when i got a gryffindor sweater
Why the heck do my pajama pants have pockets? What do I need pockets for while I’m sleeping… I got my new gryffindor sweater and it kicks butt. I wish it were cool out so I could wear it.

when i had no point
Ugh. I have been trying to get stuff ready for this thing I’m doing week after next… it’s time consuming and tiresome… on top of trying to get ready for Dragoncon. AUGH. Don’t even mention to me the fact that school starts back 2 days before Dragoncon. That’s not even on my radar, and it won’t be until September 7…

Lessa fabric
Back at easter when I was here at my grandmother’s, I found a bolt of brown vinyl that I wanted for my Lessa costume. I didn’t get it because I figured if they had it at Hancock in Jackson, they’d have it in Memphis too. Well they didn’t, nothing even close. So since I was up here in Jackson this…

when we did the big scoop
So what’s up with me, you ask? I did something to my foot last weekend. Every single one of my costumes had uncomfortable shoes (the worst being Hild, Phoenix, and Anna) and it was a LOT of walking. So my feet were still numb by the time I got back. Well my left foot is still bothering me. Mom thinks…

OK I finally updated the site from comic con. Some pics from Al: Lord of the BLING Middle Earth Cotillion Attack of primary colours!!

when we met carrie and dom
Ok, two of the reasons yesterday ruled. Reason 1: I met Carrie Fisher and got her autograph. And of course, reason 2: We met Dom (and the whole cast of Lost)… I got to stand right in front of him and I got his autograph and then I called Cath and squealed for 20 minutes. Ok now I really have…

Thoughts on SDCC
I’ve decided not to take Hild to Comic Con, cause the wig is just a pain to transport. So I’m thinking of replacing it with either my Padme Rainbow gown or my Gryffindor Quidditch uniform. I”m leaning more towards my Quidditch uniform, since I’ve never worn it anywhere and it would be something easy to wear at night when nothing…
