its a bittersweet symphony
I don’t have a ton to post about this week! Didn’t do much last week other than go to work. Saw Endgame again Wednesday afternoon. I had a migraine Tues-Thurs so it was a struggle to make myself go sew or do anything. I did get the yoke for Jedi Leia version 2 assembled. Here’s the outer grey piece and…

Leia debut/updates, art, the usual
FIRST AND FOREMOST…… Chase and I took the last big load of my costume stuff out to my parents last Monday night. And… I GOT IT ALL IN THE CLOSET Guysssss… that is like 80% of my costumes all shoved into one closet. I mean I can’t GET to anything, but i can’t believe I got it all in there.…

Sci-Fi Night, Leia progress, etc
It’s the usual post-weekend Monday update. First up! Saturday night we went to Sci-Fi night with the Riverkings. When they say “take a silly picture” I never know what to do LOL It was fun, Chase wants to go to another game just to sit and watch. Which brings me to Leia updates…. This was probably the second-to-last troop for…

Happy Monday!
Hey I have apparently never called a post “Happy Monday” before, so I got that going for me, which is nice. Started off the weekend with a bang when I broke a crown eating lunch on friday. I’ve already had so much dental work this year and so much more to come that it’s just like, piling on. At least…

Yeah, go to Jackson, go comb your hair
Spent the weekend in Jackson! Had a great time. Friday night we just picked up dinner and ate at my grandparent’s which worked out great because I was able to watch RuPaul’s Drag Race (I thought I’d have to wait til I got home Sunday). Played some battlefront with Chase, he hated it. But at least he played. Saturday we…

Pink Palace event
Yesterday we did a little event at the Pink Palace! One of my fav places in the world. Since it was earlier in the day, Chase couldn’t get off in time for it so mom drove us over. (After New Year’s Eve I refuse to drive in costume unless I absolutely have to LOL) Since it was a Deep Space…

Happy New Year!
Back at work and with my first migraine of 2017… UGH. In fact it was so bad that I typed that first sentence… sat here and stared at it, then just closed the window and saved it as a draft. Couldn’t wrap my head around actually typing out everything it was so bad. Went home for lunch, took some more…

Glinda, and Frozen
Part One: Glinda I finished up the Glinda bodice Saturday! Friday night I had a near panic attack over the ribbons, because as I got to the end I realized I was running shorter than I expected. As I got to the last segment I was two strips short. But, I had 6 stripes on the left side of the…

Bricks and Minifigs Event
Got Chase’s pics from Saturday uploaded! Sometimes when I know I’m in the background of a photo Chase is taking I just stare at him. Trying to convince a little boy which Star Wars Lego he should get… I was pushing for Leia… the stormtroopers were pushing for more stormtroopers.

Memphis Redbirds Star Wars Night!
I haven’t gotten to troop this event since 2010, because they usually hold it right before Dragon Con when I’m sequestered to my sewing room. This year it was in May so I finally got to participate again! Leia problems: I can’t get my sunglasses all the way on with the buns. They usually get stuck at some point so…

More Edith progress + Jackson Generals pics
Had a fun and busy weekend. We went up to Jackson Friday night to stay with my grandparents, had dinner at Cracker Barrel and drove Mema crazy with Snapchat. Catty Bob Saturday morning we did a bit of shopping. I got some fabric. Then it was time to head over to the ballpark for Star Wars night. The weather cleared…

Battlefront 3 Midnight Release
So last night we trooped the midnight release of Battlefront 3 at Best Buy! Chase had play practice so I thought I was on my own… until Kevin ended up staying with us last night. Yay! I was going to put him in Luke, but he arrived at my house with a big fuzzy beard. So I pulled the jedi…

FCBD and May the Fourth
This past weekend we went up to Jackson for two events! Free Comic Book Day at Books-a-Million, and Star Wars Night with the Jackson Generals. We stayed friday through sunday with my grandparents, which is always fun. I was hoping they’d get to come out and see us at the baseball game but unfortunately the rain kept them home! Anyway,…

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…

WSMI Huntsville Pics!
Only a month late 🙂 I posted our pics from the opening weekend of the Huntsville Star Wars WSMI exhibit last night. From that I was able to get a few new pics of my ceremonial dress: It’s still not the way I want it; maybe one day eventually they’ll be a version 3, who knows. Anyway, my Donna Troy…

WSMI Huntsville 2010 Recap
It’s been over a week since I last posted!! Been busy. Working on getting stuff ready for Huntsville this past weekend! Huntsville was half awesome and half sucky. The sucky: My mom fell in the driveway before we left and sprained her wrist, my dad got some kind of bug bite on his arm that got continually worse throughout the…

365 Project – Padme Cut Senate + More Redbirds Pics
today’s princess is… Padme. Shocker, I know. I got Chase’s pics from the Redbirds game, and I also nicked a couple that the Redbirds team sent to us. Here’s my fav from the Redbirds: And Chase’s… We just look like we’re having a nice conversation LOL Vader throwing the opening pitch, and me walking out onto the field…. I just…
