    when i was anxious about flying

    Oh, I forgot! Could someone who has flown recently (since September 11) tell me how the security check goes, the deal with carry-ons and all that? I’m going to have to fly twice this year, at least (to Animazement and Otakon) and I want to know these things so that I can plan ahead. Should I just not carry anything…

    Upcoming Costume Ideas…

    Hmm… I’m gonna go out into the woods and take some new pictures of my elf costume this afternoon. Ash and I talked for a long time about our costumes at the basketball game saturday night. I can’t find the stupid piece of paper where I wrote it all down, but Ash is looking at Meryl, pink outfit Ling Xiaoyu,…

    Which Wig for She-ra?

    Does the “Marilyn Blonde” Wig on this page: http://www.vavoom-gifts.com/bettie.html look enough like She-Ra’s hair? I think I’m going to get it, and try to curl it up a little more to give it a little more wave. I don’t want to spend a lot on this wig and the price on this one is much better than the ones I’ve…

    when i forgot to register

    I just found out classes start back Monday. I haven’t even registered yet!! Normally classes start back on the 14th or so. That’s when I was thinking. Cath goes back the 14th. So I was going to go register sometime this weekend for classes on the 14th. They chopped an entire week off our holiday. Ugggh. I don’t know what…

    Oy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer isn’t anime!; Besides she doesn’t really have a costume, she just wears normal clothes! Go read Priscilla’s epic poem now!! (and yeah, Priscilla, I just got a tablet for christmas!) My head itches. I guess I should get up and go to work. *yawn*

    when i made cosplay plans

    All right, pardon me but I gotta spill a little cosplay talk into Whisky. Not because I want to annoy you, no, it’s because I need your opinion! The costumes I’m planning for next year… er, THIS year are: Rally Vincent (mostly done, will be won when bored at AZ), Misato’s NERV uniform (for MidSouthCon in march) She-Ra (MidSouthcon in…

    Otakon 02 ahoy

    YAY!!!! My aunt had been calling around in Baltimore trying to find a suitable hotel for us to stay at for Otakon. She’d called lots of places, and told me when she found one she was going to go ahead and book the rooms. Yesterday I realised something, I’d forgotten to tell her to make sure it was really close…

    when it was 2002

    Happy 2002 or something XD our ‘party’ last night was pretty dull in the end. We went out to eat for Ash’s birthday then to Ash’s grandparents, then back to our house. Ash and I played Sims for a while, then threw PopPops at various things in the garage, then watched part of “The Worst Witch” and then finally we…

    Upcoming Convention Schedule

    happy new year! Hmmm… so far… MidSouthCon: She-Ra and Misato Animazement: Lulu, Xianhua, and Faye Otakon: Urd That’s all I’ve got. I want at least one more costume for Otakon. I’d like to have 3 new ones for Otakon, but if I only have time for 2, that’s cool. I’m going to take Utena with me Otakon, and Ruby Moon…

    Planning out Urd…

    Well, I showed the Urd costume to mom. She didn’t flip, thank god. She suggested using flesh coloured material to cover that part, but I don’t want to do that. I thought maybe one strip of flesh coloured underneath my chest and then spirit gum the rest, maybe… I don’t know. I have a long time to think about it.…

    Urd & She-Ra updates

    Not much happening lately. I finally found a full length picture of Urd’s movie costume, the purple one. I’m gonna be doing that for Otakon, if mom doesn’t have a conniption when she sees it. I’m scared to show it to her! Hopefully Cath can go with us, and figure out some way to make a Belldandy costume. Maybe she…

    when i wanted to do some fanart

    I want to do LOTR fanart but I haven’t felt like drawing anything lately. I did draw a lot of horses while trying to draw my Christmas card. Does that count? I don’t think it does… I’m really tired at the moment… my parents and I were going to watch Mummy Returns but I dunno if I can stay awake…

    when it was christmas vacation

    BIG LONG THING ABOUT CHRISTMAS WEEKEND AHEAD! Now I’m sure the big question is, why didn’t my card get sent out Christmas Eve? I spent the whole weekend at my grandparents house with my cousins, of course, so I was already THERE Christmas Eve morning. As usual. Typically, Christmas Eve day goes something like this: grandkids are already up there,…

    when i got a bunch of stuff for christmas

    All right, all right, let’s talk about Christmas!! I can’t list everything I got. Too much small stuff. Too much stuff spread over two days. Hm, let’s see, Christmas Eve. A jack russell terrier pillow, a big what-do-you-call-it afghan? of the Beatles, a Beatles calendar, $50 gift certificate to Toys R Us, $25 to Target, zipper socks, Christmas toe socks,…
