The Time my Granddad Went to an Anime Convention
When I went to Katsucon 2003 (my first year there), my grandparents went with me. Obviously my grandparents know nothing about anime, and I thought they might go sight-see or something on saturday, but they didn’t – they just kinda hung out, and, I think, had a relatively good time. Well, saturday afternoon rolls around, and I ask my granddad…

when we played with Izzy
It’s nice being around a cat that acts like a normal cat (my aunt’s cat Izzy – I’m house sitting). Calvin is such a grumpy old man, all he wants to do is sleep and eat and hunt. Chase had a bunch packing paper his planes were in, and he sat it on the floor and Izzy went wild… she’s…

when the x-files kept me up
So last night, I decided I wanted to go to bed early, because lately I’ve been waking up in the morning later than I like to. So I closed up shop at 10, I had a snack, and went and read for a little bit. I had the TV on Law and Order (good for falling asleep to) — but…

Website updates
My costume website gets harder to maintain every year… with the design I had before this current one, I never even finished the “friends” and “etc” pages. It was one of those “well, I get to it one day” sort of things. After ages of that design, I got tired of it and decided to revamp and simplify the whole…

when i was dreaming of a con
No continuation of the cool dream last night! Only thing I remember about whatever I dreamed, was I was at a con, and someone had done a costume I’ve been wanting to do, only they were riding in a boat that had wheel on it. American Idol had the Memphis episode on next week!!!! I’m so excited! 😀

when i had a weird dream, again
weird dream last night! I don’t remember the first part of it, except I was like, on this quest or hunt of some kind with a bunch of other people. At one point we ended up at “my house,” which was a huge mansion, with a lot of people hanging out in like a bar area. My mum was in…

Princess Leia & Han Solo blasters!
So, most of this time, this puppy is going to be displayed next to my MR Leia gun (don’t know how just yet) — and when it’s not looking pretty on my wall, it will hopefully be part of a future costume of Chase’s…. 😉 Don’t they look nice together?? LOL

Christmas 2006 Haul
So this weekend was very interesting. Me & Chase, and my three cousins Cath, Rach and David all went to Mema’s Thursday, and stayed with her until Christmas Eve, like we have since we were kids. Thursday was spent shopping, and we rented some movies to watch that night. Unfortunately I had brought my Xbox, not my Playstation, so we…

Injuries, Pains, and other Annoyances
I was thinking about the injuries and other odd things I’ve received while costuming, thought I would chronicle them! 1. Sperrets! I’ve had three costumes that have given me odd sperrets – the first was Yuffie. Wearing fishnets on one arm/hand and one leg led to some odd designs on my skin afterwards, mostly on my arm. My whole right…

Lois updates…
I’m slowing down work on my Lois dress – I don’t need it for what I needed it for, so I guess I’ll just finish it when I want and… I don’t know. It’s not really costume-y enough to wear to a con.

when i redid my room
So, I’m in the midst of re-organizing and redoing my room. For years my room has been primarily purple, black, and mess. Seriously, stuff crammed everywhere there was a spot. As part of my christmas, we’re redoing it… my main inspiration is this Jim Henson poster. Chase gave me that poster for my birthday, and my aunt had it framed…
