Illustration Friday: "Sorry"
My first wedding anniversary was yesterday, May 21st. I know, I know.. and they said it wouldn't last! Anyway, not only has it been exactly one year since my husband and I got hitched, it's also been exactly one year since I almost killed both of our families, close friends, officiant, and photographer. You see, I just had to get married outside. In New Orleans. On, I believe, the hottest (98 degrees, give or take) May 21st on record. I had my chance to move the ceremony indoors, but oh no...that wouldn't do! Because then no one would nearly succumb to heatstroke or suffer wretched sunburns-- and the butter on the table may have remained solid.
So, to all who attended that sweaty, blindingly sunny, chokingly humid, fairy-tale ceremony... Sorry! And, thanks.

That's a pretty funny story, Molly. I just got back from NO. It wasn't too hot. Nice illustration.
This is so funny, LOL funny! The story is just great, but, the look on the faces-especially yours-love it. Great sketch and lots of fun!!!
Great work, and story!I could almost feel the sweat!
From someone who was there: yeah, it was hot. I had to dry-clean the sweat stains out of my dress. And I drank way too much champagne, because it was the only thing that was cold! But I was so happy to be there, and to see New Orleans pre-hurricane, and to celebrate with you. Happy anniversary!
