Day 106: A spoonful of sugar...


...not only helps the medicine go down, but makes for a very fun day at work! That's right, the Poppins made another appearance this year, and because I had no Halloween party/going out plans, I was forced to wear it to work! Now, this decision was made after getting reassurance that several other people at work would be sporting costumes...but guess what happened when I walked into the newsroom, complete in skirt, coat and hat? Yes, I was the only one. Whatever, I love the Poppins and I'm pretty sure the costume I put together last year, um, totally rocks. So anyone that made fun? You're just jealous.

Sidenote, but best Poppins story every: I wore the costume last year in Chicago, which meant wearing it on the train to my friend's house. Upon my arrival on the train platform, three guys asked me if I was looking for a chimney sweep, to which I replied sarcastically, "ha, ha, very funny." But, joke's on me, there actually was a man dressed as Bert! Of course, a meet-cute doesn't get any more perfect if it'd been written in a movie script, and I was immediately planning a Poppins-themed wedding, complete with umbrella favors and a choreographed dance to "supercalifragilistickexpealidocious!" But, alas, I believe he played for the other team, so my dreams were dashed in moments. Still, a fun story to share at dinner parties! :)
