word vomit
Well this has been a shit 2 weeks since I last posted. On top of the obvious shit news, my uncle (Kevin’s dad), passed away Thursday after a short stint in the hospital. I still have not wrapped my head around the new reality of Daddy Bob being gone, much less this. It’s a lot. I got a new friend.…

dragoncon persists
Well I’m back from dragoncon. It was a weird time. Good? But weird. I felt off the entire time. I did a really bad job at taking pics of my costumes and I’m kicking myself for it now. I also had a ton of plans for videos and didn’t do any of it. It was like I only had a…

one day remains
Down to the wire here. The last week has been a roller coaster. I have a new boss. His style is totally spiking my anxiety. 2 meetings today in the midst of trying to get ready to be out of town. I do not think he understand my job/position in the company. I’m going to have to deal with this…

It’s now August and we are 3 weeks out. Geez normally we’d have 4 weeks at this point but Labor Day seems early this year. That freaks me out, I was feeling good about where I was but not anymore LOL So what’d I get done this week? I got my Shin gaiters done: Are they accurate? I don’t know,…

oh hi. It’s getting close to panic time for dragoncon. A while back Jess made a comment about my the Taylor Swift game mastermind in relation to my dragoncon line-up – so I had to do my dragoncon line up that way: Those 10 are pretty much confirmed. Left off the 2 unconfirmed for now. Here’s where we stand at…

lingering in the ocean blue
So for the past few months, Luna has decided her sleeping spot is my underbed storage container. It’s soft-sided thing from ikea and I keep like my swimsuits and tights and stuff I don’t need often in it, and I left it unzipped and she claimed it. She’s always gone through phases of where she sleeps, she’ll sleep in her…

Sorry for no Monday morning post yesterday. I’ve been dealing with a lot of anxiety the past week. Not much more I can say at the moment. Been trying to keep my nose to the grindstone and my mind on other things. So the good news is I’m officially done with SEWING on 3 out of 5 of my Dragoncon…
