Monday night was the annual FD banquet and all the guys were told to show up in full dress uniform.  Previous years they had a choice between the ‘work’ uniform that consists of a light blue short-sleeved shirt or the full dress.

Guess who was the ‘official’ photographer?  Though they didn’t tell me this until after I had a cosmo so some of the pictures are a bit…uhm…crooked.

Here is my favorite (it’s only officers, the FD is bigger than seven guys):

Want to know how I got (almost) all seven to laugh like that?

I told them to say, “boobies make me smile!” *grin*  There’s something to be said for having your photographer get a little tipsy prior to a photo shoot…though if I were 100% sober I probably would have had R facing the right way…*sigh* ohwell…at least they’re smiling.  ;o)

It was inevitable that I’d miss at least one blog post during this crazy-ass tax season. I’m busier than I normally am and have to do more maths than I normally do which makes everything more stressful. woo.  The up-side to this is that next year will be cake since I’ll have four less companies to wrangle.  The down-side is I’ll have four less companies and therefore four less companies’ worth of income.  boo.

Oh well, that’s why I started sewing again.  I’d much rather be listening to a book and making bags then pushing a pencil.

…but I digress.

I planned on taking pictures of my Knotty Glove progress (done with the thumb increases on the first glove!) and my Mad Color Weave socks (most of the way done on the first leg!) but I just didn’t have a chance today…oh and I have a new addition to the ‘herd’ that I wanted to photograph today too.  Alas, it will have to wait…

..I promise, I’ll be back before April.  ;o)

…on my hat. I’m to the ribbing and hope to have it done very, very soon.  In the meantime, I wanted to share with you something I saw online recently (trust me, it’s hilarious, especially if you’re a Star Wars fan):

Star Wars: Retold (by someone who hasn’t seen it) from Joe Nicolosi on Vimeo.

Best line:  “They blew up the Death Star, I said that, right?  That’s important…”

See you Wednesday!
