happy halloween (observed)!

this is me as "government girl," my halloween alter ego.  tights + "logsdon survey and mapping" t-shirt + cape + mask + holding my government textbook = low budget happiness.  in this photo i'm sending the seniors out to the halloween parade.  i'm standing on a table so i can shout out directions.  and feel powerful.

(you may remember the yellow tights from last year's chicken costume.)

as i've mentioned before (click here to be reminded), our school has a halloween parade that the pre-school and the seniors participate in.  and random faculty members.  i was in charge of organizing the seniors, and they were great.  i love these seniors, even when they're a little squirrelly.

my coworker-friends and i came to school as superheroes this year.  pictured below are inspector gadget, the count (from sesame street), underdog, government girl, zeus, super french girl, grammar girl, super science nerd, and indiana jones.

the whole "superhero" theme was interpreted a little loosely.  and dork-ily, as teachers do, i guess.  it was pretty awesome.  i love this day of the year.
