Firday was Cal's schools annual "Monster Bash". I have never dressed up in years past. While at the Goodwill store getting Cal's Amish costume, I saw this giant afro. Well, it came to me in a flash...a gorgeous , sophisticated, tall , thin, black women from the 70's popped into my head. I gathered my accessories with gusto. As I was putting on the final touches, I looked in the mirror. Hmmmm, I thought. My vision of grandeur faded as the only thing staring back at me was a friggin scary transvestite. Too late now,I had to go with it. Needless to say I walked solo down the block to the school.

These shoes are amazing. I took them from the store mannequin
they were a pinch to small. Notice the slit across the toe, a steak knife came in handy.
Yeah, I was at least 6'5" tall
I won't lie, I was a hit with the adults. Most kids just stopped, stared and walked away speechless.
Saturday was Karricks "Spooktacular" It being a Catholic school and all, I left the Kiss shoes at home.
