i got the black lung, pop
No it’s not con crud. I’ve never really gotten con crud except that one time I came back from WSMI in Columbus sick in 2006. But the weather is changing and I’m still worn out from dragoncon so I feel like death warmed over. I slept a lot this weekend. Vague aches and pains in the back of my head/neck.…

dragoncon blues
HI! I’m home, and officially dead from dragoncon. So let’s backtrack to Thursday morning! I got up at 5:30AM and Ash was there to pick me up before the sun was even fully up. We drove thru Silent Hill. The drive was pretty uneventful. We got into Atlanta around 2. Getting the car unloaded and into the room was painless!…

Dragoncon Eve
Happy Dragoncon Eve! It’s happy because I FINISHED EVERYTHING LAST NIGHT. Well like 99.9% but still, everything major is DONE and if the stuff I plan on doing tonight doesn’t get done, it’s not a big deal. So my to-do list is: Run one errand after work Do laundry Trim that lacefront wig that’s arriving today (the base for the…

it’s your rare mid-week post
I don’t have my phone today. It has made me very aware of how many times a day I reach for my phone for no particular reason. Like literally every 10 minutes. It’s getting a new battery put in today. I wanted to just go ahead and buy a new phone, because it’s time, but Chase said some new phone…

a trip and a lot of beading
Hi everybody! So yeah, last week was bad. My heart hurts and doubly so for my parents. And I really don’t have a lot of sewing stuff to show you guys today. Because it’s just been a week of non-stop beading. Which gets repetitious to keep taking pictures of. But I do have a few things to talk about. Thursday,…

Kes
I guess I need to post here that we lost Kes on Monday. We are all devastated.

the beadings will continue until dragoncon
So let’s see, what have I done since last weekend? Oh that’s right, I sat on the couch and beaded every single day. Ok so first. I was telling Kristie that I didn’t like the bugle beads and was going to take them off that first test piece and redo them. She looked at my reference and was like, “uh…

weekend stuff
Sooooo this weekend. To be honest I don’t want to go into the shittiness of most of this weekend; but the one point relevant to my blog is that Kes is sick and we don’t know how long we have with her. It is tough. So that is all I am going to say about that. I’m going to focus…

in which i am homeless, and sad
First off OMG I had a migraine ALL last week, monday thru friday and friday I made myself sick taking way too much pain medicine (because I was out of migraine medicine). So that was fun. Especially while trying to get the house ready for moving this weekend!! But tuesday I was surprised with another package at work: Chase got…

a very moving weekend
Guess what! Chase and I are homeless. We closed on our house Friday. All done. The new owner takes possession a week from today, so we have until then to move out. It’s so strange feeling. Like I said, I’m a little sad. It’s been a great home. But before I get too far into all that, let’s go back…

bienvenidos a miami
Ugh my photos are all out of order in my smugmug folder. So I’m just going to post these by category instead of linearly. Thursday! We went to see the Frayser Bauhaus. This super cool house was built in 1948. It got turned into a doctor’s office for several years, and now it’s being restored to its former glory! They…

Two posts in a row?!
I knowwwww I just posted yesterday and normally I try to put more space between posts BUT yesterday was a big day. And it IS DragonCon season which means I’m working on a lot of stuff and multiple posts in a week should be expected & allowed. Ok let’s get the bad out of the way. Well I’m not going…

Finally some Amidala Progress
I don’t have a ton to post about today!! Mostly since I did a second post last week. We’ve had Kevin with us since Tuesday last week, so that’s been fun. I don’t know what this snapchat filter was supposed to be but it look like the Lunchlady’s yearbook picture. Friday Chase got off work early so as soon as…

Anime Blues Con, Part 2
(I know my header is super similar to the last post’s header but I don’t care I like both pics and it’s what I want to use!) First up — art update because I forgot it last time and I’m trying to get the art page updated… “Rise of Clovis” dress: And the Hazmat suit I said I wasn’t going…

Anime Blues Con Post – Part 1
HI! I have a lot to post today. It was a long weekend! And it all started Thursday night, Ash and I had tickets to go see Trixie Mattel! We went and had dinner first and then headed over; we had pretty darn good seats (like 7th row center I think?). It was miserably hot in the venue, the chairs…

ANNOYING
OMG since Wednesday our AC at work has been making this AWFUL noise. It hasn’t gone out (thank goodness, still nice and cool in here), but it is making this grinding, shuddering noise interspersed with LOUD BUZZING! And of course the unit on the roof is DIRECTLY above my office so all day long I get the brunt of it.…

YAY it’s done!
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…

well so much for that!
After my excitement about maybe going to Star Wars Celebration next year in my last post, today I have to let all of the air out of the room. Since then all the 5 day passes have sold out, as well as Saturday only. We were going to have to wait on tickets til we got Chase’s bonus at the…
