Default A DT Tradition! The Eclipse Awards

Okay so who will be around that night for our annual insult-athon festivities?

For anyone who doesn't know we host our own version wherein we ummm critique every damned thing about the evening.

Loads of fun!

Who can I count on?

Last year we had a few of the very quiet types finally speak and it was great so please... no being intimidated! If anyone messes with you all of us will gang up on them, okay?

I think the color pallet for the dresses were inspired by my mom's living room circa 1978 -- long live gold, brown and pea green!

The Pletcher family one reminded me of the Huckabee's Christmas photo that someone posted a few years ago.

It's a close one but I've thought long and hard about it and no... I'd have to say the dress is even worse.

The colors make me want to slit my wrists.

Fine work, Sightie! Very impressive!

Now when we dress do we need to make sure we don't work our arms if were wearing something strapless and wear unflattering colors?

FIFY



I hereby approve of herkie's attire choice.


And I'm searching for a better venue for our little soirée.

BTW, does anyone have an airplane with enough seats for us all?
