the endless expanse
this is my least favourite time of year because there is basically nothing to look forward to. We don’t even have any work holidays until Memorial Day in MARCH. They don’t even give us Good Friday off for Easter bruh. It’s just an endless sea of work ahead of me. We did finish booking our Disney trip, finally. So all…

hey 2022
Somebody pointed out that you can sing “2022” to the beginning bit of the Scooby Doo theme song and that’s all I can think of. Not really a lot to share today because I spent most of the long weekend putting up christmas (or, taking it upstairs at least), cleaning the house, my sewing room, etc. Thursday night we did…

this is why i don’t skip posting weekly
I really can’t remember what all has happened since I last posted, it’s all too much. Christmas was nice. I’m just going to kinda go through my photos in the order they’re in and talk about them. First up here is my favourite gift bag. I almost gave it away this year but kept it again. I just like taking…

2021 Wrap-Up
omg hi I haven’t posted this week. I was trying to wait til I had all the new photoshoot pics uploaded, and now that I’ve got them I’m like… augh I haven’t done my wrap-up post for this year! So I’m doing this first instead of a regular post and I’ll do a post about Christmas next. So at the…

go away sun
The good: I have seen Spider-man and it was glorious. I was already somewhat spoiled (by choice. I was digging through marvel subreddits for months sniffing out details) but it was so much more than I thought it was going to be and very emotional. Loved it. Definitely best Spider-man. The bad: today is my uncle’s funeral. 🙁 The good:…

it’s beginning to look a lot like f this
Yeah I didn’t post last week. Monday I was just really busy and was like, I’ll do it Tuesday. Then I was still busy Tuesday so I thought I’ll do it Wednesday. Then Wednesday morning my uncle Mike was shot during a carjacking. I think one of my cousins had the most accurate response to being told – “Out of…

anything goes
Well I can’t log-in to my site from chrome. It keeps giving me some cookie error which is apparently a common error but looking at the fixes on some website I found just makes my brain go fuzzy. So we’re working from firefox today. Let’s see, the first photo in my uploads today is an Utena pic so we’ll start…

i am thankful for short work weeks
Oh hi here I am back again with absolutely no Utena updates. My red fabric is supposed to arrive today finally. Then I have to get my brain back up to speed on the project. I know it’s only been like 2 weeks I haven’t done anything on it but that’s long enough for me to forget where I was…

it’s a very monday monday
Actually it was a very-Monday Sunday too. But work has been vicious today and I’m already over it. Luna did not make this mess. I did, she only sat in the middle of it. I’m a bit stuck on Utena at the moment. Got nothing done this weekend except I cut out the sleeves and collar. I spent about 3…

hello strange person
So here’s a fun fact about facebook for you. I’ve been trying to “lessen” my facebook footprint for a while, deleting photos, removing anything personal, and the other day I decided to start removing pages I’ve liked, especially since I “liked” a ton of random cosplay pages back in the day when doing “like for like” things with people in…

this is halloween
Whoo! It’s been a busy few days! First up, we finished the new tombstones! Gravestones? Headstones. What is the best term. I like Tombstones best. And we got some lights for night time. Thursday was the Pink Palace event. After work I decided I had time to take a quick nap before I got ready. Took my nap, went to…

no time off for good behavior
October has really gotten away from me. Here it is less than a week from halloween and I still haven’t even finished decorating. We have made good progress on the tombstones for the yard though. Here’s one with the text dremeled out: And painted up: Chase glued the stands on this morning, so they should hopefully be ready to go…

now dont close your eyes and dont try to hide
Fall is finally here, I’m bundled up in the baja sweater I got in arkansas, sweatpants, house shoes and a big blanket today. It’s a bone-chilling 57 degrees out right now LOL. Speaking of the baja sweater, I have realized I am slowly falling back into my 1995 fashion of over-sized XL fandom tshirts, hoodies and baja sweaters. If I…

may the odds be ever in your favor
It’s an extra post this week because i’m still riding the adrenaline high of the Marriott Hunger Games this morning. I was successful and got our room through a lot of shaking and heart pounding (WHY IS “ORGANIZATION” A REQUIRED FIELD?). Only thing I’m concerned with is that I used a card I usually only use in emergencies – decided…

post-vacation ennui
We’re home after an amazing long weekend getaway with the family. Wednesday night I finished up packing – was told to bring our D&D stuff, so I needed an extra bag for it – what better than the bag my parents used for the D&D stuff in the 80s? Then thursday morning it was off to Hot Springs! We headed…

what year is it??
I think I mentioned last week we’d been having internet issues? I can’t remember. Was having issues UPLOADING mostly, downloading was fine but — for instance on friday? It took TWO HOURS to upload a tiktok video. Geez. We’d have occasional internet blips too, wi-fi would stop working for a few seconds, maybe a minute, and then come back. We…

treat yo’self
The days are changing – the sunlight in my work office in the morning is absolutely killing me. It’s reflecting off the glass of my desk and directly into my eyes. I’ve had to pull up the ends of the curtains to lay across the glass to block it. And this is why, last week, I built a blanket fort…

life, the universe, and everything
HI it’s my birthday!!!! Already getting off to a “FUN” start, work has been completely insane the last week and continues to be so. But today is a birthday I’ve been waiting for. For years, decades even, I have wanted to do a Hitchhiker’s Guide themed birthday for my 42nd birthday. Well obviously because of the state of the world…

Dragoncon Part 2!
Ok I was hoping to have this post up last week, but Chase had a lot of trouble exporting the photos and I was only getting them in chunks. I think I’ve got all of them now, or at least, most of them. Might be a few more stragglers. Besides uploading pics, last week was absolutely crazy at work, and…

back to fake life
I started to title this “back to real life” but I realized doing something normal like going to Dragon Con is real life. Going back to the day-to-day of the last year is the fake life. So — Dragon Con was actually pretty great. I had my reservations, as you may have noticed in the last post. But the low…
