Why, do you ask? Why, because I missed a golden opportunity to have my picture taken for all y'all with--Elmo! That's right, the furry red dude himself. The voice and "soul" of Elmo, aka Kevin Clash, did a talk/signing/photo op last night, and I was there. Without camera. (I don't even own a camera phone.) With apron--I was on duty, natch. Let me just say that he was entirely charming and witty, and that his speaking voice is as deep and resonant as you'd expect from a normal person. His book is well written and fun.
But I didn't get my picture taken with him. Sob.
So, after work, I drowned my sorrows in a pomegranate-tea and got a little knitting in, thanks to a friend who's willing to sit outdoors and knit even in sub-70's weather. I finished the knitting on the dark blue shawl--ends need to be run in, and it needs a bath before it can get its picture taken. Then it will be off (along with the white Candleflame) to its new home.
Work beckons. No pictures of Elmo, sob. Maybe next time??

I'm putting it down for the record. You owe us 1 picture of you with Elmo. Can't wait to see it *someday*!
I want to go to work with you. Much more fun than the whiney people I've been dealing with of late.
