my mind is in dragoncon mode

I'm sorry to folks out there who really aren't interested in dragoncon but my mind has officially kicked over into that mode, so expect to hear pretty much nothing else for the next 3 months (before & after LOL) We finally bought our tickets today. We say EVERY YEAR that we're going to buy our tickets for next year at the previous year's con. (ie, at the convention last year we ...

Dragoncon photoshoots & Schedule

But here's where I'll specifically be: Friday: Ladies of Gotham (in Black Canary) - 6pm Saturday: Parade (in Ms Marvel) - 10am Marvel Photoshoot (in Magik) - 4:30pm Sunday: ...

heart attack

or, "Hard Attack" as my cousin once wrote. Woke up this morning and found an email from the Atlanta Marriott Marquis confirming our reservations for Dragoncon - again. I didnt't know why, I already had a confirmation email from them. I clicked on it and quickly realised the difference - it was confirming Thursday-Monday instead of Thursday-Tuesday. I dug up my other email and it was the same confirmation number ...

costume catch up

So I posted my Dragoncon list the other day but didn't really go over it. I thought I'd post it again and update each. 1. Lady Gaga I've got the top basically made. I've got the organza cut to cover it, but haven't put it on yet - I'm worried I might run out since I'm using the same organza on costume #3, and if I do I don't want to end ...

Dcon 2010 Costume Schedule

…And the magic words were said.

It finally updates after I've been trying to get it to update for a while. Geez. Sunday was my birthday. It was awesome. It was a surprise party and absolutely had no idea. Chase took me to my fav place (The Melting Pot)... we came home to what looked like an empty house... and everybody was there!! It was a Beatle-themed party, because my main gift was Beatles Rock Band (...

Dragoncon 2009 Recap

I figured I'd better go ahead and make a decent post about the weekend before I start to forget LOL Thursday morning we managed to get out of town on time, even after going to Starbucks! Yay. Check-in at the hotel was crowded, it gets more crowded every year, more people tend to come in early these days, I guess. It took 2 bell carts (as usual) to get us inside, ...
