Dragon*Con musing
A friend wants to do "Night at the Museum" for DC 2009. I'm not thrilled with this idea (sorry) because I think it'll be a difficult theme to pull off. A bunch of people dressed in costumes from different periods... How is that different from a dozen random Dragon*Con attendees? Anyway, I'll work up something and go along because that's what friends do. :) Maybe props will help? Hmm...
I was talking with someone else about an unrelated costume idea I was hatching. She says "so you're not going to do 'Night at the Museum,' are you?"
I look at her, my face revealing that I am stunned and baffled by this assumption. I think about it for a moment...
"Oh!" I say, "there will be more than one costume!"
I think I wore 5 costumes at the last one. Seriously. Calvin and Hobbes, Pirate Steve (Dodgeball), Beckett (PotC), poison apple cyclist (Enchanted), and my clan kilt. I feel bad counting "kilt" as costume, but I think there may have been something else briefly, too. Regardless, it works out to a lot of outfit changes.
