Trick or Treat You're invited HALLOWEEN PARTY Dress: Costume Casual DIAL DIAL DIAL DIAL Cathy: "Costume casual"?? Voice from phone: Yes! Wear a costume, but don't look like you tried to wear a costume! Cathy: What?? Voice from phone: Be casual! We have business casual, dressy casual, sporty casual... ...This is costume casual! Wear a costume that isn't costume-my! Cathy: Why don't I just NOT WEAR a costume? Voice from phone: Oh, no! Wear a costume... ..Just not one that looks like you're trying to LOOK like something! Just be casual! Have fun! Free yourself from stereotypical limitations! Cathy: Wake me up when the dress code returns to planet earth.
