Tonight I was walking around thinking about a halloween costume, and I was trying to decide whether to be Ziggy, or Ziggy Stardust, and it was about 15 minutes before I realized that they are both named Ziggy! Isn't that screwed up? And the thing is, I didn't think of one because of the other, I thought of Ziggy because I have always wanted to be a two dimensional character for halloween because you'd have to draw up a big cardboard sheet and then just stick it to yourself. I was thinking about Hello Kitty a lot for that, but then I have read/heard 2 Ziggy-related jokes in the last week, most recently on Tremble today. And as for Ziggy Stardust, at the time I was listening to that album, which came up twice on random play this morning, once as the real album and then tonight again on random play, except this time it was a bowie live album with a bunch of songs from ziggy stardust that I didn't realize were on that album for some reason. Anyhow, my point stands: They are both named Ziggy!
Also, while I don't really believe that people wear costumes because they subconsciously want to be what they dress up as, it is sort of weird that deep down I think I am a perfect combination of Ziggy and Ziggy Stardust, with maybe just a little Ziggy Lorenc thrown in (haha oh man, Ziggy Lorenc, do even people in Toronto remember her anymore? No? That's pretty heartening actually). Oh also, at halloween, I will be repeating that theory over and over to anyone dressed like a hooker, except as if it's a proven fact.
