when there was a package on the porch
Oh! You know how I said my worst enemy is the mailperson? Well, the mailperson is at it again. Whenever we get packages too large for the mailbox, the mailperson leaves them by the garage. And not off to the side, but just a little in front of the door so that you have to get OUT of the car,…

Pre Dragoncon rush
Finished most of the work on Ocha’s white dress today. Still got to attach the collar and the sleeves. And maybe take up the sides a little bit. Also finished her tail (it’s neat!), and redid part of her wig last night (one curl was kinda funky), and discovered I could use the sewing machine on the vinyl I got…

when i watched he-man
AH! Hah I almost forgot! I managed to catch the last ten minutes of He-Man on cartoon network this afternoon. I had forgotten but was switching around and there it was. One thing I like – Adam doesn’t look exactly like He-Man, only wearing tights and a pink shirt. I had also forgotten – day before yesterday went to Target…

when i was going to take anthropology
I AM TAKING ANTHROPOLOGY!!!!!! Hee!! Anyway. I went in to see what other class I could scrape up for this semester, and she’s looking for an Liberal Arts class in the right time frame (I needed more LA classes), and she goes “All I’ve got is History of Math and Anthropology.” And I think I practically leapt across the desk…

when it was stormy
I have to go up to school today. And then after that I have to go to my mom’s new school to see her class room. Guess I’ll stop on my way home – if it’s not raining too hard – and get that colour remover I need. It’s storming really good here right now. It’s nice. It’s keeping it…

when i read the princess diaries
I really, really love Meg Cabot’s The Princess Diaries series. It’s not exactly my normal reading material, but the movie was a bit of a guilty pleasure for me, so I ended up buying the second book in the series while in Jackson last month. Well, if you go read the books now, make sure you read the FIRST one…

Shadowcat, Padme and Ocha updates

I should have them back by the end of this week. Shadowcat – got boots, got tights, got blue bathing suit bottom. Got fabric…

when contacts were super expensive
Ash – if you see this, I found black contact lenses. I was wrong about the price. It’s higher. $150 for a pair that doesn’t cover the entire eye, $325 for a pair that covers the whole eye. (if anyone knows where one can get black contact lenses ala Evil willow for a cheaper price, let me know.) Um. I…

when it was time to go to mtac
Leaving for MTAC in a few minutes. All week long I have been fighting this horrible zit. I *only* get zits when I’m stressed, which only adds to my stress, of course. Well this one was a doozy. Mom bought me these neutrogena “on the spot” acne patches. Those things are worthless, don’t waste your time. A) they didn’t have…
