Breha Organa
On a random note, sometime (more than likely next year, as I don’t have time for it this year), if Chase ever decides to make the Bail Organa costume, I seriously want to make Breha to go with it. It’s such a pretty costume. Hopefully I’m going to make a fabric store run tomorrow. If I don’t get sidetracked at…

when my ears wouldn’t pop
ARRRRRGH I am feeling better tonight, still a little clogged up, but I have more energy and don’t feel so zapped. The one thing that is still bugging me is the feeling my ears haven’t popped. Actually it’s changed a bit from that, it just feels like there’s something in there. Sound is muffled, and it gets worse if I…

SDCC 2006 Prep
Now that COSI is behind me, here’s what I need to focus on for Comic Con: Vader Chase has pretty much got everything done. The pants still need some tweaking, I need to hem his cape, and get the shirt started. The shirt won’t take long (at least I hope it won’t). Now that he has his shoulder armor I…

WSMI at COSI 2006 Pics!
Since I did the Wonderfest post over at my other journal, I’ll do the COSI one here! A strange crew on the falcon… Friday! Ash and I left Chase’s apt and took a cab to the airport. The cab showed up 20 minutes earlier than it was supposed to, so we got to the airport waaaaaaay early. Flight was uneventful,…

Off to COSI
Ok; off to COSI! I’m not taking my computer, but Ash is, so hopefully I’ll be able to post once or twice. OH, and Leia is finished; it looks great, I’m so pleased with it!

Wonderfest 2006 Pics!
Well, I’m back from Wonderfest. Unfortunately I didn’t get to go to the Ren Faire as I woke up sick on Monday 🙁 But we decided to definitely go next year, and to go earlier in May when it’s cooler. Anyway here’s pics and new costume stuff: Chase and I drove up Friday night – it was an easy drive,…

when my bandwidth was high
I got an email this morning telling my bandwidth for the month was at 75%. It’s never that high! I dug through my referrers looking for someone somewhere direct linking, but couldn’t find anything major (btw, I hate the new referrer program my webhost uses – on forums, it doesn’t record the actual URL it came from, just the top…

Ripley and GG Leia progress
“Different” Leia: Need to cut the slits, hem it, and add the hood, and I decided to go ahead and make a new belt. Or at least try to before next weekend. Gonna hit Tandy leather today. Ripley: Got all my pieces, just start altering and putting them together. New ANH Leia: No progress… I need to get on it.

Renaissance Festival
On Memorial Day, I’m going to my first ever Renaissance Festival!! I’m so excited – I’ll be at wonderfest sat and sun in Louisville, but then I’m going to stay in Nashville on Memorial Day, so we’re gonna go check it out. Chase said they trooped it last year and had a blast. Of course I’m torn over what to…

when i bought a new camera
So I bought a new camera: EOS Digital Rebel XT SLR Digital Camera. It comes wednesday, I can’t wait!! Yesterday as I walked by my car I noticed my back tire was flat. Chase changed it for me today, but what a drag. Slightly worried about driving home tomorrow. I’m taking the car in this week to get it all…

Updates for everything!!
Progress report: “Different” Leia: (the other “silly” one for wonderfest, i’m excited about it, LOL) It’s almost done. I still need to cut the slits up the sides and hem it, and put the sleeves in and hem those, and add the hood. That’s it! I have a little weird place on the neck i want to fix, and a…

COSI Plans
I just bought our air tickets to COSI 🙂 We leave friday morning out of Nashville at 9:40… arrive in Columbus at 11:50. We’ll have time to maybe take a quick swim and then head over to COSI for opening night! I’m Amidala from 5-11. Chase will be flying out after work, I think, so he won’t get there until…

sooooooo
I know, I know, I’m so bad running off and hardly updating in ages. I copied some of my pics and convention posts from my livejournal and brought them over here. As I said there, I’ve basically been out of town every weekend since March – I haven’t been this busy in ages, and I don’t have a free weekend…

a long overdue update
(EDIT: This was a catch-all collection of recent costume photos and events originally posted to my livejournal. Since I ported it over here, it may be a bit redundant.) As I said in the last quick post, sorry for disappearing the past couple of months! Besides the usual weekday work drudge, I’ve been out of town almost every weekend since…

Free Comic Book Day 2006 Pics!
We trooped Free Comic Book Day in Nashville this past weekend. Here’s a few pics. I wore regular Leia for most of it, which I have no pics of… then I changed into Slave Leia for a bit and got pics with the aliens. Then we went to eat.
