when they left my window down
I needed to take my car in today – not for anything major, I just wanted an oil change and a check up. Kristie was also taking hers in, so around 11 we both went over to Gateway and dropped them off, and Cojo brought us back to the office. I love Gateway – I think they’re awesome, they’re really…

Wonder Woman progress
I’ve been busy the last couple of nights, so I haven’t really made much progress on anything. I plan on buckling down next week and getting at least the ceremonial base dress finished… like I said, need to re-do the top. I’m not worried about the sleeves, except for where they meet on the bodice, since I didn’t get that…

when chase had 70s hair
Chase gets to go play outside shooting rockets with my mum’s class today, while i’m stuck here at stinky work 🙁 I guess this is, somehow, kinda twisted payback for all the times he had to be at work while I lazed around at his apartment. haha. He got a haircut last night; 70s Han hair is gone! It’s back…

Officially Official
We signed the contract and made the deposit on the ceremony site and reception hall today, so the date is finally official! Chase and I are getting married April 26, 2008! 😀

Costume & Convention Plans
Weekend after next is St Patrick’s Day; we’re planning on going to Atlanta again for their big parade, with the 501st/RL. I’m – hopefully – wearing Queen Amidala, the parade dress. After the mixup last year I’m a little skittish about things falling through again. On top of that, a bunch of our local members have decided not to go.…

when i got leia unleashed
After freaking years of wanting the Slave Leia unleashed, for a non-ridiculous price, I finally caught one on ebay with a buy-it-now for $25. So I snapped that puppy up. (I think the reason no one had gotten it already, was because “Unleashed” was misspelled in the title, perhaps- it was listed as “Unleahed” LOL) Ahh but she’s beautiful, I…

when i mourned my lost toys
I’ve probably already written about this, but I don’t care! When I was a little kid, I had a whole collection of Star Wars toys. I loved them a lot, I had a knock-off Star Wars action figure case to keep them in, but when I wanted to take them somewhere, I would put them in this little brown and…

when i got annoyed at commission requests
Do people on myspace not know how to read? I get so many messages everyday with people asking stuff that is on my main page, right there. I don’t have THAT much text on my page. I have paragraph about me. I have a paragraph (in big bold type!) that I make my own costumes, and I do not sell…

Padme Photoshoots
Gosh! We took pics of Battle Padme and Lake Padme last night. The battle ones came out ok, not great, but the lake ones, the lighting was way off and I just couldn’t figure out why. On the way to work this morning I realised – we had left the light on behind the backdrop. It threw off all the…

when i had bad ebay deals
Bad Ebay Deals! I have had, as far as I can remember, 3 bad ebay deals, all involving costume stuff. The first was in probably 2001. I found a nice pair of red Mary Janes that would go good with my Asuka sundress I had recently (also) bought off ebay. This was in the days before I had paypal, so…

when the weekend was going to be busy
Last night was fun, though we weren’t out very long! We were home by 9. We finished watching Cinderella 3 and went to sleep. LOL. I was up at 2 getting a snack, though. Must have not filled up enough at Texas de Brasil! This weekend promises to be busy, Friday night, Chase is going to a concert with my…

when i got an xm radio
Chase got me not only two cute cards, but the monkey magnets from Target that I liked so much, a little Belle dressup doll, and a big model of the Millenium Falcon! (he’s going to put it together for me!) And my parents got me an XM radio. whoohoo!

when i needed a drug fix
Stupid Valentine’s Day Cards… I went several weeks ago and bought my Valentines Day Cards, so it’s not like I waited til the last minute and nothing was left… but I had the hardest time picking out a card for Chase. We were together this time last year, already, but I just gave him one of my Star Wars kiddie…

when i packed a lunch
I woke up this morning feeling rather icky. The slighty sore throat I’d had yesterday was 10x worse, and I was badly congested – my nose, my throat, and my ears! I got up and Chase had me gargle some salt water – which ended badly, but helped, and I found a sore throat lozenge in the medicine cabinet, and…

Make a Wish Troop & Padme Pics!
WOW!! The Make-a-Wish event in Clarksville yesterday was awesome! The event was supposed to be from 1-3, we ended up staying until 4 because there were SO many people there, still waiting in line to get pictures with us! I couldn’t believe how many people showed up — we raised almost $1400! I didn’t take many pictures, but here they…
