Halloween spirit (pun intended) was rampant here in the LizardTech office today. We celebrated All Hallows Eve by bringing in lunch and holding a contest for best costume.

It was a difficult choice; Pooya’s faceless, hooded character was quite spooky and most in the spirit of the day. Ryan actually applied paint to his body, which scores high for dedication. John – always creative – had a half dozen dolls strapped to his torso. No one was able to guess what he was (I thought he was supposed to be a “babe magnet”) until he explained that Brad Pitt has adopted six infants. Kelly came as a rocker, and note that a guitar is also called an “axe”, so extra points for conceptually including a clever reference to a spooky thing there.

But in the end, Justyna won it with her dancing queen costume, possibly because she made several trips around the office dancing and singing ABBA. Pooya came in second, and Ryan third.

We also put candy at each desk, and in the afternoon Lizards brought their kids into the office so they could go around and collect treats and we could see them in their adorable little costumes.
