You won't believe this. Last night, despite being less than sober(ignorance is bliss my friends, don't burden yourselves with secrets of scary people), I stayed up till 4am. I finished reading a book. I wrote two pages of song. And I finished 10% of a 750 piece jigsaw puzzle. My mind scares me. I was supposed to sleep at 1.
My new piece of excitement is a scarecrow mask. The one from Batman Begins(2005)
This one :
My granparents are sewing one for me outta an old gunny sack!
I got the idea while thinking of how I super heroes make their outfits. I was thinking, imagine the amount of effort Bruce Wayne put into piecing together his first Batsuit. Not the one from The Dark Knight. That one was factory assembled. The first one he had to attach the cape mechanism with the rest of the Nomax survival suit. And he had to paint that survival suit black and order his own bat-cowl. All that effort. He's a billionaire, so he had all the resources.
Then I thought about The Joker, Raz al-Gul and Scarecrow. The Joker just put on make up and a purple suit. Oh and he had to get his face cut up first. Raz doens't really have an outfit. Just a suit and a fancy Tibetan moustache-beard thing. Scarecrow had that mask. And it worked to full effect. I mean, one moment he's Dr. Crane. Then he puts that sack over his head and he's Scarecrow! Brilliant. I could do that!
And that's what I'm going to do.
