On friday I went to a Halloween party and decided to deck out for the holiday. I got all gussied up, bought a wig, made part of my costume and put on a bunch of make-up (complete with false eyelashes). I was Katy Perry and had a great time!...and spent over $50.
Today I put a fake bird in my hair and grabbed a bunch of mailing labels and had the best, most interactive AND work-appropriate costume I have ever thought of...for free (borrowed the bird from Jenn and used mailing labels I already had) I was Twitter! I went around the office asking people to write a tweet - often teaching them about what Twitter is (outreach!) - and had a blast!
