Mom? What am I Gonna Be for Halloween??

The best costume EVER

The best costume EVER?

Psssh. Just got the invitation to a Halloween party. Normally, I'd be so excited. Halloween USED to be my favorite holiday. I usually knew by July 4th what I was "gonna be". In the past, I've been The Crow, Lydia from Beetlejuice, the VooDoo Queen, but more often than not, I was a Robert Palmer Girl. It was easy, fun and a bit tarty. That is until the last time I was one of the blank-faced live-action mannequins. It was one comment that made me never want to put on that particular Halloween costume again. "Julia!? I thought you were DRESSING UP for Halloween!!", a party-goer scolded. "I AM dressed up." Very nice. I guess I ALWAYS look bored and have on too much lipstick.

Any suggestions would GREATLY be appreciated.

Can't wear last year's costume again--and no, I won't go as "This Year's Amy". Bleh.

When in doubt, Mom always recommends being a gypsy.
