this week is a test of patience

Well this weekend was weird. To start off with, last night, I woke up in the middle of the night totally confused. We have a clock in our bedroom that shines the time up onto the ceiling. We haven't changed it since daylight savings so it's been an hour behind. I woke up at one point and was like "it was 3AM last time I woke up why is it 3...

killing it (gently)

GUESS . WHO . FINISHED . THE . JACKET . LAST . NIGHT ! Well ok it's not 100% finished I still have to do the button holes and buttons and steam it but the worst is over. Well, the worst of the jacket. I still have the terrifying pants to START ON. But before I get into all that let's do the usual rewind back into last week. Even though most of what was happening last week ...

MidSouthCon 2018!

I have Tinkerbell and Peter Pan pics! But first let's back up to Friday. I had Friday off, with the intention of maybe going up to the con, but definitely for finishing Kevin's Peter Pan. As it turned out it was lucky I had that day off because we ended up having to have a dishwasher repairman come by (our 1.5 year old dishwasher decided to stop working, wtf), and we ...

Two posts in one day??

I uploaded Kevin's MidSouthCon pics from the digital camera already so I thought I'd go ahead and post them. HERE is the link to the whole gallery! I posted my Disgust/Wonder Woman snapchat but here's Kevin's matching Batman: This little Batman was the cutest EVER Full length: As I mentioned my petticoat is showing too much on the side; I'll have to take it up again. And take up ...

The most random post ever

This weekend was CRAZY busy... Well let me start with Thursday. I started pulling out stuff for our trip this week, and decided our one stitch patch on our park bag looked lonely, so I dragged out my patch collection to see what I could do. After some fiddling around with placement and seeing what would fit, I ended up with the 3 princesses around Stitch (since he's playing a guitar ...

MidSouthCon 2015

This weekend was MidSouthCon of course! (Warning: there is puke in the upcoming story.) It ended up being kind of a strange weekend. Our plans were to take Kevin and let him enjoy the convention while I was doing my panels and whatnot. We picked him up Thursday and he spent the night, then Friday I ran home at lunch to bring him back up to work with me (had ...

MidSouthCon!

Friday I ended up staying home from work with an awful migraine that was making me sick to my stomach - I don't think the remnants of my head cold helped, either. Friday night I felt awful. So I was worried about Saturday! I had a friend's baby shower to go to in the morning, and Chase's birthday dinner that night, with MidSouthCon in between, so it was going to ...

Stuff I’m thinking about wearing to MidSouthCon

We're only going up on Saturday so I'm only wearing one (maybe 2, if it's easy to change in the car) costume... I'm thinking about: 1. Donna Noble - because I'm lazy and this is the easiest costume to wear. 2. Valkyrie - might be cold. 3. Emma Frost - might be cold. 4. Marie Antoinette - i want to wear it but probably too big to deal with. 5. Batgirl - because I want to ...

a few more MidSouthCon 2011 pics

Here's some pics I found from friends from this past weekend. (pic by Glenn) my hair looked great friday. too bad it didn't stay that way. I was really surprised by how many people knew who I was supposed to be - better than at Anaheim or Dragoncon, even. (At dcon people kept asking if I was a steampunk person.) (pics by Lin and Glenn) various Hippolyta pics. (pic by ...
