Bye Mom and Dad! We're joining the Circus!

Meet Finny, an ancient soul whose only goal in life is to eat grass and tolerate humanweirdo shenanigans. I'm his current equally ancient, slightly more enthusiastic humanweirdo. Our 2025 masterpiece cost less than an uberfancy latte and about three hours of my life (Finny spent most of that time trying to eat my new red hair). The secret? A $3 wig & $6 dress from the thrift store, and the boundless crafting potential of Walmart coffee filters ($1.96!) that I used for the collar. I added some grease paint and lipstick, and voilà! I've successfully embarrassed us both for under 20 bucks. I'm ecstatic, although Finny is skeptical about joining the circus.
