Walruses and Weddings: Epilogue

Here and gone, folks.

Well. Here we are. It’s the Monday after the Wedding. Buster and Jen are officially married. And I’m here, sniffling because of all the allergies kicked up by standing outdoors for copious amounts of time and exhausted. But wow. What a weekend. So, I know I’ve said numerous times over the past month that I’ve… Continue reading Walruses and Weddings: Epilogue

Walruses and Weddings: Wedding Ahoy!!

It's HERE.

Well. It’s happening. I’m packed. I’m shaved. The relatives are here. And in about an hour, we are heading down to the Wedding Venue where tomorrow, Buster and his fiancee Jen will be married. Wow. It’s weird. We’ve been talking about this for months and months and MONTHS – hell, this entire month has been… Continue reading Walruses and Weddings: Wedding Ahoy!!

Walruses and Weddings: Rings and Flowers

Proceed to squee.

Well, look at these adorable little moppets, all set to wander down the aisle. Once they’re done playing around, of course. Looks like the Flower Girl is winning. In other adorable animal news, anyone else see that Mei Xiang, one of the National Zoo pandas, had twins? This makes me SO excited, you have no… Continue reading Walruses and Weddings: Rings and Flowers

Walruses and Weddings: The Coming Days

Success! Oh, and, uh, t-minus 8 days.

Well, looks like someone finally managed to wrestle Lars into a tie. Similar to getting me to put one on. And, yeah. 8 days. Holy crap. Where the hell has August gone? It’s too surreal. It’s like, I know it’s happening, but I’m not sure if it’s going to hit me until I am standing… Continue reading Walruses and Weddings: The Coming Days

Walruses and Weddings: Bachelor Party

I'm fairly certain that Introvert Drew and Realist Drew would work together to shove Anxious Drew in the closet.

First off, let me just say: I tried. I really did want to shove aside my social anxiety and go to the Bachelor Party, to hang out with Buster, meet the other groomsmen, and generally enjoy myself. For a while, looked like I was able to – it was on a Sunday, I had no work that… Continue reading Walruses and Weddings: Bachelor Party

Walruses and Weddings: Tie-ing Things Up

Now THERE'S a face for the books.

Pretty much sums up my feelings about ties. But of course, I’ll be wearing one myself for the wedding. And it won’t even be the one that I own that I wear to pretty much any occasion that requires one (and yes folks, it has walruses on it). The worst part about wearing a tie… Continue reading Walruses and Weddings: Tie-ing Things Up

Walruses and Weddings: Worries

Bones is totally judging me right now. Just look at that expression on his smug stuffed animal face.

Who needs to worry when I can do the worrying for you? And yes, I do worry about human interaction on a daily basis. In this case…I mean, I’m fairly certain a good portion of the wedding guests are my brother’s friends/future sister-in-law’s relatives whom I’ve never met (complete strangers – my other worst fear).… Continue reading Walruses and Weddings: Worries

Walruses and Weddings: Dressing Up

I know what you're thinking - how much ink did you use? The answer is yes.

I think this says more about Willa’s fashion choices than anything else. Side note: I actually drew part of this with my eyes dilated. Very interesting experience. Not one I really want to do again, but an experience.

Walruses and Weddings: The Suit

Someone caught me dressed up nicely. THE SHAME.

Picked up my brand new suit the other day. Not going to lie – I actually kind of like it. *cue collective gasp* Well, it’s true. I’ve never had a suit before – never had any reason to own one. And now I do. And, if I do say so myself, I look damn good… Continue reading Walruses and Weddings: The Suit
