thought I’d be the Joker. I can’t believe there are actual tutorials online for how to do Heath Ledger Joker makeup. They should all read like this: Put white all over your face. Put black around your eyes. Put red around your mouth. Smear. Make strokey half-smile.
So of course I’ll also have green hairspray and a purple teeshirt. Note: this photo is extra-menacing because of the Rainbow Brite doll in the background. Your results may vary.
