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…

MCFC, ‘Tis the Season, a lost ID, lost power, and lost my mind
This weekend was nuts. But let’s ease into it with a picture of Luna. Friday was a normal Friday at work, just steadily busy, until around 2 it was like the world went mad and like 10 hectic problems developed at once. And I had to leave on time because I was on a tight schedule. I ended up leaving…

Anime Expo Memories
This weekend is Anime Expo!! And I’m not going so I don’t know why that warranted two exclamation points. We went to Anime Expo once, in 2003. The way Ash and I managed that was that we talked our parents into doing it as a family vacation. We flew out to LA on… Wednesday I think? And on Thursday we…

Dragoncon Thoughts
So yes, I’m doing DragonCon this year. A little more than last year but still not going up to the full week we used to do. Planning on driving in Friday morning and home Sunday night, staying in Cat’s room. Ash is probably going with me, Chase is staying home. So at the moment I’m thinking of taking: Bespin Leia…

Trip Photos – Round 2
So I wrote the whole trip report out yesterday but of course I only had iphone photos. Today I have our photopass and Chase’s pics uploaded! So here’s a few. Kevin hadn’t met Mr and Mrs Easter Bunny, and we were able to pretty much walk right up and get a photo with them the first day. Honestly I probably…

Home again
We’re home! And I’m sick with a sinus infection AGAIN. I think I’ve come home with a sinus infection from at least 4 of our Orlando trips in the last year. This one is a real bear, it came on Friday night so all day Saturday and Sunday my face HURT. But I’ll get to that later. Let’s start at…

Visioncon!!
Visioncon was awesome, I’m going to try to write everything down before I start forgetting stuff… though I’m sure I’ll still forget something anyhow! Thursday I got home from work and finished packing… It was really like a Dragoncon trip. Had my Dcon bin, 7 garment bags with 2-3 things in each of them, 3 wig boxes, makeup case, our…

I have never been to VisionCon and everything I’ve seen looks awesome and the con staff have been wonderful to work with already! I will have a booth in the exhibit hall…

Southern Fried Pics! (and Dolores)
I had a great 3 day weekend just chilling with my grandparents. Went up Thursday after work and we went to eat at Red Lobster… clam chowder yay! I got a decent amount of embroidery work done over the weekend. Still clocking behind where I want to be but I’m starting to feel more confident. Catty Bob was curious but…

MCFC Photos
Better late than never! Disney trip got me behind, just got these from Chase last night and uploaded. There’s not a ton. MCFC 2016 Gallery Mostly Donna photos. The last known photo of my phone *cries* It still hasn’t turned up — hasn’t been turned on or anything, which further reinforces my suspicion that it got kicked somewhere and is…

A weird weekend
This weekend did not go as planned. Friday we were going to go see Fantastic Beasts… but I was still feeling a little under the weather and wanted to save my energy for the con Saturday, so we stayed home. That night, I did finish the Phis and Gracyn that matches the other SunDowner character refs I did a few…

Brainfreeze: Me & Kev Me and Kev Part 2 Walking thru Hollywood Studios Oddly enough, this is now the 2nd photo we have of Kevin being menaced by a blow-up Stay Puft Marshmellow Man. This Guardian of the Galaxy group was one…

Southern Fried Pics
I was really looking forward to this past weekend; the con looked fun, I was excited to take Kevin, to spend the weekend with my grandparents, and best of all the weather was going to turn out great – it got up to nearly 70 degrees. Well I forgot what comes along with a change in the weather like that;…

MCFC – part 2
Saturday pictures! I wore the TARDIS in the morning: The angels have the phone box! Then I have a ton of costume contest pics up in the set! Unfortunately Chase didn’t manage to get every contestant, but there’s a good number. Dramatic judging: More judging: I love how I look more like Donna Noble when I’m not wearing my Donna…

GMX Pics: Part 2
Got the rest of my pics uploaded last night! A few pics of Sarah Sanderson from friday night: Time Lords visiting the Doctor… Kevin really was out of his element in this costume – the collar was uncomfortable for him, he had trouble walking in it – but he FELT really cool, haha. Peggy with a couple of Caps: I…

GMX 2014 – part 1

Dragoncon Stories: That Time I Was Abandoned
This is one of my all time favourite Dragoncon stories. Dragoncon 2003 was just me, Cath and Ash. We had a hell of a time that year. Monday rolled around, we packed up, had them pick up my costumes to ship them out, and checked out of our room – but, our f light didn’t leave for a few more…

Momocon Pics – Round 1
Here’s the pics from my camera and my phone, and a handful from Chase – haven’t gotten all of his uploaded yet. We had a fantastic time! It was definitely a different crowd than we’re used to at a convention, but Kevin was in Kevin Heaven. We were up before the sun on Friday and the trip in went really…
