Ever since the creation of the Henry the Octopus hat, Neko has been on the hunt for the ultimate Henry costume. Today she hit upon one that made her extrememly happy. Her bathing suit, several tee shirts around her waist for extra arms, and boots on her feet and her sparkly shoes on her hands, Henry was born. Even though she more resembled some bizarrely dressed cabaret singer, she was delighted.
Perhaps the funniest part were then her demands to see and be photographed with “her kids.” I then realized she was replaying the Disney experience of posing for the camera with various characters like Ariel and Buzz Lightyear. Shep, being the only kid around, was quickly pulled into service, a role which he he was none too thrilled to accept.
So watch your calendar, Henry may be coming to a venue near you.
