another weekend, another set of mosquito bites
Yep, despite having doused myself with Off last night, I still got about 9 bites while outside dyeing my Endor poncho yesterday evening. I have decided to make a little experiment of them, and trying various home remedies… so far using deodorant seems to be the best. Well enough about that, this is my costume journal not my mosquito bite…

Updates & Ewok Village Leia Pics!
I’ve been pretty well KO’ed by sinus mess for a week and a half or so now… sucks! I think it’s behind me now, though. Here’s a few quick updates… Doll Leia – got the bottom and top made, the top needs to be fixed (one side hangs funny, need to pick it out and do it again), and needs…

when the day was crazy
Yesterday was madness. First off, I was trying to get to work by no later than 9:30 (I usually get there at 10). Went out to my car, and it wouldn’t start. Luckily mum is on summer break, so she was home. I woke her up and she came out and tried to jump my car. Didn’t work. We kept…

we have a photographer
we met with him yesterday, liked him and his style, great price, and we get ownership of the images (so we don’t have to pay him everytime we want a print, we own the full size digital photos) Chase is dropping off the contract & deposit today 🙂

when i couldn’t sleep so i did a budget
It’s 4am and I can’t sleep…I don’t know how long I’ve been awake for, I think since around 2. For some reason I’m kinda hungry, though I have no reason to be. My mind just won’t stop thinking! I keep thinking about everything we still need to book and pay for for the wedding. It’s got me really worried tonight.…

Dragoncon 2007 plans
Travel for Dragoncon is finally completely arranged! We’ve had our room at the marriott for a while; but we rented our van last week. We paid a little extra to be able to pick it up the wednesday before and drop it off tuesday instead of monday. So we don’t have the rush trying to check out monday and get…

The Boushh box came!
I’ve been out of town since thursday, and came home today to find my box had arrived! Oooh, the excitement! The fellow who owned it before (who was working on it for his wife, and then they apparently decided not to finish it, and sold me everything they had for it) has already done some work, but it’s still got…

getting lost, part two
Dropped Chase off at the airport. Turns out they’re doing a lot of construction around the airport, causing confusion on my part. I took what I thought to be my turn out of the airport and back to the interstate, but instead ended up completely lost. I drove for a few minutes, trying to get my bearings to see if…

To Open the toys or Not To Open the toys
You guys know I don’t care anything about keeping the toys and collectables I buy in their packaging, right? I love ripping open a new toy, and then setting up the figures in a silly way. I’ve have a handful of things over the years that I decided to leave in their packaging – mostly, the big LOTR action figure…

The Last Big Purchase… a box of Boushh
Well, yesterday, I spent a whole lot of money that I probably shouldn’t have, but in the long-run I figure it’s a deal. I now have the bulk of a project I wasn’t going to even start on for a long time winging its way to me as I type this. As a result, I’m probably going to delay most…

Adventurecon 2007 Pics!
I’ll start with Friday 🙂 Indy wanted to go! We loaded up (again, after getting permission to borrow my aunt’s car!) and set off. We made pretty good time, got in around 9:30, I think? Checked in, found everybody, then unloaded the car and hit the sack, because we were really tired after the drive! Saturday morning we got up…

Funeral Padme Progress…
Padme is going; but she’s not really finished. After this con the collar and the few sequins I sewed on will be taken off, and the cape will be dyed some more. I may also remake the collar. But it’s wearable. I hope. I packed Hoth Leia, Ewok Village Leia, and Slave Leia, along with Funeral Padme, Corde, and Wonder…

out of time… still trying to finish Funeral Padme
Wow, I have completely run out of time. I did one more dip in the dye for the cloak this morning, but its the last one I have time for before we leave tomorrow. I’m still not happy with the colour. It’s still not dark enough, too bright. I don’t think I have time to put the sequins on the…

I’m blue… Funeral Padme
Wow, last night was interesting. I painted the cape last night. I almost got done – there’s about 15% left in the center I need to do. I just had to stop last night, my back was killing me from leaning over the stupid thing, and I was COVERED. I mean, my hands were completely blue (I looked like mystique!),…

Ewok Village Leia and Funeral Padme progress
Sorry, no pics to post of stuff in progress today… My laptop died. Luckily my hard drive is ok. I bought a hard drive enclosure yesterday, and was able to get most of what I hadn’t backed up off of it, and onto my external (back up) hard drive. There were a few files and folders that I needed into…

The Good and the Bad
The Good: Put down payment on the honeymoon!! Paid off our ceremony and reception site!! Had a cookout tonight! Chase got me a Boushh doll! 😀 The Bad: Can’t use miles my aunt and uncle were giving us for the honeymoon! Haven’t felt like sewing at all the past two days! Spent three hours looking for a decent swimsuit. Every…
