Halloween!!!!!!

I just wanted to say that I can't WAIT for Halloween! This year I'm going to be a zombie, but not just a run-of-the-mill, typical zombie bride or a dumb thing like that. We're going to go to Seldon Thrift and get some old clothes that I can rip up, and put coconut oil in my hair to make it greasy. And now the best part. I first got the idea when I had ten billion bug bites and slept with calomine lotion on my arms. When I woke up, it looked like my skin was peeling off my arms! So at first I wanted to do calomine, but who ever heard of a zombie with a bad sunburn? I mean, they live in their graves and stalk people at night. So we talked about dying it pale green, but Mom was freaking out about it 'flaking off all over the house' so Dad suggested a flour-and-water paste, but we ran into the same issue. So Dad came up with "Why don't we do something heavier, that won't come off very easily.Something like ... oooooooaaaatmeal?" So that was all WTH Dad??? but now that I think about it, it seems like a good idea. I mean, it's heavy enough to not peel very much, my skin will look lumpy and diseased under the oats, it's easily dyeable....so we decided that we would give it a try. But Dad being Dad, it probably won't get done until the day before Halloween....oh well. I'll try to drop a few hints that I need a costume soon. So wish me luck, and happy Halloween!
