Completely Bonkers

 Yay for Halloween!  I got excited and went for a Depp-inspired look.  In case you guys haven't seen the movie, I dressed up as the Mad Hatter from the new Alice in Wonderland.

Since it was on a Monday night, Halloween was pretty uneventful for me.  However, the ward did throw a party for FHE.  This is one of my friends who is my hero for going all out!  She was the she-Hulk, and had painted her entire body green.

You can't tell, but my coat has some pretty sweet tails.

I made a last-minute run to Wal-Mart to stock up on candy for the neighbor kids.  While perusing the Halloween isle I discovered, among other things, fake eyelashes, and black tooth paint.  Being the dentist that I am, I fixate way too much on teeth, and was all too aware of Johnny's diastema.  My artificially created gap added the perfect touch of crazy.  However, I think I was scaring the trick-or-treaters when I was handing out candy!  Also, since several of the parents in the neighborhood are fellow dental students, I got a lot of comments.  I guess I should just be glad no one offered to fix it for me...

I had this whole crazy costume, and everyone fixated on my diastema!
My orthodontist would be horrified since I just spent about a year getting rid of all my spaces...

This was my very favorite part of the whole costume - the makeup!  My regular eyeshadow now seems incredibly bland.

This was my first experience with fake eyelashes.
Hopefully I'll find an excuse to use them again in the near future!

I did have some misadventures with the orange eyebrows and the fake eyelashes.  Especially removing them at the end of the night...  I was tempted to just leave it and go to clinic looking like this!
