Decided on What to Wear for Halloween? Use Your B-Day to Decide.

Having trouble deciding on a costume to celebrate Halloween? Here's a fun exercise! Found the B-day chart below shared via Facebook by 95.7 KJR, radio station that plays Seattle's Greatest Hits of the 60s, 70s and 80s and home of Bob Rivers!  (Or the former home of Mr. Rivers.  He retired about a month ago.)  This is so fun!!  It turns out I'm a Screaming Cheerleader, which is not that far from the real me! :)

It seems that I am married a Gruesome Vampire. (Nothing could be further from the truth.)

As for my sons and daughters? Apparently, I've given birth to a:

• Gruesome Superhero, Werewolf, and Cavewoman;
• Screaming Cheerleader (yes! I have a child born on my birthday);
• Screaming Barbie;
• Chilling Prom Queen and Ghost;
• Dead Pirate and Dead Ghost (???);
• Spooky Geek; and
• Terrifying Clown.  (Halloween2016.  Clowns not allowed.)

Actually?  Out of all of these, the Spooky Geek is spot on!

* * * Need some costume ideas?

• Be a Witch! It's Tradition!
• Dress Like a Pirate
• Be an Egyptian Belly Dancer
• PopOut Dressed Like the Genie in the Bottle
• Wear this Halloween / Christmas / Masquerade Party Mask (and nothing else!) - For your husband, of course! :)

Dress up like a queen for Halloween? ~ My personal pick is this Marie Antoinette-style gown. But there are many others to choose from.

You Think You Know All About Witches | earthpages.ca (Reblog)

A very informative post:  Witch. Two ideas (or facts, if you prefer) presented that were news to me!

(1) Witches are born witches. Sorcerers get to apply for the job later on in life.

(2) Witch doctors were called witch doctors because people called on them to cure an illness believed to have been caused by a witch.

Saw a picture of Beyoncé dressed up looking like a queen holding a scepter (below) and got inspired for a Halloween costume idea.  Be a queen!

This is a Marie Antoinette-style gown. Eh!  We know her history.  Try not to think about the fact that she lost her head.  Just think of all the pretty gowns she wore.
