Happy Halloween 2006

AKA: Jon gone Goth

Funny thing is, I never got a second look on the bus. I commented to a lady on the elevator how no one was wearing a costume today. She looked at me and asked, "Oh, is that a costume?"

Other fun responses:
"You look adorable!"
"What the?!? . . . I thought you were a visitor!"

I did get a lot of second takes at work. My boss looked like he was on the verge of the giggles every time he saw me.

And for those of you who've never tried it, I do NOT recommend clip on earrings along the top of the ear. It's hard to imagine how much pain that little bit of cartilage and skin can provide.

I think it could be your new look, Jon (minus the chain, replace it with a bolo tie or a black lizard or something).

You could also use one of those "pancake hats" I see old men all around central and Eastern Europe wearing.

Strangely enough, I'm listening to the new Evanescence album as I type. The music adds so much to your aura in the pics.
