Every weekend should be a 4 day weekend

What a nice weekend. We barely did anything. Thanksgiving day we got up and headed to family lunch. I curled my hair overnight and it looked cute for a couple of hours. It was pretty much deflated by the time we got home. After we got home and I had my own MST3K Turkey Day -- Hercules Unchained, The Brain That Wouldn't Die, Jack Frost, part of Final Sacrifice. ...

Leia progress, etc

My patreon finally has some content on it! Going forward I'll be saving my instagram story breakdowns over there after they've expired on IG, and I have a slightly more "walk through" recap of my new Leia dress construction so far up over there, too. I plan on doing this with all of my costumes - more in-depth, step-by-step instruction as well as the breakdown videos. If I can think ...

MCFC, ‘Tis the Season, a lost ID, lost power, and lost my mind

This weekend was nuts. But let's ease into it with a picture of Luna. Friday was a normal Friday at work, just steadily busy, until around 2 it was like the world went mad and like 10 hectic problems developed at once. And I had to leave on time because I was on a tight schedule. I ended up leaving about 5 minutes late, not terrible. Headed on out to pick up Kevin... ...

Leia progress!

I felt kinda off-and-on weird all weekend, I'm chalking it up to upping my dose of one of my medications. One second I'd be freezing cold and then suddenly burning up and drenched in sweat. One second ready to go out and ride my bike for an hour and the next my head pounded/can't keep my eyes open. Ugh! Very frustrating. But I did finally make some headway on ...

Finding Tobey, more pics

Another busy weekend!! Friday night we had the Indie Memphis red carpet event! So Thursday night I washed my hair and put it up in curlers. Got up the next morning and it was rainy and humid and I knew if I took them down before work, my curls would be GONE by that night. So I left my curlers in and went to work LOL MY TIKI BIRD DRESS ...

Halloween, Part 2

Well this was probably the most disappointing Halloween in a long time. Since the only people who see me at my job are my coworker and my boss, and it was cold that day... I just wore Chase's Spike kigu to work over regular clothes. Over the weekend I decided that for Halloween night, I'd wear my DCNU Wonder Woman to hand out candy. It needed some repairs, so I ...

Halloween weekend!!

IT'S HALLOWEEN YALL! We had a really fun weekend. Friday night started with cooking dinner and settling in on the couch to start watching Stranger Things 2. We got through 2 episodes that night. Saturday morning we slept in a bit, and then I started getting ready. (How to tell a photoshoot is happening at my house) We had very pleasant weather last week (70s mostly) and then overnight Friday it got ...

The Nun Abides

Spent the last week going to play practice, having a migraine, and working on the nun. The robe isn't much to look at. Followed the pattern exactly for this -- I did make it a little bigger because I'd rather work down than have it be too small. This is a really thin black satin and I there are times it's almost leather-like, especially when interfaced, so I think that's ...
