Costume

Today's train is full of happy fun Halloween costumes. It's a great festive day for people to shed the doldrums of their typical day be a fictional, sometimes scary, character.

A tour, you say? Well let's see what we have here.

Well here we have a medical student reading her notes from class (such a great prop). She is clutching "coffee" and has dark circles under her eyes. Likely eye shadow.

Over yonder is a construction worker, probably late to a Village People morning party, he is showing real commitment to his costume with his lunch pail, white hardhat, and gray-black damaged hands with shattered fingernails. Ouch bro.

There are others, but I am not alone in being the "just heading to work" guy. Sitting in front of me is a young devil. Her red dress a bit wrinkled, pitchfork lying forgotten next to her. She looks sad and tired. I bet she is new and on her way to claim her first soul.

The first is always the hardest.
