Halloween: When to quit
Beware the extreme Halloween enthusiast.
Her vocabulary has no tolerance for words like "cheesy" and "over the top." She considers candy corn a well-balanced meal.
I have no problem with holiday enthusiasts. I'm just saying...know your limits.
Take, for example, the devil maternity costume featured above.
Is that really necessary?
I'm all for equal opportunities.
However, I wouldn't feel entirely comfortable looking at my future child and saying, "No, honey, I wasn't at Lamaze class on the night before you were born. I was walking around dressed like a sexy devil."
Embrace the Halloween spirit, heed my suggestions and pick up a cool costume this weekend.
Just remember: You can wash your mummy makeup away. Embarrassing Facebook photos are a different story.
