One thing I have never done in my life is celebrate Halloween underwater. And this year I was getting real stoked about the idea, asking friends and diver customers about cool costume tips that would make big waves so to speak.
Now I didn't want anything that would compromise diver safety. Or be damaging to the marine environment. So that whittled away at the options available and unlike as a friend of mine suggested I was certainly not dressing up as a mermaid. I am not that cheesy, unless it comes to real cheese like brie or wacky Dame Edna-style sunglasses.
Of course I thought of my new sunglasses. I have a certain affinity for tacky ones and back home I have been seen wearing useless raver sunnies during local baseball games. It made catching the ball so much harder but boy the shades were so ugly it was funny and therefore totally worth it.
My friend Scuba Ninja Livvie was slightly envious of my new sunglasses, asking me to buy her a pair too because (and I quote) "...Aww but I want to have a butterfly to have sex with my face too."
Yep, the sunglasses are THAT Special. So I thought, what a great idea I could be a Butterfly Fish for Halloween! It would totally compromise standards of diving safely but it would look so awesome!
In the end I did not even get to dive on Halloween. Nor have I worn my Butterfly Shades much cause it is too bright in the Middle East. And soon after that there was no diving to be had for a long time. But what I do know is that whenever I will encounter Butterfly Fish in the future I will think of Livvie and my sunglasses with a cheeky smirk on my face.
