All dressed up with nowhere to go!
So I'm sitting here wearing almost exactly what I wore to our office Christmas party at the beginning of December... Black dress shirt with french cuffs, nice blue striped tie, black dress shoes... But there's one major difference. I wore worsted wool, custom tailored dress pants to my office party since they are extremely anti-kilt... tonight, awaiting my wife to doll herself up for DFW's Burns Supper, I am kilted in my USAK Casual Clark... and it makes a world of difference. I am so comfortable compared to that night nearly 2 months ago... heck, I don't even mind the tie so much (not that there's a snowball's chance in hell that I'd start wearing one on a regular basis)!
Anyway, this is my first time out kilted and "dressy" so I just thought I'd share what a world of difference it makes to wear a kilt in yet another situation in my life!

It's amazing what difference it makes!
I'm hoping to have fun... I expect the dancing and drinking to be fun (yay for the pregnant designated driver!), I just hope I like haggis... I've never actually had it (or been to a Burns Supper), but I'm open minded and will try anything once!

Have a great time. Life is so much better on the kilted side.

Have fun tonight and take a camera with you!
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon
