I love Halloween...

[amanuensis1]

You know what would be the coolest Halloween costume? You go as Janet from the "Tam Lin" ballad--since the key action takes place on Halloween--and you dress in a bodice-y gown but you dress pregnant and go carrying a stuffed dummy that's this sewn-together combo of lion/dragon/python/man, and make a point of not putting the dummy down all evening.

Damn, I'll never get that together by Monday.

ROTFL!

That's just brilliant. Have you ever read...uh, memory's failing, but if I'm right...Pamela Dean's _Tam Lin_?

God, yes. An awesome book, one of my all-time faves!
