Happy New Year 2012!
Happy (belated) New Year, everyone! I’m back online — but not where you might expect — and regular blogging here on Accordion Guy resumes as of Tuesday, January 3rd. Here’s to a great 2012 and an interesting Year of the Dragon.
I’ve got my hands full at the moment, so I’ll keep this post short and sweet. I’ll let the pictures tell most of the story of how quickly and completely things can change.

Same suit – 2011’s party had a Mad Men theme, 2012’s bash was an Archer costume party, both shows with 1960s clothes – but the situation is much improved. Life is good.

The only thing missing from 2012 is Archer's haircut. Should have grown your hair out... and dyed it all black :)
Woah, you've transitioned into living as an attractive young woman and are dating someone who looks like your old self?! You never cease to amaze, Joey.
Joey, you look great. Glad to see 2012 is looking up.
Happy New Year, and good to see you're bringing it in in style.
