Halloween. Some people’s favorite holiday of the year. You get to come up with a genius plan of a costume that will knock the socks off of everyone you encounter! You get to spend hours planning, shopping and putting the finishing touches on this outfit you’ll probably only wear once ever. That is… unless you’re me.
What did I do? Well, I merely went shopping in my own closet the night before. I entered my giant walk-in closet dressed in normal, every-day clothes, and emerged dressed in every mismatched article I could possibly fit together! What was the result? A sweet clown costume.
Or so I thought. Until I showed up at my church’s Harvest Fest, where there are hundreds of little children milling about. Where there are hundreds of little Hannah Montana fans milling about! Apparently… I looked just like “Lola” from Hannah Montana.
I had multiple little girls (and boys!) come up to me and shyly ask, “Are you Lola!?” To which I replied, “Absolutely!” (No sense in dashing all those little Cinderella/Buzz Lightyear/Frog’s hopes and dreams!) And the funny part is… They actually believed me. They all ran away whispering and giggling to their friends…
My name is Becky, but tonight, you can call me Lola.
