Hello, gentle readers!
It’s Autumn! Whooo-hooo! My favorite time of year!
The brutal summer heat is finally giving way to some much welcomed cooler
weather (no, I’m not a fan of the Phoenix Phoenix
Halloween is just around the corner, too! It’s is a
big deal where I work. There’s the kids parade (yes, kids are welcome for this
day, all decked out in their costumes). There are skits and music and just a
general atmosphere of fun. According to what I’ve learned, Halloween was our
late founder’s favorite thing to celebrate and the tradition continues.
Last year was a hoot (my first experience with this
kind of hoopla). I loved it. The skits were so funny (I work with many talented
people, some, I learned had been rehearsing for months…as I said, it’s a big
deal). The costumes, too, were phenomenal (again, I work with some very
talented, creative people—my talents lie elsewhere).
So, here’s the thing. I don’t know what to dress up as. On a normal day, I dress professionally (re: kinda preppy…you know, skirts
and blouses or dresses…very rarely do I wear jeans, even when it’s allowed on
Fridays).
I have a couple costumes from parties I’ve gone
to…I’m just trying to decide which is more appropriate for the workplace
(providing, of course, they still fit). I have a saloon girl costume, a flapper
costume, and a gypsy costume (sorry, I have no pictures…I’m a bit camera shy). Maybe,
I should do something new…like…well, I’ve been toying the idea of going as the
Grammar police. Or maybe, I’ll just do something silly and put mouse ears or
cat ears on my head.
I need to make a decision soon. Halloween is almost here. I’m
starting to get excited!
Until
next time, remember to spread kindness wherever you go.
