Tonight is the annual Piper WICKED SCARY HALLOWEEN PARTY for the neighborhood/family kids (and grownups). Brian bought 45 lbs of candy this year. I've eaten a good portion of it already.
For Halloween, the Pipers are going as Star Wars characters. Since Brian already has the Obi Wan beard, that's who he is going to be. We ran out of time on the costuming front, so he planned to take a pair of his old dress shoes, spray paint them from black to brown and make some brown vinyl spats to wear on his shins.
Last night he spray painted one of his black shoes brown and it came out great. The spats looked fabulous with it, so this morning he spray painted the other shoe.
It wasn't until he was completely finshed with the paint job that he realized he had grabbed one of his GOOD black dress shoes, and painted it brown. So, now he has one of his old, crappy shoes painted, and one of his NEW dress shoes painted.
Fortunately he painted one right and one left shoe.
