Michael and I were invited to an adults only Halloween costume party on Saturday. I’ve never been to such an event and it was a lot of fun. I ate my weight in hors d'oeuvres, I socialized AND our babysitter only charged us $10 since Eva was already in bed and she felt guilty taking money. She didn’t want to take anything but I made her split the difference with me.
The costumes were quite elaborate. I didn’t realize these people would be so serious about dressing up. I scrounged my stewardess costume from a few years ago and Myke was Richard Simmons. Our babysitter asked him who he was and when he answered, “Richard Simmons,” she replied, “Who’s that?” We’ve crossed over into old people land where the young whippersnappers don’t speak our language.
Next year I’ll be more prepared in the costume department. There were prizes for different categories and I really wanted to win one of those candy prizes. Sugar Babies taste so much better when they’re free. But we didn’t win. Not by a long shot.
Even so, it was a good night.
