MTAC 2007 Pics!
So MTAC was pretty much ok. Like I said in my previous post, I wore Belle, then Utena — I need to fix the waistband on Belle, as I said last post. Also, it was too darn cold to wear the shoes I brought to wear with this!! LOL I opted for my tennis shoes instead! Link is ambushed by…

Hello from MTAC 2007!
Relaxing in the room here at MTAC for a moment. So far it’s been pretty good. My only complaint about the con itself was finding out “no weapons allowed” just as we got to the door of the dealer’s room – after standing in line for 30 minutes to get there. They said I could check my sword (my fragile…

MidsouthCon 2007 pics!
Friday, I did indeed wear Arwen, and got a few new pics. I went without the wig most of the time, only put it on for the pictures. I wore Susan first thing Saturday morning – it was quite interesting having to drive the 45 minutes to the con hotel while wearing this (I didn’t wear the wig while I…

Costume & Convention Plans
Weekend after next is St Patrick’s Day; we’re planning on going to Atlanta again for their big parade, with the 501st/RL. I’m – hopefully – wearing Queen Amidala, the parade dress. After the mixup last year I’m a little skittish about things falling through again. On top of that, a bunch of our local members have decided not to go.…

The Time my Granddad Went to an Anime Convention
When I went to Katsucon 2003 (my first year there), my grandparents went with me. Obviously my grandparents know nothing about anime, and I thought they might go sight-see or something on saturday, but they didn’t – they just kinda hung out, and, I think, had a relatively good time. Well, saturday afternoon rolls around, and I ask my granddad…

when the marriott kept pulling stunts
Even more fun with the marriott in san diego! Yesterday I discovered an additional $80 charge from the Marriott Gaslamp in San Diego on my debit card. This was charged on saturday, almost a week after I had checked out. We called today to see what the charge was for. I knew there was no damage to the room, we…

Well kids
Well folks – that’s it for San Diego. This year was no exception, and I’m tired of the stress involved with traveling out there. So that’s it, this was more than likely my last Comic Con. Besides the snafu with the hotel (which was the MARRIOTT GASLAMP for those wondering. I did get a call from the asst. manager after…

Pics from Comic Con 2006!
Here’s more pics! I didn’t take many today – we were busy! I was very excited last night to see Gentle Giant has a giant Animated Style Leia outside their booth!! So that was my first place I wanted to go this morning. I ended up being stuck there for nearly half an hour with people taking pics. It was…

when i made a bingo game
And, in other news, I have either lost a cap or a really big filling in one of my teeth. It doesn’t hurt at all, I noticed after dinner tonight, I realised when I ran my tongue over that last tooth in my mouth it felt… not right. Like the middle of my tooth is missing. I certainly haven’t swallowed…

Wonderfest 2006 Pics!
Well, I’m back from Wonderfest. Unfortunately I didn’t get to go to the Ren Faire as I woke up sick on Monday 🙁 But we decided to definitely go next year, and to go earlier in May when it’s cooler. Anyway here’s pics and new costume stuff: Chase and I drove up Friday night – it was an easy drive,…

a long overdue update
(EDIT: This was a catch-all collection of recent costume photos and events originally posted to my livejournal. Since I ported it over here, it may be a bit redundant.) As I said in the last quick post, sorry for disappearing the past couple of months! Besides the usual weekday work drudge, I’ve been out of town almost every weekend since…

when we flew over the grand canyon
So, San Diego report! Wednesday! We got up at 4AM, went over to Ash’s house and picked her up. We got to the airport a little before 5 and got checked in. Nothing was open so we just had to sit around. We ended up in like, the loser part of the airport I’d never been in before. So we’re…

Hallo from SDCC 2005! A few pics
Moooore San Diego updates!! There is still a TON of stuff (action figures, statues, displays, etc) I need to get pictures of – I’ll probably get most of them Saturday when I’m in Starfire, easier to move around in 🙂 This morning was the Rebel Legion breakfast/group photoshoot – pics from earlier today and last night are up now: Thursday…

Hi from San Diego
We’re in San Diego! Things got off to a bumpy start, with a 6AM flight out of Memphis with an angry ticket agent and a 30 minute delay due to a malfunction. We were freaking because we only had 50 minutes of overlay time in Minneapolis – but we made it there on time, made our San Diego flight and…

Hello from A-Kon
My rebel bird tattoo. It’s mostly healed. I’m really proud of myself for getting it done, I had wanted one for years and years but was always too scared. 🙂 A-kon is OK – I’m mostly here for my cousin, we’re just doing whatever he wants to do. So if anybody sees me, I’ll just be wandering… 😛
