My Days As a Pirate Are Over
For years my husband and I attended the same costume party every Halloween. Last year I was out of costume ideas and decided it would be great fun to go as a pirate. I wondered how many people would realize who I was or even that I’m a woman. When I appeared that night, I was in full Pirate fancy dress. Unfortunately, in order to appear male, I hung around the men instead of the women and spent the night listening to “guy talk”. Eventually we unmasked and they knew who I was, but one night of being a man was all I could take. My pirate days are over.
