Happy Halloween




When my '4 years of service' at Hy-Vee were done, I gave away all but one pair of khakis thinking, "When will I need these again? My next job will be a professional career."


When I made the move for this internship I left all my 'dress-up' clothes behind thinking, "When will I need these again? I won't have any themed parties to attend."


Sure, I dress business/business-casual for a standard work day, but game-day attire is our blue polo with khakis. Tonight's theme is superhero, last week was Halloween and we have a plethora of theme nights ahead. The space-saver that I am (huge overstatement here), these costumes are jam-packed in my closet in SD.


Last week I called my sister asking for a Halloween costume. She crawled into the attic and came down with her bunny costume she wore in college. It hadn't seen the light of day in a few years, but it was an honor nonetheless to actually share clothes with my sis.


And wouldn't you know it, I left my ridiculous clothing in SD and when I ask her about borrowing clothes for 80s night she tells me she left hers in the 80s.
