    Wonderfest 2006 Pics!

    Well, I’m back from Wonderfest. Unfortunately I didn’t get to go to the Ren Faire as I woke up sick on Monday 🙁 But we decided to definitely go next year, and to go earlier in May when it’s cooler. Anyway here’s pics and new costume stuff: Chase and I drove up Friday night – it was an easy drive,…

    when my bandwidth was high

    I got an email this morning telling my bandwidth for the month was at 75%. It’s never that high! I dug through my referrers looking for someone somewhere direct linking, but couldn’t find anything major (btw, I hate the new referrer program my webhost uses – on forums, it doesn’t record the actual URL it came from, just the top…

    So I bought a new camera: EOS Digital Rebel XT SLR Digital Camera. It comes wednesday, I can’t wait!! Yesterday as I walked by my car I noticed my back tire was flat.

    sooooooo

    I know, I know, I’m so bad running off and hardly updating in ages. I copied some of my pics and convention posts from my livejournal and brought them over here. As I said there, I’ve basically been out of town every weekend since March – I haven’t been this busy in ages, and I don’t have a free weekend…

    a long overdue update

    (EDIT: This was a catch-all collection of recent costume photos and events originally posted to my livejournal. Since I ported it over here, it may be a bit redundant.) As I said in the last quick post, sorry for disappearing the past couple of months! Besides the usual weekday work drudge, I’ve been out of town almost every weekend since…

    woe is me

    Well I haven’t updated in a while, i’ve been busy constantly… it’s one thing after another lately! While I was going through the marathon of finishing the play poster for the school last week, I, in a fit of madness, bought a mannequin on ebay. I thought it would be nice to have one to store particular costumes on, like…

    Art Post: Beauty and the Beast

    This is the version with no text, outside of the title — the print version has the school name, dates, etc. Spring 2006 poster – if you’ll notice there was no Fall 2005 poster, due to me being too busy last semester to do one!! I straightened up and managed to get one out for this semester though. I’m not…

    when i looked up my birthday

    If you go to Wikipedia and look up your birthdate (minus the year)- it’ll give you a list of events and things that took place on that date. And I discovered one very important event that took place on my birthday: 1977 – TV character, Fonzie jumps a shark on water skis in an episode of Happy Days. That’s right.…
