Despite that title, I'm starting with art today just because I have a bunch to untangle from last week. Including a HOUSE INTRUDER, a LOT OF SEWING, some MOVIES, and DOG-SITTING! Since last post I've only focused on knocking out Clone Wars stuff. Here's what I kept calling "Loyalist Committee Lite" I totally just used the skirt embellishment from my own Loyalist Committee art, I did NOT feel like drawing ...
GUESS WHAT! My blog is 20 years old now. It's in college. My earliest blog posts were late 97/early 98 and the oldest post I was able to track down to reupload was from January 8, 1998. I think next week I will do a big post about it for its birthday! So anyway, this weekend was rather lazy. Mostly because it was SO cold. Like seriously it was in single digits?! It's never ...
Wow I didn't realize it had been so long since I last posted. Almost 2 weeks ago! So where to start... We saw TLJ again on 12/17 with Ash and Gabe. I wore my Hoth Leia vest and boots and wore my hair braided up. I was sitting on a bench in the lobby waiting on Chase and this little boy came up to me and said, "I love your outfit!" And ...
It's that time of the year again... time to see what I accomplished this year, what I didn't get to, and what I did instead of doing the things I said I was going to do. So last year I said my goals for 2017 were: 1. Georgian Belle – as I said above, finish it up for Visioncon. Did I?! Not really. I redid the wig, twice - once for Visioncon, and ...
Last bit of photoshoot! THAT WIG *_* I have the portfolio all updated, everything from Dragon Con is now finished. Yay! I have to go to Vegas for work next week. Boo. Then I'll be swinging into Halloween stuff!! Making a nun costume for a friend! And also helping out with the set for a Christmas play (shows are in mid-November). So it'll be busy. After Halloween my first projects will ...
So my high school reunion is coming up. Am I going? Anyway lots to talk about from this weekend!! Friday night Chase & I had tickets to go see Young Frankenstein at Elmwood Cemetery. Coolers were welcome so we packed up sandwiches and soup and camp chairs and headed down there. I thought it might be chilly at night by the time this rolled around by temps are still high ...
Uggggggggh I'm back at work today and feel like a zombie. Came back to a TON of stuff too so double Uggggggggh. BUT! It's time for this year's Dragon Con recap. So Chase had originally planned to be doing a scooter trip that weekend, so we were both going to be out of town - but Hurricane Harvey put a stop to his trip, so he stayed home all weekend. ...
Where's my Joey "I Wanna Go" gif? There it is. The past two years when we haven't been doing a "full" Dragon Con I've been totally fine with it up until it's upon me. I've been totally fine with not being there today. Up until today. Now I'm not ok! Especially since I'm sitting at work. 1.5 hours down, 6.5 left to go.... ugh. I don't know if it's really good or ...
Finished up a few things last night. Got it all packed up. Still working on Lucy's headdress -- but I think that's about it at this point. I've got to finish the handsewing on that and it's taking forever and making my fingers ache. Everything is packed except for that lower part of the headdress (that I'm still sewing on), and my regular clothes: I've got everything in this one ...
So this weekend was...strange. Thursday I had a hair appointment after work -- to get my Mon Mothma wig trimmed! This was the before. I didn't think to take an after. He cut a lot off to thin it out! Looks much better! And also my ribbon for the white medieval dress came in: So pretty! I got some more done on the dress that night, too, but it ...
