MidSouthCon 2011 wrap-up!
MidSouthCon kicked my butt! But it was a great weekend. Didn’t get a lot of pics. Most of the pics we took were Chase’s he took in his photo booth, so I can’t post those. But I’ll post what I have. Friday I’m glad I had the day off, because I ended up having a lot to finish up at…

ECCC 2011 pics!
Got our pics uploaded last night. Here’s a few favs. Undercover ms Marvel My Enchantress costume: I already wrote about it on my costume site, so I’ll just leave it at just pics here 🙂 Balloon Belle… and Mulder and Scully, excellent. Calvin about to get pounced by Hobbes, very cute… and Little Hellboy! There were a lot of cute…

MidSouthCon 2011 Plans
With Seattle behind me, I’m planning for MidSouthCon at the end of the month now. I’ve been steady working on my new costume for it – I feel like I’m right on track to get it done in time. I’m pretty excited about it. Chase is doing quite a bit of it for me, and I’m excited to see the…

Seattle trip, ECCC
We’re home! We really had a great trip. I got to see where Chase lived and went to school when he was in Seattle, see his friends who still live there, and the con was a lot of fun. I don’t have any pics from the “real” camera yet, but I’ll post a few from my camera phone. We got…

Tilt Shift video of the Dragoncon 2010 parade
I just deleted my livejournal. Anyway – post-dragoncon… I’ve updated my site with all the new stuff. Here’s my flickr gallery – I still have more to add once Chase sends them to me. And here’s our video of the parade. It’s a time lapse tilt shift video, I think it’s pretty neat. In other news, working on Briar Rose…

MTAC 2010, Trooping, Photoshoots… etc!
(This post may seem a little repetitive – this was ported over from my livejournal and recapped a lot of stuff I’d recently posted on my blog. Now that my LJ posts are part of my blog, it’s very redundant!) A recap of recent costume-y stuff… MTAC came and went and we got stranded there an extra day because of…

House updates, Anaheim Comic Con pics!
I forgot to post pics of our (almost) finished kitchen! The cabinets are done and they’re up! I’ll get a better pic with a real camera soon. I’m really happy with it. Now to hang stuff on the other end of the kitchen and our curtains and it’s done. Also, I cleaned up the prop room… Still a little messy…

MidSouthCon 2010 pics
Our pics are here. There’s not a lot – I spent most of my time at the con either in the dealer’s room or in panels 🙂 I got my helmet for my Jane costume today, too. It’s a little too big, but it’ll do for now.

Why I don’t go to Comic Con
today is Mulan dressed up as Megara. This one is not my fav, it was hard to get the colours of Mulan’s main dress to work for Meg’s dress. So I’ve watched friends & folks struggle with hotel rooms for San Diego Comic Con this past couple of days. WOW. I’m so glad I wasn’t trying to get a room…

Random Leia pic & Insanity
I finally found one pic of Hoth Leia from Friday night at MidSouthCon, from laspector: Goodness my hair was everywhere. But anyway, today was day 4 of insanity. Cardio Recovery. The stretches were hard and I have trouble with balancing but the recovery is so much easier. Can’t wait til tomorrow! 🙂

MidSouthCon 2010 pics!
As I said there weren’t very many – but what Chase did take is here. I’m hoping to find a few pics of me as Hoth Leia from friday night to add to that set. Here’s a few of interest… A neat flying pirate ship, and me as Snow White… One of the panels. And a bunch of Wonder Woman…

MidSouthCon
I don’t have pics from Chase yet. He didn’t take a lot but I’ll post what I have on flickr later. For now all I have is this: Yesterday we both got off work a few minutes early, came home, and got into Hoth Leia. We headed to the con and got our badges, then ran back out and had…

MidSouthCon 2010 Schedule!
MidSouthCon starts tomorrow. It really snuck up on me and I’m not in a convention-frame of mind. I think it’s because it’s about 2 weeks earlier than usual this year! Anyway, here’s my schedule. Friday – 11:00 PM – Donning The Tights I had a panel friday at 5, but our regional manager is in town and I just can’t…

Giselle art, and MidSouthcon schedules
today’s princess is Giselle. I skipped this dress initially because I didn’t care for it in the movie, but for completeness’ sake, here it is. I tried all the pieces of my new costumes on last night (all i’ve gotten done, anyway), and was pleased. I intend to sew like crazy this weekend and have the bulk of it done…

C5, Photoshoots, Convention planning
I know a lot of people are excited and I don’t want to bring anyone down! So you can just skip this segment if you don’t want to hear non-excited talk about C5 LOL. I am very disappointed that C5 is going to be 2 weeks before Dragoncon. Just about any other time of the year and we would have…

GMX 2009 Pics
GMX was this past weekend, it was fun! I really liked the hotel – we could stand outside our 3rd floor room and look over into the main part of the convention/people watch. And the employees were really nice 🙂 It was pretty laid back for us. Chase & Derek sat up a photo booth, I spent my time “helping”……

Dragoncon 2009 Recap
I figured I’d better go ahead and make a decent post about the weekend before I start to forget LOL Thursday morning we managed to get out of town on time, even after going to Starbucks! Yay. Check-in at the hotel was crowded, it gets more crowded every year, more people tend to come in early these days, I guess.…

back home! a few dcon 09 pics
We got back home around 2 this afternoon. Uneventful trip home 🙂 I’ll post a longer report later once I’ve had time to wrap my head around everything. Chase has promised to download the pics tomorrow so I’ll be able to start uploading hopefully tomorrow night. In the meantime, here’s a handful of pics from my Iphone from over the…

hello from florida…
…and I’m going home to snow. It hasn’t snowed in Memphis all year (except for a light dusting that lasted less than a day in Jan), and now that I’m leaving Florida, what does it do? 6 inches! Yuck! Anyway. Confession time: we hardly spent any time at the convention. Friday we left around the time we planned to go…
