"Every girl is crazy about a sharp dressed man!"


Okay, there are no words to describe how excited I am. I mean, GIDDY people!! Our friends Rick and Jeri Sue host a murder mystery party every year and this year is going to be the BEST ever! This is the description I got for Scott's character, Caliban Rollon:
"Caliban is a gruff commoner with strong, chiseled features that are both handsome and intimidating. (So true, don't you think?) Unlike the dainty men of court, Caliban has a rugged, textured face and his eyes bear the hypnotic aspect of a hungry wolf. Countless young maidens have been drawn to his animal magnetism. He is a commoner to be sure, but few commoners have had either the charisma or the audacity to gain the attention of the ruling class.
Costume Suggestions: A commoner in a royal court, Caliban doth defy the mores of the day. He shall wear bright, tight-fitting pants and a frilly shirt open part or all of the way. Few accessories be needed but for a money purse about the waist.
So as I was perusing the ole www, I was trying to decide what kind of costume to get him. I'm not kidding when I tell you, that I ordered him the tights you see above, only in magenta. MAGENTA, kids! I'm going to have to make him a ruffled shirt to go with said tights because he's so tall I'm not sure I'll be able to find something long enough to cover...um, what needs to be covered. I am BEYOND excited for this party. My costume is AWESOME. (Although not as exciting as Scott's!) Ahhhh! Good times, kids. Good times.

Have been catching up on your posts. Felicitations on the pregnancy! That is wonderful, but sorry you feel so lousy. A pox on the first trimester. Also, I note I have been tagged to discuss six quirky things. I'll try to come up with some that don't freak people out (may take a little while...)

How FUN! I love those things. Congrats on the pregnancy, I to have been tagged and it may take me a little while to think of things that are not to crazy :0). Feeling sick is always a good sign. I am glad to be done. My littlest one is 11 months today so childbirth is still fresh in my mind!!! OUCH!

Magenta tights? Oh, boy....Is he going to speak to you after this ordeal is over?

Just be sure to take pictures and blog them the next morning.

If I even suggested to Shane that he should wear magenta tights, I am pretty sure it would cause a divorce.
