Smells Like Halloween

Ooh, ooh, ooh. It’s Halloween weekend! Halloween is quite possibly my favorite holiday of the year. ( ... Okay, my birthday comes first, but Halloween is a close second. A very close second.) I need to buy a costume. I'm a goofball for waiting until the last minute. The lines will be horrendous and the costumes that are left will be picked over. Inspired by Halle Berry, last year I was Catwoman. The year before that, I was a cheerleader. This year, I had every intention of being a belly dancer. And if I'd bought my costume, say, a month ago, that would have been my reality. But, I didn't buy it a month ago. I procrastinated. Now, the only Belly Dancer Costumes that will be left are the ones that are missing pieces of the costume, are 6-8 sizes too large and look really horrible. And, I say, better to not be a belly dancer at all than to look like a crack-whore, reject belly dancer. What's your Halloween costume, by the way? ( ... Or, if you live in a country where the holiday is not celebrated, what costume would you choose if you were to celebrate?)
