    when i looked stupid

    I can’t wear jeans to work this week ’cause the big boss from out of town is there, which only leaves me one pair of pants: my khaki pants. Out of desperation to not wear the same pair of pants ALL week, I decided to try the green pants I wore with my elf costume last year (the only time…

    Amalthea & Utena updates

    I finished Sakura, except I’m going to make some loose socks to wear with it. I got a pattern and fabric for Amalthea yesterday. I got some pretty light lavender satin for it… but they didn’t have what we wanted of it – 4 1/2 yards. THey only have 3.75 or something. So I got that and decided to make…

    I didn’t chicken out, we took the Utena pics! When I got out of the car, tho, my little jewel on the front fell off and broke!! ><; Luckily I’d brought tape so we were able to fix it. Yesterday I was just kicking around different sites and found the wig I wanted for my Susan costume. So I went…

    when indy ran off

    I forgot to mention that yesterday I spent 20 minutes climbing through the woods looking for my crazy dog. She ran off back there and WOULD NOT come out. I had to crawl my way through the underbrush calling for her trying to find her. I felt like some kind of jungle woman. I did find her eventually… and BOY…

    when i finally took some medicine

    Last night I had such a horrible headache!! It was horrible! From 2 in the afternoon to 10 at night. I finally took something for it around 9:30, after trying a nap, a bath, eating… everything I normally do to get rid of a headache. I hate taking medicine, but it was just so bad I finally gave in and…

    Oh and my cosplay journal has comments now, too. I dunno why. It was a spur of the moment thing. And I haven’t updated sketch today… I’m on my comp where the scanner doesn’t work. Tomorrow, tomorrow I promised. I’ve been doing so good at it tho! 😀

    when we argued subcultures

    I told my mother. We were having this discussion in the car Sunday!! I told her that I am a geek. I’m not a nerd, I’m not a dork (well, maybe a little dork). There are differences between the three. They’re hard for me to explain, but there are. You guys know what I’m talking about, right? I am a…

    when leprosy was a thing

    So I went to the mall yesterday morning before work to pick up a CD, and a friend of mine was working at the music store when I get there! I got a free Spider-man ornament and a LOTR keychain! So I was at my aunt’s office and they were doing inventory. My aunt asks me, “Hey, you know what…

    The party tonight was fun! First we all ate a little something, then played some DDR… Then we played our murder mystery game. I was Eve, who was pushing her husband to claim the title of the recently dead duke so she could be a duchess, and who claimed to be from a rich french family but who had actually…

    when we took arwen pics

    Arwen pics are up! I also went back and added a few to my “thought” post from earlier: Mel is going to be Hermione for the HP opening, so I thought I’d wear one of my red wigs and be Ginny. I can’t decide tho, do I want to be a more natural red head and wear my Lina wig?…

    Oh yeah! Before After Before and After Dying… see, all those lighter blonder “honey” spots are gone! Yay! Also you see normally when I wear Hermione, the night before after washing my hair I braid it and let it dry like that (like in the first pic). I didn’t do that this time, cause I didn’t want my hair to…
