Oh Holy Zombie

Last night was last Thursday, and right before Halloween. This explains why there were Zombies dancing to Thriller in the parking lot of the Co-op last night. Needless to say, this spawned an interesting conversation about Zombies. Here are the highlights:

Tory: Daddy, what is a Zombie?
Daddy: It's a dead person who doesn't have the good common sense to fall down.
...
T: Are there really Zombies?
D: No baby.
T: Why not?
D: When people die, they tend to just lay there. When they don't, they come alive again. They don't stay dead and start moving around.
T: Was Jesus a Zombie?
D: No baby. Jesus was something else.

This explanation seemed to satisfy her.

The Once and Future Costume

I love the internet.

We managed to find the costume again. The store Costume Craze had it in stock and in the right size! w007! I waited to tell you all till we got the shipping notification.

For those that forgot, here it is again.

Princess or Pirate

Tory has chosen her Halloween costume. She was going to be a pirate, but then there was the event at the optometrist. The assistant said "What are you going to be for Halloween?" Then without giving her a change to respond, the lady says "A princess?" That was all the convincing Tory needed. Joh was livid. She has visions of pirate themes for everything, and then gets a princess dropped on her.
