You’ll Never Guess What I Am

As Jay and I are world-class procrastinators, we started rummaging around the house for things we could use for costumes an hour before we had to go to a neighbor’s for a Halloween party.

I can’t really say if this is a costume or simply an alter-ego.

Jay is—of course—paparazzo, although some people at the party thought he was a tourist and others were just enamored with the 20-year-old Polaroids and a Holga he had around his neck.

Can I just say that people take Halloween seriously here? We saw Elma Fudd, gangsters, Britney Spears, Superman, (a man as) Wonder Woman, pirates, the Pope, a bee…

…and of course a giant wedge of watermelon.

And then there is this couple we met, who only make sense as a couple. Their mad genius idea is A-Salt and Battery. (She’s the Morton Salt Girl, he’s a battery-batterer. Note the baseball bat and black eye.) GENIUS!

Lucha libre here (Mexican wrestler) had Hello Kitty bling around his neck that I could not ignore. I stalked him and asked to take a photo.

I think I scared him.
