    when i wanted to take yuffie pics

    I want to go out and take pictures of my Yuffie costume today – it’s really really nice out and perfect for taking pictures. I wanted to go into the field next door but someone is mowing it, so if we do take pics it’ll just be in the front yard. I just had a weird experience – I came…

Buuuuut best thing, I got my Arwen tiara!!! It’s soooooooooooooo pretty!!!! I wanted to wear it all day but our big boss is in town in our office…

    when i booked plane tickets

    I got my plane tickets for Katsucon last night. They are kinda sucky and were expensive, but they were the only ones with the times I wanted. Flying out of Memphis at 7:50 PM Thursday night, plane change in Atlanta, arrive in DC in what is technically Friday morning 😉 12:35! But otherwise mom would have had to leave school…

    when i read the pern novels

    Dad fixed the light in my closet last night, so I can finally clean it out. With no light in there for AGES it’s gotten to be a royal mess. I got started on it last night but didn’t finish. As a result my room looks like a bomb hit it. I just recently finished reading all of Anne McCaffrey’s…

    when i refused to sit in the back

    Oh! Things I forgot to mention. One of the jackets they were using in the play last night started to rip in the first act. It just kept getting bigger and bigger, straight down the back. They pinned it for the second act, and sent it home with us to repair it for today’s performance. I’ve been wearing it all…

    when i got $60

    When I was 6 or 7, I got $60 for my birthday. I’d never gotten much money for my birthday before, but for some reason that year a couple of people gave me money, and all together it came to exactly $60. I was so amazed, I’d never had so much money at one time before. Mom took me to…

    when i was artist of the day

    wtf? Why am I Side 7 artist of the day again? I was already it once I thought I couldn’t be again. That’s weird… and nice to wake up to 🙂 Dad got Photoshop 8, Illustrator… 11, I think, and a new Adobe program called… I think it was In Design? He’s been raving about it. I don’t think they…

    when i made a costume closet

    My little project yesterday was turning the old store room into my new costume closet! (missing photo) Yay! I have all kinds of space in my room now, it’s so great! I organized everything… all the things that could be hung are hanging on the new bar dad and I installed. All the accessories and things are in the 3…

    when i needed a con fix

    Saw Matrix 3 last night – it was ok. I guess my main problem was that I had been spoiled on the entire thing a couple of months ago. I need a convention fix! The only one anytime soon is numa rei no con in december and I still haven’t found anybody to go with me. I have a project…

    when i lost my cds

    Hmm. The past few months I have really ignored my blog, there’s so much that went on that I normally write about but just haven’t. The big thing I don’t think I ever write about was I lost over half of my CDs a couple of months ago (right before Dragoncon) – they were on the back of the car…

    when trinity said shucks

    Caught a bit of The Matrix on TBS or TNT one last night. Was amused by the station’s redubbing of “offensive” lines instead of just bleeping it out. Neo gets caught by agents; Trinity’s response is now “Shucks!” I mean, replying “shucks” doesn’t really convey the danger of the situation. Shucks is what you say when you drop a piece…
