Weddings, Crochet and the big trip

I made it back from the wedding this morning. I left around 8am even though I didn't have to because I have three loads of laundry that i need to do ASAP so that I will have clean clothes to wear in SC. I have my last load in the washer now. I am really tired because M and I stayed up until 3 am watching movies after we got back from the wedding. We watched Catch and Release, Running with Scissors and Stranger than Fiction. All three were very excellent.

Even though it rained for most of the day on saturday, the sun shone through long enough for S and J to have their wedding outdoors as planned. the area was inhabited by abnormally large mosquitoes. I have severe allergic reactions to mosquito bites where my body will swell up and I will break out in nasty hives. I WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT DIDN"T HAVE ANY MOSQUITO BITES!!! How is this possible? I owe it all to my khaki long sleeved suit of armor and the fact that I secretly doused myself in Avon Skin so Soft bug spray before putting my suit on. The avon stuff is the only thing that works for me. everyone else was spraying themselves with OFF and other pseudo-pesticides and they all had these nasty bites by the time we got to the I Do part. the reception was fun. there was a non-alcholic pina colada machine and some scary party dancing going on. The food and the cake were excellent. the punch was kinda yucky because it was OJ and some type of Sprite and that combo only tastes good with vodka, otherwise you might as well be drinking plain OJ.

The bride looked beautiful and I have a good feeling that this couple will last forever. It is obvious how much they love and respect each other. Sniff sniff.

I added a couple of rows onto the mitered dishcloth and the Slouchy purse, but all this traveling has kinda slowed down progress in my land of crochet. I promise to report significant progress this week.

I am taking my Mac with me on vay-cay tomorrow so i hope to have updates for ya'll. I have no idea what I will be doing while I am in SC but I know it will be fun and there will be crafts involved.
