As The Wind Beckons

______The picture-taking process started out pretty normal.  As mother dearest and I snapped pictures, there was a slight breeze, one that tousled my hair here and there, as it normally would, and made a few ripples in the fabric of my dress, and maybe even loosened a few stray hairs from my ponytail.  Nothing too severe was going on.  Nothing too awful.  Nothing that would cause alarm.

______But then, without warning, a monstrous wind came from nowhere and furiously swept itself through the area, twisting and dancing through leaves and clothes and hair.  The people of my valley were astonished by this dasterdly wind and took cover.  But no, not I.  I would not wimp out and take cover like those peasants.  I would not succumb to the fear created by the wind.  I was a man, a real manly man.  A real manly man who liked monster trucks and football and bench-pressing girls in swimsuits.

______And so, being the manly man I was, I embraced it.  I embraced the fear.

______And then magic happened.






______....And here's an especially magical one.



______Also, I'm pleased as a peach to announce that the winner of the $80 Msdressy voucher was Heather.  Congrats, lovely lady!
