Did anybody else's elementary school music class consist of mostly playing xylophones? Everytime the teacher assigned us a xylophone to play, I was always given one of the tiny ones to play. I always really wanted to play one of the bigger ones with the little mallets. Nobody ever let me play the big ones with the mallets. I'd sneak a "bong" on one as I went by it on ...
I know I just kinda wrote out a to-do list in Monday's post but my brain is screaming in anxiety today and it helps to write lists. So I'm going ahead with my August state of the union. 1. Dr Crusher is DONE! Finished her up last week, last few details like sewing in magnets for the communicators, styling the wig. The only thing left to do is finish my tricorder, ...
When you have so few pics for today's post that you don't even have a good one for a header... So what a freaking weird weekend it was. I don't actually have a lot of photos to show today. Last week I focused on finishing up Crusher - I got the shoulder pads in, shortened the sleeves, got the magnets set in for the communicator, ended up taking up the ...
I don't have a TON to show today because even though I worked nonstop every night last week, it was all finishings on the jacket/redoing the sleeves/getting all the closures put on and taken off because they're not right and put back on and oops it needs to be a half inch lower, etc. That being said my vinyl for my boot covers/gloves came in on Wednesday ...
I can't remember what it was that made me think of one of these stories, but then while I was thinking about I remembered... hey I kinda got left somewhere by myself for a long amount of time probably around the same timeframe. And stuff like this doesn't happen anymore without somebody calling the cops or CPS but back then it wasn't weird. Just... annoying to everybody involved. LOL. So, ...
So to conclude the saga of the artist who won't send out the stuff I bought from him... doing a chargeback with our bank today. Disappointing to say the least. So let's see, what have I done the past week? It took me a few days to recover from ABC so last week I didn't get a ton done. Started messing with my new Crait Leia wig. Concerned about how ...
what a week! I am a permanently exhausted pigeon. Since I last left off, Scott got in Tuesday! Chase took the rest of the week off so the two of them could go get in to trouble and just hang out. Meanwhile I still had to work and was up at 5:30 every morning so I could work extra to be off Friday. UGH. But look what came in the mail ...
It's been about a month since I posted my Dragoncon State of the Union. I thought it was time to update since then. As a reminder: I put everything on hold for about 2 weeks while I quickly whipped up a Misato costume for Anime Blues Con this coming weekend. It was nice to take a break from stuff and work on something simple. 1. Dr Crusher: Suit is still in the ...
We are now beginning WEEK FOUR of having no AC at work. UGH. They were here last week on wednesday working on it, had a crane lifting parts in place. And yet its still not working today, what is happening?! The biggest issue with it is I think this is the reason my face is broken out like a hormonal 14 year old. I'm sweating and gross almost everyday, I've gotten ...
Yes it's 2 posts this week again! Wow! (And you may have seen this post up earlier this week... I'd originally meant to schedule it for Friday 7/5 but accidentally published it earlier and didn't catch it til later. Guess I could've left it but I like to space things out, so I went in and rescheduled it to post the correct day!) But I've been slowly working on this post off ...
