Why limit yourself?

Halloween is so much fun that I say: why limit yourself to one costume?  This year, I donned two festive  costumes.  First, the office costume at First Book:

and then on the big night itself, the neighborhood costume:

This being Washington, DC, the wonkiness of this costume was highly appreciated.  We are Fannie Mae and the TARP.  And let me just tell you that while nothing induces daughter drama like mom marching around with a prosthetic posterier, we all ended up having a great time goofing it up in the hood.  And we have the sugar haul to prove it!

Alas, back to reality yesterday and today.  Vote everybody, OK?  And if you live in DC, please join me in writing in FENTY for mayor.  What can I say?  Hope springs eternal.
