i hate tile
This is going to sound weird but I really hate tile. I mean like tile on the floor, like kitchen or bathroom floors. It just grosses me out for some reason. It goes back to when I was little, and I would stay with my grandparents every day while my parents were at work, and my grandma’s kitchen was this…

Wonder Girl progress; wedding pic
Went to Lauren & Jeremy’s wedding, it was really cool. Their reception was a the Old Daisy and it was masquerade themed. Here’s a pic of me and Chase, courtesy Ash: As you can see I wore my Marvel Girl mask and Chase somehow wore my Huntress mask. Didn’t think it would fit anyone else but me LOL. Sunday I…

leave me alone, im building a tent
A few years ago, I pulled my parent’s little tv out of the kitchen, took it in the dining room and built a little tent around it, using the chairs and multiple blankets. I took my PS2 and some video games and dvds in there, made a little bed of extra blankets and pillows, and basically camped out there for…

Haven’t attached the collar piece yet, it’s just pinned on. once i have them all made they get thrown in the dye. So anyway, yesterday I had my…

sex with what?
So I’m filling out my medical history for my doctor’s appointment today, and I get to this: Do you smoke? _______ Do you consume alcohol? __________ Do you do illegal drugs? ___________ Do you have sex with men? __________ Wait, what? I’ve seen the “do you have sex” one before, but… so specific? But wait it gets better, because after…

Shopping and whatnot
I feel like I accomplished nothing this weekend. I made a decision about one of my costumes – it’s still happening, I’m just having to cut back on fabric and do it a different way, which makes me sad but if I want it to happen, thats what I have to do. So I’ve felt frustrated about that all weekend.…

a note
dear basement dwellers, I realise there’s no way to keep you from taking picture of girls’ butts at conventions. I personally really don’t care. But, for the love of God, why do you upload them to flickr and photobucket, etc? Just keep those pics to yourselves. I really don’t want to come across 20+ pics of BUTTS when looking at…

got nothing done today
I got nothing done yesterday. Went to church, went to lunch, was tired so I took a nap… I got up and did a little hand-sewing, but then decided I wanted to do that particular piece a different way so I ripped it all off. Then I played Lego Harry Potter with Kevin, we went to eat dinner, came home…

happy father’s day!
Haven’t gotten to see my dad today – going out for dinner tonight. 🙂 Yesterday I spent the first part of the day taking apart my ceremonial Leia costume so I could remake the sleeves and line the top. I’ve been wanting to do that since I first finished it in 2007! I had some chiffon hanging around that was…

the past two days have been weird.
Sorry guys, no art post today. Haven’t had time! But I would like to post about yesterday and today. They’ve been interesting. I’m going to cut it up into segments. 1. So yesterday morning, Nana tells me they found a snake in the garage. She touched it, thinking it was a bungee cord, before she realised it was a giant…

Bruises, Randomness, Art
Things have been busy. My great-great aunt Louise died earlier this week. She was 95. Her husband, my great-great uncle died in 1964 so I never knew him. The graveside service was interesting. It was pouring rain and we were huddled under a leaking tent, but the minister who spoke was straight out of a movie, an old-fashioned country minister,…

Helping Out
Copied from Chase: Our friends Ryan and Spaz had the 1st floor of their home wiped out during the Nashville flood this weekend. Ryan is ok as he was out of town over the weekend when the downpour came, but he was only able to get to his house today (Monday) to assess the damage. He had 5 feet or…

365 Project – Tatooine Padme + Copycats??

The only thing not finished is my mask, and it can ride in the suitcase if it’s not done in time for me to send in the box tomorrow. Tonight is packing & cleaning and tomorrow night is more cleaning – we’ve got to get…

exhausted
I didn’t post yesterday at all! I was just exhausted yesterday, mentally and physically. It was a push to get myself to sew last night… I feel like I’m beating my head against the wall with these costumes and it’s just so tiring and depressing. so here’s a sketch… I have no idea. I know I drew it in the…
