The other day a coworker tried to indicate something was creepy…but started humming the theme from Jeopardy, not the theme from The Twilight Zone. I clenched my fists so hard I thought my knuckles would pop through the skin.

Misheard lyrics

Cardigans, “Lovefool”–”Reason will not heed two solutions/I will end up lost and Confucian”

Danzig, “Mother” –”All about two Frito Lays/and if you wanna find hell with me…”

AFI, “The Prayer Position”–”OH, ZAPATISTAS!”

You come over without a costume, we post less-than-flattering photos of your face!

So after work, mania, Chinese,Gremlins, half a lollipop and a 3-6 a.m. discussion of macrobiology and lip rings, that’s over. A fitting, if unexpected, end. The last costume of the season, unless I find something on clearance (always room for a November Surprise.) Now we begin the garish red-and-green descent into Overrated Holiday.
