Belle: Then and Now

Sorry I haven't posted about Dragoncon yet! I'll have a big post ready to go this weekend. In the meantime - As close as we could get to recreating my 2005 Belle pic -- they've remodeled the stairs and the angle isn't quite right, but I still like seeing the two together :)

Dragoncon 2005 pics!!

I meant to put this in the last post and went back to edit, but then I figured, eh, let's put it in a new post. Dragoncon put their official pictures up... here's my favourites of the ones I found of us. This little girl in the pink princess dress hung around us a lot backstage (you can see her in our own picture). I remembered a photographer taking pics ...

when a security guard got in my face

At Dragoncon, they have, in the past couple of years, had a ban on photography from like, 7-11 (or something like that) at night in the Hyatt. I completely understand their reasons for this (fire marshall - taking pics clogs up the paths too much, and there's not much room over there). So I'm fine with the ban, I don't really care. This year, we just went and hung over ...

when i had to unpack

I found my embroidery sample, finally. Kes had gotten it, I think - it was under the ottoman. Today was fairly nice. I saw my grandparent's new house, it was very cute! I really like it. I'm glad they've moved. I finally got my boxes back (they've been at my aunt's house since they came back from FedEx) - I'm dreaded unpacking them. I just threw everything in the boxes ...

Post-Dragoncon 05 again

First and foremost I wanted to write about Stitch. Since I didn't get to write about him at all while making him, since Ash wanted him kept secret. This project has been on my mind since April, when we first came up with the skit idea while swimming at C3. I started out by finding a front shot of his face, blowing it up to the size I wanted, printing ...

Dragoncon 2005 pics!

4th Year at Dragoncon! So! Thursday morning I got up and went over to Ash's where my mum picked us up and took us to the airport. Ash and I sat around for a while after checking in. Anyway, Cat and Melissa met us there and... um, do any of you guys remember being in the airport after security? Cause I sure don't. Then the plane ride was like, the ...

ugh planes

Can I just be sedated until we get to Atlanta? We're leaving for Dragoncon tomorrow, and I'm a bundle of nerves. For various reasons. Everybody keep your fingers crossed that everything goes ok tomorrow! But anyway, we'll be getting into ATL around 4:30 tomorrow afternoon. I won't be around the hotel that night, though - we've got tickets to see Phantom of the Opera at 8 - yay! :) My costume schedule is ...

when the power was out

So, the rain has stopped, for a while, anyway. Due to the fact we haven't had much rain around here lately, we didn't get flooded - even though it rained ALL night, our neighbor's front yard wasn't flooded (and it always floods when we get a lot of rain - the front part of his yard is very low, kids used to go swimming in it after a rain). I ...
