i’m not dead… Updated 3/13/2012

6 Mar

I was just making the most epic hat ever…  I even put a bird on it!

Pictures and real post to follow.

*Updated*

As promised, from the camera of my friend Jami Davis, who should really get paid for this type of work:

The hat waiting patiently for its turn in the spotlight

Jami, Ann & i got our fancy lady ideas out and decided to make some ridiculously fantastic hats for Jami’s 30th-Birthday-weekend-long-extravaganza in San Francisco.

My hat is so fancy it even has a bird on it.

This required not only substantial drinking, but ribbon and birds.  Ann rocked a classic east coast wide-brimmed white beauty.  Jami has a classy butterfly (who i will name Bettina) and, not to be outdone by the chance to make a huge hat even more wonderful, mine has Phillip in a purple nest.  Yes, yes i did glue feathers on his bum to make him better able to match my salad dress.

That is us in front of a race track. Betting on horses may be my new favorite pastime... Especially if i get to wear such fancy clothes!!

See?  Salad dress.  Trust me about Bettina, Jami’s hat is just tilted because Bettina could not tear her eyes away from the track.  I tell you, betting on a horse at random is exhilarating!  It also helps that we bet $2 at a time and Ann had a tip about a horse in the 9th 🙂

Thanks for being awesome my friends!!  And for wearing our hats in public with pride!

      F!! It’s good to hear from you!

      True, true. It did take me a little longer than normal. But the tag did say that is was “late… but not dead”

      We’ll be doing better soonish, and i should get you Allyson’s info soon!
