2 Days After: Something that helps you recover from DragonCon or from post-con depression
2 Days After: Something that helps you recover from DragonCon or from post-con depression Snuggling up on the couch, eating junk food, watching movies and just chilling. Something I usually haven’t been able to do for a few months without feeling guilty I’m not working on costumes. Also, looking at photos!

Dcon 2014: Emma costume
So last year I did all these little updates to Emma – mostly fixing the issue with the bottoms not reaching the corset, the cape closures. And then I didn’t wear it last year. I made sure to bring it back this year and got into it on Saturday afternoon. However, after all that, I only wore it for maaaaaaybe…

Dcon 2014: Donna Noble Costume
Starting out with some of my older costumes – less thoughts that way which is good cuz I don’t think my brain is fully functioning again yet. So, nothing really new with the costume except the wig. My hair’s gotten way to long for Donna as I mentioned before – so I got a wig late last year. A few…

Lucky Number 13
This year was weird. The bad: -First and foremost, Ash wasn’t there. It just made the weekend feel off. -The crowds were really heavy. To the point I wasn’t comfortable rewearing Marie Antoinette or Anne Boleyn as the weekend wore on. And it’s not so much the amount of people – it’s the lack of crowd control. Dragoncon could easily…

Final Dragoncon Line-up
Last schedule thoughts: Friday I will definitely be at the Vintage Vogue Fashion Show, so I’ll be over at the Hilton from 12:30-2:30. If I can manage I’ll try to wear Anne a little longer than that, otherwise I’ll probably be in her again Sunday. Saturday I’ll be at the USO Girls/WWII shoot at 12:30 as Peggy, and later that…

5 Days To Go: One of your best memories from DragonCon
5 Days To Go: One of your best memories from DragonCon I have a lot. Meeting Chase. Partying with the girls. Our skit in 2005. Costuming with my mom. But I’ve talked about all those things recently, so in the effort to not repeat myself too much, here’s a more recent fun story. In 2010, I think it was? Stan…

6 Days To Go: The guest you were most excited about from a previous year As I mentioned before I don’t get all that excited over guests — well, let me rephrase. I get really excited over guests, then do absolutely nothing about it at the con. Some guests I’ve been excited about in the past and actually made an…

I wanna go
Before every Dragoncon, before every Disney trip, I always feel like Joey in, “The One Where Ross Got High.” Yet I’ve never been able to find a gif of that so I could share my feelings with the internets. So today I made my own.

7 Days To Go: The coolest thing you ever bought at DragonCon
7 Days To Go: The coolest thing you ever bought at DragonCon Hmm. Over the years we’ve gotten to where we really don’t buy much anymore. We did get this Kingdom Come Wonder Woman statue I’ve always wanted a couple of years ago, now displayed next to my helmet: And, I don’t have a photo of them, but you know…
