Argh. I came over here to write something important, and now I've forgotten it. Must have not been too important. So I'll do something else. Got my Katsucon prereg confirmation today. We're flying out Thursday night (the 12th), layover in Atlanta, arriving in Washington just after midnight. Yuck. Leaving kinda early that Sunday morning, so I won't be doing any con stuff that day. My new costumes for it are ...
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, plus have over a month to finish just TWO costumes, ...
Saw Matrix 3 last night - it was ok. I guess my main problem was that I had been spoiled on the entire thing a couple of months ago. I need a convention fix! The only one anytime soon is numa rei no con in december and I still haven't found anybody to go with me. I have a project to work on today. Must get started!
This morning had to go work at my cousin's "Walk for a Wish" 5K. Mom and this other girl were at one place keeping cars from coming in, and dad and I were in another doing the same thing. But dad and I had the car, we just sat in it and would get out only if a car came along, so we were ok. But dang it was cold ...
some random notes: -Mom cleaned my Belldandy dress and managed to get all the nasty mud stains off the back of the white skirt (from when it rained at dragoncon). She also cleaned my plugsuit and got those stains off of it, too. -Almost finished with my quidditch cloak. the sweater lady FINALLY called and said she'd have my sweater done by the 29th at the latest. I'm really nervous ...

I am a nervous wreck. I'm up at 7 AM because I couldn't sleep thinking about this weekend. I'm skipping my classes today - I would be completely useless. It would be pointless. I AM going to work though, that will keep me busy with things I need to do and may also calm my nerves. If I were off today I don't know what I'd do all day, just wander ...
Couple of things today: *BAD weather last night - lots of hail and lightning and thunder like all night. I woke up this morning to find out a tornado hit Jackson where my grandparents live. My grandparents are OK but ALL of the windows on the back and left side of the house were broken (and that's a lot of windows). My cousin and his wife left their house and ...
I would just like to say here that I do not want to be a babysitter and tour guide at Dragoncon. That is all. Anyway. Other than that, I'm SO looking forward to Dragoncon. FINALLY a convention where all 3 or us - me, ash and cath - are together. So, so excited. God, Cath is going to LOVE dragoncon. I already know me and Ash love Dragoncon :D I don't ...
Oh, btw, I'm not going to Nimbus this year. It's out... too much other stuff going on this summer - Akon in june, AX in july and Dragoncon in august. Just don't have the extra funds or time for another one squeezed in there. Maybe next year...
