Photoshoot: Zatanna and Black Widow!
sorry I haven’t posted recently. Haven’t had much to talk about. Been sick off and on, some head cold. Missed seeing HP at midnight cause I still felt bad and Chase was still in the middle of it. Still haven’t seen it! 🙁 Went to the zoo saturday, first time we’ve made use of our zoo memberships 🙂 We took…

working on next year’s costume list
I’ve printed off pics of all the costumes I’d like to do next year, to try to narrow down the choices. I’ve got it down to 13, and I intend to pare it down to 10. So far I’ve got – (and yes I’m being secretive until I’ve decided for sure) Rogue #1 Rogue #2 Wonder Woman-based character Disney character…

colorforms
“Shrinkydinks” were just mentioned on my twitter – I had a few of those, but what I really loved were my Colorforms. I can’t find pics of the She-Ra or Rainbow Brite sets I had. Those were so awesome… but I found a pic of Smurfs set I had. Man… I know they’re still in my parent’s attic, but that’s…

Food I Don’t Like
1. Pizza I grew up in the “OMG PIZZA” crazy 80s when every kid wanted to eat pizza non-stop because of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I mean seriously, every class party or post-sporting event… pizza. Usually Pizza Hut. Even then I didn’t care all that much for it but I ate it because it was cool, because the Turtles…

come to the dark sides, what’s up with cookies
Am I the only person who doesn’t get the whole “Come to the dark side, we have cookies” thing? I mean the first two or three times I heard it, it was kinda cute. Not really worth repeating. But I hear people say it alllll the time, it’s on like 30 different shirts. Why? I just don’t get the why…

computers & movies
Yesterday I finally got some new RAM for my computer which needed it BADLY. I got to enjoy it for about an hour this morning – Chase let Windows do its updates (which I never let it) when he installed the RAM, and so I think it was still installing stuff while I was gone all day. I get home…

pattern frustration
First step to cleaning up my office is getting control of my massive pattern collection. I just don’t have room to keep them in the plastic bins they’re in, it’s taking up too much room – I need to find a more space-saving option. I could possibly fit a small file cabinet or similar under one of my desks –…

i hate tile
This is going to sound weird but I really hate tile. I mean like tile on the floor, like kitchen or bathroom floors. It just grosses me out for some reason. It goes back to when I was little, and I would stay with my grandparents every day while my parents were at work, and my grandma’s kitchen was this…

MCFC 2010 – Ms Marvel Pics
Friday night, my parents, Chase and I went to the Mercy Me concert. It was fun, and I actually won one of their CDs by checking in on Gowalla LOL That was awesome. Saturday I got up and got into Ms Marvel for the Memphis Comic and Fantasy Con. We got down there a little later than we wanted but…

Halloween 2010 at work
We had a Halloween party at work today, lots of yummy food and a costume contest and people dressed up. We had a black-eyed pea, a witch, a sort-of pirate, Julia Child (kevin), two fairies, an old lady, Foxy Brown, a vampire and an aerobics instructor. Here’s a few pics. First up, Kevin’s Julia Child costume. Wig is his Napoleon…

end of an era
So, last night, I used up the last of my aisle runner. This thing: Super cheap shiny fraying white satin. I don’t even remember how many yards I ended up with. It was a LOT. I never expected to get it back, for some reason I never thought of that – but when we got home from the honeymoon, there…

More GMX 2010 pics, and Briar Rose progress
So here’s my Ame-Comi Supergirl with the new wig: And here’s one of me and Kevin: It was freaking COLD in the hotel so I didn’t stay in it long. I was freezing to death! I put on Wonder Girl after that, and ended up wearing my hoodie over it most of the time. Here’s Wonder Girl: Me with the…

GMX 2010 pics!
I only have a few pics up so far, but here’s a few fun ones. Kevin as Superboy: I used that black Halloween hairspray stuff on his hair. It was nasty. I used up the whole bottle spraying his head, and it first it looked good, but after an hour or so it started to turn grey-ish blue. Then I…

GMX 2010 Plans, Wonder Woman art
Here’s the WW I did for our team’s Race for the Cure shirts. (EDIT: Unfortunately this picture appears to have been lost in my move from flickr to smugmug. Sorry ! 🙁 ) The shirt version is black and white, with a pink bodice, and pink ribbons on her gauntlets. So I finally packed for GMX – I got Jane,…

The poster said they’d gone through their dvds and managed to get enoug points to get it. I thought, I might be able to do that too – and I…
