the serious moonlight

Ok so you know those mcdonald's halloween pails? The ones that they are saying might be back this year? I just saw a news story about the rumor and reminded me of this. A few years ago, my mom was cleaning out the entry way closet - they don't really use the front door/entry way so that closet tends to be a black hole. So she was cleaning out ...

its the dragoncon post

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 ...

and we’re back

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 ...

screaming crying throwing up

I just really want to GO ok. I'm tired of work. I'm tired of life. I just want to be in disney world and not have to worry about anything. Soooo what'd I do last week. First up, I finished off my Death Star Plans bag for my dapper day Leia look. The center gold piece is 3d painted in gold filament and then I carefully painted in the black ...

Dragoncon Part 2!

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 ...

back to fake life

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 ...

dragoncon is nigh

I've decided I'm officially considering this dragoncon #20. Actually I take that back. Going to wait and see how the weekend goes. if it sucks this is dragoncon #19. If it's great it's dragoncon #20 LOL. This year would've been #20 if they hadn't canceled last year -- but i DID participate in the virtual con last year so I feel like I could count it? If I wanted to? Just brain things. So ...

crying wont help you praying wont do you no good

oh hello. Can you even believe it's dragoncon week? I can't. My brain isn't registering it. Still not done with everything. Still chipping away. Well Padme is done. I got the 3d printed buttons glued onto bases, painted and attached. Here they are before any of that. And I finally finished up the wig. Although once I finished it, I put it on real quick and realized the whole bun/...
