Cleaning
I took all but one of my photos down off my desk at work yesterday. Not for any bad reason or anything, but because I didn’t have a single picture on there more recent than 2005. Get this – I didn’t even have a picture of my husband on there, because the most recent picture up there was before I…

A new start to my blog
I have been very neglectful of my personal blog the past couple of years. I’ve decided I ought to use it more – and not just to post stupid memes – so I’ve decided to start fresh, with a brand new blog and a brand new design. I have yet to redesign this — that will be coming soon, but…

Disney World 2009 pics
We had one full day (Magic Kingdom/Hollywood studios) and 2 half days (epcot). Despite the fact that’s really not long enough, especially for someone who has never been there (Chase & Scott!) we had a LOT of fun (which is why we kept skipping out on the convention way early to go back to the parks… LOL) Scott, me and…

Megacon & Photoshoot Pic Dump
I finally finished digging out the megacon pics Chase missed. Here’s the smugmug set. The new pics start at the little boy dressed as Link. I’m just going to post 2 of them, because they’re of Kevin. Here he is in his ebay jedi Luke costume again. I need to take it up and find him some better fitting boots.…

box full of geekery.
My rebel legion trading cards came this week – I had no idea there would be this many! LOL. They look really good though, I’m pleased.

Plans
I planned to work on stuff this weekend – haven’t gotten a thing done so far. I want to work on Belle, and I also need to make the little skirt-thingie for Chase’s clonetrooper. The clonetrooper thing will be first on the list once I make myself go to the work room – earlier this week I started putting together…

Megacon 2009 Pics
Honestly I kinda feel really bad we didn’t stay at Megacon very long at all. I missed seeing a lot of people I wanted to see and just didn’t really have time to enjoy it. But — like I said in previous posts, Silk Spectre was fun to wear. Starfire was a giant FAIL… and the makeup remover I used…

One more Sleeping Beauty pic
Chase processed this one for me 🙂

Sally Jupiter and Aurora pics
Thought I’d toss a few pics up here before I head to work. Only one from megacon, still waiting on Chase to send me the rest. Here’s a few more of the Sleeping Beauty photoshoot — still haven’t gotten through them all, though. back to real life today… 🙁

hello from florida…
…and I’m going home to snow. It hasn’t snowed in Memphis all year (except for a light dusting that lasted less than a day in Jan), and now that I’m leaving Florida, what does it do? 6 inches! Yuck! Anyway. Confession time: we hardly spent any time at the convention. Friday we left around the time we planned to go…

Sally Jupiter done!
(edit: This might be the absolutely worst featured image header I’ve done so far.) Well everything is basically done, I guess. Costumes are packed and in a box in my car to be shipped out today. Still got to finish packing regular clothes and stuff tonight. Our flight is at 1 tomorrow, we should be in Orlando around 4:30ish, if…

Sally Jupiter updates
I got the rings sewn in place on the front of the cincher, that took up the bulk of yesterday because I’m so slow at hand-sewing (meaning I sew a little bit, get distracted, sew a little bit, get distracted…). I got the buttons sewn on the gloves and the dress attached to the collar. Tonight once I get home…

Valentines!
So Valentine’s Day was really nice… Chase surprised me with a Beatles DVD and a toy set of two unicorns (Good Unicorn vs Evil Unicorn lol). Then we went to the Tower Room, a restaurant I didn’t even know was there… it’s on the 33rd floor of Clark Tower, and it was really cool watching the sunset from way up…

Sally Jupiter progress, and Aurora pics
sorry I haven’t posted much!! been busy 😉 The new waist cincher… putting the rings in the front tonight. I’m hoping to finish it off tonight. Once I do I can put it on and get the hem of the “dress” part marked and cut off and finished, that’ll be this weekend. I need to finish off the top edge…

Sally Jupiter progress pics
I got the Belle dress basically put together. Tonight I hope to finish off most of the blue part and maaaybe start on the shirt. I finished the waist cincher, outside of putting in the eyelets up the front. I’m going to ask Chase to do that for me tonight, I hate putting in eyelets. Once that’s done I can…

Sally Jupiter updates
So had a long sewing day yesterday, only to basically end up back where I started. I decided to remake the Silk Spectre waist cincher – I’m much happier with the new one but it took all day. I ran out of black thread at the end so didn’t get it completely finished. Oh here’s my boots! A couple of…

Animal Crossing pics
I stole some pics from Ash. She took & uploaded all these. All I did was steal them. Me (on the left, with WW shirt), Ash (top), and Kevin (bottom) standing in my living room! With my fishing trophy! Ash (on the left) and me outside of Nook’s. Us meeting Kevin for the first time. Like my gas mask? My…

Sorry I haven’t posted here in a while! I was very lazy over the holidays and it was really nice LOL I got a lovely new top hat for Zatanna for Christmas! That’s really the only thing costume related I got, outside of a fabric store gift card. I have gotten a start on Silk Spectre I. I’ve the chiffon…

christmas 2008!
Our first Christmas was really nice 🙂 I got a new laptop bag, a really nice top hat for my Zatanna costume (the one I had at dragoncon was a rental), a new external harddrive, lolcat magnets, the new dvd shelf we wanted, a wine cooler (LOL yeah we drink so much wine), lots of new clothes, etc. Also a…
