Thanks Richard. Fortunately for kids in Toronto, when they become teenagers, they get to join the adult festivity, which is a big party on Church Street, a kind of late autumnal Pride parade. Genghis would be welcome there in any (in)carnation :)

That's neat. At twelve it may

That's neat.

At twelve it may be her last year.

I always took my kids out.

Always good to walk with the kids--and you usually end up with some candy too!

I dressed as a flower for a Halloween party last weekend, but everyone thought I was an anus.

Never party with gastrointestinal specialists.

Howdy, welcome, and Happy Halloween.

My kid, who recently turned 12, will be going out tonight as a professional clown mourner. Translation: she's a clown-for-hire when you don't feel up to the hard work of weeping. She'll be wearing a red clown nose, a black hat with mourning veil, and something warm below, I hope, as today--post Sandy--is cold and damp. She'll be carrying a mental list of stories that make her emotional, mostly drawn from real life, in case the tears don't flow automatically. In lieu of a candy bag, she made her own business cards, with an email address, in case anyone genuinely needs her services.

I'll post pictures later.

Other costumes I've heard about: Pirate and CindeRebel.
