Go Ceilings!

Reliving the holidays...
I had a moment of lucidity today when I began printing out paper that was to be pinned to myself and declared a costume. It was then that I realized that I really could care less about the holidays this year. Now I know that some don't consider halloween a "real" holiday, nonetheless, I typically involve myself in unique, if not crafty, costumes. Most years, I enjoy getting dolled up and entertaining myself in the flow of children that appear at the church for the annual harvest party. Every year I sit at the booth marked "face painting" and wait for children to move toward my chair. A small number of the children know exactly what they covet. The majority of the children, however, approach with some trepidation. When I ask what they want painted, they hesitate as if it is some grand decision. One might think that they are making the decision toward a design that would remain with them for the rest of their lives. When I am done they scuttle off and show everyone as if they have a masterpiece centered on their cheek. The entire process really is amusing.
This year though, I approach the holiday with a melancholy spirit and a laminated piece of paper that says "Go Ceilings". Hopefully some will get the pun and know that I am dressed as a ceiling fan...
