when we went to hofest
Back from horrorfest, and finally done house sitting so I got to home last night!! 🙂 Got a bunch of mail to go through, but I got sgc_cosplay’s AWESOME birthday gift – I’ll post pics of it in my LJ tonight when I get home. Here’s a couple of Ho’Fest pics until I get the rest up and can do…

ranting
Last year I was bombarded with requests about how I made my Anna Valerious costume – understandable, since the movie was still pretty new, but I was still flabbergasted by HOW MANY times I was asked, to the point I just ended up saving a form letter on my computer with the info, and then I’d just copy and paste.…

when the kids were too darn cute
I faltered a little bit today – we went in our princess costumes to visit a pre-kindergarten class (about 3 years old – all boys) and they were all so adorable. They were all wearing little hats that looked like dogs and it just killed me. I wanted to scoop them all up and bring them home with me! But…

Dressing a Galaxy
I got my Dressing a Galaxy today!!! It’s #809, signed by Trisha Biggar. And first off, it’s HUGE! I haven’t messed with a lot of it, because I want to show it off like it is now, all perfect and pretty. But I glanced through the book – AMAZING! I’m a little disappointed in the swatches I got. Some cool…

when i hated cossies
I really hate the word “Cossies” in place of costumes. It annoys me. I overlook it when people use it when talking to me, but everytime I run across it online it makes me want to shoot myself. Or someone else. (2016 EDIT: It’s 2016 and I still hate this word. Thankfully it seems to have died off.)

when i rebelled against new systems
We got a new shipping system at work. I hate it beyond words. Today I unhooked it and set our old one back up. 🙂 To think I used to hate this old system!

when a security guard got in my face
At Dragoncon, they have, in the past couple of years, had a ban on photography from like, 7-11 (or something like that) at night in the Hyatt. I completely understand their reasons for this (fire marshall – taking pics clogs up the paths too much, and there’s not much room over there). So I’m fine with the ban, I don’t…

when daisy came home
Today’s been a good birthday! 🙂 Nothing major. Most of my birthday stuff is this weekend. Had a small party at work today. But best part was I went with my aunt to help her pick out a new doggie at the Humane Society! She totally clicked with a 5yr old lab mix mutt named Scout. Black and tan, and…

when i got a tacky hat
So yesterday I met up with Mema and Daddy Bob for a quick little birthday thing. Kristie fixed cupcakes for me, since I’m getting my beloved Miss Muffin cake at work tomorrow, and another at home tomorrow night. The cupcakes were awesome – they had Spider-man cupcake paper thingies, and I got a Spider-man candle! I got some money, Hitchhiker’s…

when i got an inappropriate catalogue
OMG. I just got home from school and got the mail in… and this was this Playboy catalogue in the mail!! Addressed to me! It’s like a lingerie catalogue or something! I mean, ew! I have to take it to work tomorrow so we can all laugh at it.

when i got flying circus
Tomorrow is the day I finally get my birthday present from my grandma. She bought it for me like, months and months ago, so I’ve been waiting for this day for a while! Oh yes, it’s the Complete Monty Python’s Flying Circus Megaset. YAY. I also asked for the Firefly DVD set. I haven’t seen any of it, but as…

Upcoming
I had to do a fabric store run for class the other day, and while I was there noticed they had the patterns on sale. I picked up the Simplicity Padme Battle suit/Aayla Secura pattern, the Jedi pattern, and also the McCall’s Lavender Nightgown pattern – I might throw that together for MidSouthCon next year, I like the pattern 🙂…

when i had to unpack
I found my embroidery sample, finally. Kes had gotten it, I think – it was under the ottoman. Today was fairly nice. I saw my grandparent’s new house, it was very cute! I really like it. I’m glad they’ve moved. I finally got my boxes back (they’ve been at my aunt’s house since they came back from FedEx) – I’m…

when people were crazy
Someone just told me I look like Christina Aguilera (or however you spell it) again – that’s just weird. It’s a compliment and I take it as such, but still, um. I don’t look anything like her. At all.

when i was a freckle face
My freckles are like 10x worse this year. Like, I don’t mind them at all, but I don’t think of myself as a person with freckles. But then I looked in the mirror in the car and I was like WHOA MAN I AM A FRECKLE FACE!! I should take a pic of me outside of costume makeup to show…

when i got sick and well again in the space of an hour
So today I went to the Germantown Festival thing, and got totally sick. It happened so fast! I was just like, walking around with Indy, and suddenly got all dizzy and horrible feeling. I went back to the car and turned the AC on and slept for about an hour, then went back and rejoined my group and felt fine.…
