yeeehaww April 6th, 2012
Yehaw indeed!! It’s almost the weekend. We have plans for carbo-loading tonight, a long, 8 mile run tomorrow morning at Centennial Park in HoCo, fireworks show down at The Wharf tomorrow night, Easter brunch with family on Sunday morning, and the second annual liquor-egg hunt at our friend Jen’s place on Sunday. Action! Packed!
I’ve noticed tons of Easter decorations up around the neighborhood recently, and I realized that we don’t actually have any. And then I realized that they’re kinda creepy-looking, and that’s why we don’t have any, and I’m ok with that. Gigantic bunnies and chickens just make me think of a combination of Donnie Darko and the few times I did costume jobs for Easter (see below) a few years ago. It’s just offsetting to me. The way some people are nervous around clowns, I don’t really like oversized Easter-themed things.
Here I was as Shelly the Chick a few years back. Yeah, I have pics of me with the head off to prove it, but there’s no way way I was posting those. JJ and I were reminiscing about this costume job last weekend while we were on the train up to CT. I can’t remember if she was that lady duck in the apron or if it was someone else? It was cold as hell that weekend, even inside the costumes, and there were no kids anywhere to be found around that shopping center. Not one of the better days to be an Easter costume.

Oh…I just got it “Shelly” the Chick. That’s really sad. Have a great time tomorrow. Happy Easter!

I’m pretty sure that I was choo choo bear or humpty dumpty and I DEF wasn’t bearing the cold wind even if there was that super star DJ from WKIS or where ever.
