Messiah was a success. Whew! Glad that’s over.
Our director hired musicians to accompany us - couple of violins, viola, cello, bass. Good group. One of the violin players, though…
OK, he LOOKED normal - kind of puffy looking 40ish, mustache, glasses, lame…BUT
He greased up his hair and spiked it into kind of a faux mohawk, and dyed it PURPLE.
what’s weirder - apparently, he didn’t show up to the church like that. His hair was NORMAL when he came in the morning. He spiked it RIGHT BEFORE THE SERVICE.
Freak.
Tonight was our choir christmas party - w00t! Lots of food and booze. And I dressed EXTRA christmasy:
Remember those socks I was debating? I ordered them. Two pair. The other pair is pale pink.
Kev really likes them. I mean REALLY REALLY likes them. Like, I put them on, and then somehow, 5 minutes later I found my self nekkid in bed. Feeling very very VERY good.
Best 10 bucks I ever spent

I Love your Knee Socks!!! Totally Cute! Have you ever thought of Making A Pair? There are The Cutest Bumble Bee Knee Socks in This Month’s Issue of Knit 1! I would Love to make them. But, I don’t think I would ever Wear Them. Still, they are Very Cute.
Bzzz!
Maybe Mr. Fake Mohawk lost a bet? Um… or, he’s trying to pick up chicks, and he’s channelling his inner Sid Vicious? You know, ’cause we really dig hot musicians.
The sock/stockings are adorable!
See, what did I tell you? The socks = good decision. The musician = weirdo.
Definitely a weirdo. You have to be committed to the weird hair all the time, just not right before the service.
Excellent socks! And some very impressive knitting!
I love your Knee Socks!
I wish I could Wear Knee Socks. But, alas, I am Over Thirty-Five and therefore Past The Knee Sock Wearing Cut-Off Date. Such are The Rules Of Fashion. I guess I am suppossed to be Content with having worn 1980’s Styles during The Actual 1980’s.
Randi, that is such complete and utter bullshit. There is no arbitrary age that precludes anyone from wearing anything. The only thing that matters, is if you look good, and feel good, when wearing something. If you don’t feel good whee wearing it, don’t wear it. If you don’t look good, but feel good, when wearing it… well, you should probably see if you can do something to make yourself look good while wearing it.
However, age is irrelevant.
Dude, doing the hair like that totally rocks! I just love musicians that are rebels. Or at least willing to shock and surprise.
Socks are indeed very hot. Don’t blame Kev for wanting to get you out of them quickly. Those are some sexy legs you got there.
Where do I get those socks????
When I saw those socks, the first thing that I thought of is “Ryan would REALLY love those socks.” Wait! On ME! We can’t have too many guys chasing after you, you are a married woman and all.
And the guy with the hair. I love that! Nothing sticks it to the Man like putting a lot of fashion products in your hair, spending an inordinate amount of time placing it in a gravity-defying situation and then playing Handel’s Messiah in Church! That will show ‘em I’m a rebel! Bwahaaaaa!
Violinists are like the trumpet players of the orchestra–too much ego and an inflated sense of their own cool status.
Horn players, on the other hand, RAWK.
Simple fact.
Wow, those are good socks! Congrats on a successful “Messiah”. One of my wife’s favorite pieces…
