They sell full-body suits at Sherwin Williams, I'd assume they have them at home depot too... it's like a paper outfit, legs, body, arms, and a hood...you'll just need a set of gloves, a respirator, and DON'T FORGET the eye protection!! You don't want fiberglass in your eye.
I did the same thing in my house, used the pink-stuff in rolls.. you'll need a good utility knife with a lot of extra blades - fiberglass dulls them quickly. A respirator is absolutely necessary, think of it like asbestos.. it settles in the lungs like that, so pay the $40 for a good respirator, or at least get one of those little paper masks - but for me, the paper thing totally sucked, I got pissed and paid for a good respirator. If I did it over, I'd bay a few MORE bucks and get the respirator that comes with the full face shield, so you don't have to worry about goggles and all.
The other thing you'll want is a hammer-stapler. It's great, you just cut your strip of pink stuff, shove it between the studs, and then hold the paper edge down and whack it with the hammer-stapler a few times, repeat on the other side and you're done.
If you are doing it over-head, they make (or else I made them, I forgot) little metal sticks that you wedge between the rafters to keep the insulation from eventually sagging and falling down, think of it as little bridges every few feet that hold it up.
