PLEASE NOTE: If you're not in the mood to laugh today, I get it. But since you're here, I'm going to assume you need this ridiculousness as much as I do. I'm doing what I can with what I have in the midst of my own storm, and I can only hope it spreads a little light in yours. It's not enough, I know, but it's what I have.
Now, on with the silliness.

If you've been keeping up with Epbot Movie Night then you know we postponed our viewing of Princess Bride for a week because "John's wig isn't here yet." (John and I try to dress up to fit each movie's theme each week, and predictably, it's getting out of hand.) You were all so gracious that we were determined to make it worth the wait.
So we roped in my friend Karen, our quarantine buddy since nearly the beginning of lockdown, and the three of us got together Friday afternoon in my sweltering backyard to have the photoshoot to end all photoshoots.
First, let's take a quick look at The Wig:
If this photo had sound, it would be a lot like the shrieking eels.
(I know some of you were hoping for a John Buttercup, but we had one specific movie scene we reeeeally wanted to re-enact together, and I'm so glad we did. Keep going, you'll see. :D)
I hacked off about a third of the wig to get it roughly into shape, then John used some of the excess to make sideburns out of hot glue and duct-tape:
We convinced Karen to buy both a red dress AND a tiara - which, come to think of it, wasn't all that hard. :P
SOUND ON
