It's once more the most joyous time of year--when Cory and I unleash our ever-growing investment in Christmas decorations on the office, turning three-shades-of-grey cube farm into a Griswoldian explosion of lighted cheer.

Our trick-or-treating was delayed thanks to the damage left by Hurricane Sandy, which worked out just fine as we had a nice, clear, crisp evening instead of the dreary, damp night of Halloween proper.

My fabulous coworkers Julie Cousins and Mike Lampa dressed as Wonder Woman for the annual Halloween costume contest at American Greetings, each of them representing a different era in a "then and now" theme. Here we find our heroines comparing different versions of their theme song as they prepare for the contest.
In keeping with recent trends, I shot a lot of photos today that I am really proud of, but this was far and away my favorite. More should follow in the coming days as I get them tagged and edited; they'll eventually end up in a set on Flickr.
60 super days to go! (At this point, every day feels like a milestone!)
