ensconced in velvet
Mom gave me some purple velvet for Christmas to be used to make a cape. Buuut now I’m all tempted to make the Arwen Hope Dress with it instead. That’s my favourite dress from LOTR, I think… I love the colours. I’ll have to measure it and see how many yards I’ve got…

when i updated after new orleans
Ok sorry I haven’t posted lately but if you missed it there was a big long post in my livejournal about the trip, with photos and stuff and pics of my Arwen costume from ROTK opening. Got back from Mema’s last night – haven’t opened my gifts from my parents yet, I’m waiting on them to wake up š

Arwen pics!
I put Arwen on again to take some shots of it, since I didn’t get any at the premiere š I did have a fabulous time wearing it, but we got there so late that there was no time to take pics or show it off… oh well.

New Orleans!
Well let’s just jump right in shall we? Cath got to my house around 7:30 monday morning and we piled into my car and went over to pick up Mel. Then we picked up Josh and met up with Mel’s parents at a gas station, and Mel and Josh rode with her parents the first leg of the trip while…

when i made wedding plans
One of the headlines from USA Today: “Pavarotti marries in Italy amid celebrities, clowns” If I ever get married, I want USA Today to report on it with the headline: “Kell marries in Italy amid celebrities, monkeys”

when i didn’t watch SNL
For some reason, I really don’t like to watch actors or actresses from movies I like doing something like SNL or on some ET report or anything. I can’t explain it. I don’t even like to watch Behind the Scenes stuff, or interviews. It’s weird. Like I didn’t want to watch Elijah Wood on SNL so I skipped. I don’t…

when i hadn’t eaten in 48 hours
I just realised I haven’t had a meal in 48 hours – that’s probably why I feel like crap right now. Head hurts and everytime I finally fall asleep the phone rings…

when i wondered about johnny depp
Look out Paris – I turned in all my papers and paid for my passport today. Should arrive in about 4 weeks, the lady said. I actually kinda liked my passport photo – I had that “far away visionary look” in it. Heyyy… that reminds me… does anybody know exactly where in France Johnny Depp lives? Anyway, I got my…

when my super long post didn’t die
DUDE I thought for sure blogger would screw up that post and I’d lose it. I mean, it always screws up and loses my long posts, and that was like, the longest post in the HISTORY OF MY BLOG. You’re crazy if you read it all. I didn’t read it all and I WROTE IT!

I’m leaving for New orleans on monday and I’m nowhere near done with my dress. Tomorrow night when I get home I need to bust out some fabric paint…

when our ROTK plans changed again
Well, my plans have changed for ROTK! Our entire ROTK night has been flipped upside down, fixed, flipped again and barely patched together again. First, when it was announced Memphis was getting the Trilogy Tuesday, we called the theater that day to ask when tickets would go on sale. The person on the phone told us wrong (that they wouldn’t…

when i was a magnificent bastard
I have been called a magnificent bastard! One of my life goals is now fulfilled. Now I just need drive on the autobahn, sign that contract for the SunDowner movie, dive into a pile of money ala Scrooge McDuck, throw a TV out of a hotel window, and have a horde of flying monkeys. I had a bunch of other…

when i hated biters
Sometimes I think the people on cosplaylab just randomly chose a time on the “Amount of time spent on this costume” section. 40-60 hours on super simple costume? Wow OK! And while I’m ranting, this person on a board I occasionally post at started posting in this one thread, linking to the artwork of the arwen wedding dress I’m making…

Sketchblog: Graduating Harry
This is a back-dated post! In 2016 I went back through my old sketchbooks and “rescued” a lot of my old, lost artwork, and I’m slowly getting them re-added to my archives. I’m not sure if I was doing this as a graduation gift for someone, or just wanted to draw Harry and the gang graduating. (Of course now we…

when there was a jesus christ superstar miracle
Something really weird just happened. As you all know, I lost a LOT of CDs recently when my 200 disc CD wallet was left on the back of the car. So anyway, I’m reinstalling Photoshop on my aunt’s computer (because SOMEBODY deleted it). I borrowed Dad’s 5.5 disc from his office, a CD he doesn’t bring home, and that I…

when i made a christmas list
When I was a kid we would get this Wish Book every year, just in time for Christmas shopping. I forget who put the Wish Book out – Sears, I think – but it had a LOT of toys in it. And as soon as we got it, I would go get a pen, sit down, and circle everything in…
