Today was a "Spirit Day" at SCS, and no, that doesn't involve a second act of grace or dancing in the isle. It's a day for the kids to leave the uniform at home, and dress in costume for a theme of sorts. This celebration has given me time to reflect on my own grumpy bear tendencies to dislike dress up days.
I think the real reason I don't love costume days is that I've mostly been too broke to make up for my lack of imagination. Allow me to explain: The two kinds of good costumes I see either cost a lot of money, or have as serious amount of imagination. I have neither of those things, though I must admit my "Sexy Lumberjack" Halloween costume was a stroke of genius(pasty white hairy legs in short shorts really set this one off:0). I'm cheap enough to never wanna buy a good costume, but my limited imagination disallows truly great inexpensive options.
Oh well... guess I'll just have to stick with the Sexy Lumberjack year after year...
