    when i had to have that shirt

    Ok, never mind about the sketch journal thing. I can’t figure out how to make it show for everybody without making it public. Ah well. I bought waaaay too many songs for my Ipod last night. I’ve used about a gig (not all that was bought songs – I burned a good portion of my car CDs into it too.)…

    when i was kawaii

    I had a convention dream last night for the first time in ages… got to katsucon on thursday, spent the night, and in the morning got up to put on tohru and it wasn’t finished. I was so upset I was shaking! I don’t know what brought that on. I haven’t had con dreams like that in a long time,…

    Dad needs to be Qui-Gon

    I think that in my off time in between MTAC and Comic Con (which is to say, in between April and July), I’m going to make my dad a Qui-Gon Jinn costume. He rented a jedi costume back for Halloween 2000 and made a good Qui-Gon, so I know he wouldn’t mind doing it again. That way whenever I need…

    when i wanted to show off all my shoes

    omg, I just got a message from an italian foot fetishist who wants me take pics of my barefeet and send them to him! lmao!!! For anybody who has read The Princess Diaries I’m reminded of Lily’s stalker… remember, she wanted to devoted an entire episode of her public access show to modelling every one of her shoes, but never…

    when i was not in a slump

    Slump?! HA! I laugh in the face of slumps! Finally finished it. I posted the lineart over at the daily sketch too. More fun 404 referrers: jumpingjellyfish ihaveastuffedfrognamedjepettobutherefuses toeatfliesbecausehesallergictothem And there were two from last night that I didn’t write down: something about yemen (forksinyemen? can’t remember…) monkeypants! There is a little teeny tiny convention here today. I want to…

    when cath peed on the uno cards

    Another good one! http://kelldar.com/flyingorientalalienlemurz You guys certainly know how to make me laugh! Ok, Mema’s. There’s really not much to tell. We watched Terminator 3 which was good. Something got Cath tickled that night, and while laughing she spilled her coke on the bed. So that’s where we said Cath peed on the bed. On Monday, we all went to…

    Shopping and Manga Belldandy updates

    Fixed some random broken and non working things around the site. Any outside links should NOT open in these little windows – so let me know if you see any that do. I think I got them all but I can’t be sure. I finally decided on my second Dragoncon 2004 costume – I’m not telling what it is though!…

    when i yelled pants

    I’ve gotten a surprising amount of hits from the 404 page to the stupid LOTR page – as such, I’ve seen a few of the “whatever you want that doesn’t make sense” part of the URL that people have put in. Winner for best one (out of the ones I’ve seen, I’m sure there were some great ones I didn’t):…

    when i made a new 404

    HAHA!! For the first time in YEARS I have a 404 file not found page!! I haven’t had a custom one since I was on Simplenet. Yeah it’s kinda dumb but as soon as I found out how easy it is to make one since Hispeed got bought out I had to make one! Hehe. Just type in kelldar.com/whatever you…

    Site updated

    I finally got enough of this new design finished to put it up; it’s taken forever. Also added my new Arwen Wedding dress, and my Quidditch uniform. Updated upcoming conventions. And of course the new design. Added the new “tips” section – it’s not open yet, tho. The pattern guide will be moved there soon. New link banners in the…

    when i got ripped off

    If anyone out there is a member of this Go-Gaia site, could I ask you a biiiiiig favour? This is a rip-off of my 2000 XMas Card It’s near impossible to figure out where to go to report this if you’re not a member. I tried my luck with the feedback form but I doubt it’ll get to the right…

    when i misheard song lyrics

    We, oddly enough, had an Elton John Christmas this year. Dad gave mom Tumbleweed Connection and Madman Across the Water on CD, not knowing that she had also bought me Goodbye Yellow Brick Road on CD. (all of those we had on album, but I had been wanting Goodbye Yellow Brick Road on CD for AGES… it was one of…

    when I got a sword

    My parents FINALLY gave in, after 3 Christmases of asking for it, they finally got me Glamdring (Gandalf’s sword). It’s SWEET!! Also some action figures, clothes, LOTR trival pursuit, lots of DVDs, purple velvet for a cloak. All in all a very good haul. I’m going to have breakfast and put my things away. Going to my aunt’s this afternoon…

    ensconced in velvet

    Mom gave me some purple velvet for Christmas to be used to make a cape. Buuut now I’m all tempted to make the Arwen Hope Dress with it instead. That’s my favourite dress from LOTR, I think… I love the colours. I’ll have to measure it and see how many yards I’ve got…

    when i updated after new orleans

    Ok sorry I haven’t posted lately but if you missed it there was a big long post in my livejournal about the trip, with photos and stuff and pics of my Arwen costume from ROTK opening. Got back from Mema’s last night – haven’t opened my gifts from my parents yet, I’m waiting on them to wake up 😀

    Arwen pics!

    I put Arwen on again to take some shots of it, since I didn’t get any at the premiere 🙁 I did have a fabulous time wearing it, but we got there so late that there was no time to take pics or show it off… oh well.

    Well let’s just jump right in shall we? Cath got to my house around 7:30 monday morning and we piled into my car and went over to pick up Mel. Then we picked up Josh and met up with Mel’s parents at a gas station, and Mel and Josh rode with her parents the first leg of the trip while…
