Scenes from the Green Line

Dear Karen and Neil: I hope you don’t take the T. Love, Kelly.

Something about this makes me think Karen and Neil are the Angry Engaged Somewhat Happily Married Couple. Update: I saw the dynamic duo on the train last week looking worse for the wear. Later that same day, I saw Somewhat Happily Married Man half asleep in his Metro paper. Guess the honeymoon really doesn’t last forever. If only they knew they were blog celebrities!

First, the adult costumes for 11-year-old girls. Do parents even exist anymore? And what exactly is a Midnight Maven? Why is this child out at midnight anyway? When I was in fifth grade, I was a table for Halloween. A table. My head was a centerpiece. It was the greatest costume ever. My only guess is that this girl is a cross between Elvira and the licorice man from Candy Land, who by day runs an escort service. I’m just sayin’. Also in this section, a “Stitch Witch” (not sure at all what that means), and some kind of British go-go dancer. Come on people.
