Creativity

My family doesn't do Halloween but it doesn't stop me from appreciating the creativity of the costumes that I'm seeing around campus. The most charming one I saw was a Batman and Robin pair on a two person bike- The Batman cried, "the wind Robin! The wind!!", and Robin stiffly replied "pedal harder." In the Caf I saw a "dark and stormy knight"- which was a guy dressed in black armor carrying an umbrella. But the most creative I think was the guy dressed up as a tea bag. He had sacks of leaves tied up in tulle on either side of him with a Lipton logo hanging off. Genius.
Notice that all of these were males. It seems males are much more creative when it comes to dressing themselves in costumes. I've seen slut after prostitute after naughty this or that- it seems the girls can't think past being some sexual object. Even when they dress up as something- it has to be low cut, short, or skin tight- preferably with heels you can't walk in. Where's the creativity in that? What's the point of dressing up as a skank if everyone else is too? Sigh. The only guy I saw showing skin was a guy wearing a kilt and body paint. Besides it's like 30 degrees. Oh for elementary school when people dressed as paper dolls or a living room lamp or a bike or pizza or favorite book characters! Viva creativity!

Plus I'm more excited for the REAL holy-day tomorrow. Celebrating all the Saints!! I'd say tomorrow is definitely a day for meat and treats!
