ariel is to be an angler fish in his kindergarten end-of-year concert. "i'm a fish with a light," he told us. his costume costs $37. isn't that outrageous? how can a costume for a small child cost that much? diamond studded meh? as the concert is on the same day as our first thursday iin other news, the children have somehow come to hear about halloween (probably from television) and want to know if they can celebrate it. cold storage sells pumpkins; yeen teck says he could carve them one. (note: put this down in my ever-thickening "contracts in blood" book.)
