Ok let's get this thing over with! Wednesday morning we were up before the sun, headed over to Ash's house to pick her up. This was absolutely the tightest packing job we've ever had... That's my purple duffel bag shoved in sideways in the front, which resulted in my (somewhat pricey) makeup remover spilling everywhere. Thankfully I keep all spillables in a bag but i had to wash everything else ...
This morning was the first time my feet HAVEN'T hurt going up and down the stairs in our house, and I've regained feeling in the little toe on my left foot. Unexplained bruise, scrape on my ankle, and spots of eyeliner i still can't get off are still hanging around, along with a non-stop migraine I've had since before dragoncon. Anyway, this will not be my recap post -- I'll ...
omg hi I haven't posted this week. I was trying to wait til I had all the new photoshoot pics uploaded, and now that I've got them I'm like... augh I haven't done my wrap-up post for this year! So I'm doing this first instead of a regular post and I'll do a post about Christmas next. So at the end of 2020 here's what I wanted to accomplish in 2021: 1. Star ...
Ok I was hoping to have this post up last week, but Chase had a lot of trouble exporting the photos and I was only getting them in chunks. I think I've got all of them now, or at least, most of them. Might be a few more stragglers. Besides uploading pics, last week was absolutely crazy at work, and only going to get crazier... I spent most evenings laying ...
I started to title this "back to real life" but I realized doing something normal like going to Dragon Con is real life. Going back to the day-to-day of the last year is the fake life. So -- Dragon Con was actually pretty great. I had my reservations, as you may have noticed in the last post. But the low crowds, the people, the volunteers... everything was great. Of course ...
Here we are beginning the last week of July. It's not a great Monday as it is, I have a migraine and 2 conference calls today which means my brain is basically saying "no" to any other work. I swear a call may only be an hour long but my brain is like, we have to build in an hour before the call to prepare and then an hour after the ...
I know I just posted yesterday, it's dragoncon season, I'll post as much as I want. I came up with what I think is my finalized line-up. So let's go through 'em, because I was finally able to order a ton of stuff yesterday and I have a better trajectory than I did in yesterday's post. 1. Wanda Got my HTV ordered and it'll be here thursday. I also bought boots! ...
remember how I called a post a couple of weeks ago "lost weekend"? Well I take that back. This was it. This was the lost weekend. Ugh! I was so excited to have a 3 day weekend and get a lot of costume work done. I ended up being so stuck that by Sunday I didn't do ANYTHING. We ending up binging the last 3 episodes of The Queen's Gambit (which I ...
So I have been getting. stuff. done. So I had 4 costumes in mind for dcon this year. Let's just go through the list. 1. Padme (and Bail) No progress here since last week on my end - still waiting on my fabric swatch for the pleated sections, and switched gears and ended up not experimenting with the applique stuff. I was going to start on the Bail pants, but did other ...
