A night with Woody and Soon-Yi

We just had to. These were our costumes for our friend Ed's Halloween party a few weeks ago. I hit on the bright idea the morning of the party, and after concurrence from Hong, we did a bit of internet research to see what these guys look like. I think the pigtails are a nice touch. For the glasses, I bought a real pair at the 100-yen store and poked out the lenses. Actually I tried to break them with a rock, but Hong pointed out that they just snap out. Oops.

I emailed 100 Woody Allen quotes to my phone so I could tell jokes all evening, but apparently, everyone's sense of humor was completely lacking because only one person laughed the whole night. How can you not laugh at comedic gold like "Basically my wife was immature. I'd be at home in the bath and she'd come in and sink my boats." or "His lack of education is more than compensated for by his keenly developed moral bankruptcy." or "I ran into Isoceles. He had a great idea for a new triangle!" Pure gold, I tell you!

Anyway, we had a good time. The glasses have proved extremely useful for many situations hence, and I find myself wearing them just for the fashion of it all. I recommend it to anyone.
