Happy Birthday BLOG!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY WEBSITE/BLOG!!!! So I don’t know the exact date I started my website — I first started a site in 1997 on aol sometime in 1997. (I have notes saying it was January 1997 but I’m not sure how accurate that is!) Sadly I don’t have any of those old files or screenshots of that first version…

Happy New Year!
GUESS WHAT! My blog is 20 years old now. It’s in college. My earliest blog posts were late 97/early 98 and the oldest post I was able to track down to reupload was from January 8, 1998. I think next week I will do a big post about it for its birthday! So anyway, this weekend was rather lazy. Mostly…

Sims Pets and Star Wars stuff
Ok so Chase got me Sims 4: Pets for for Christmas! He surprised me with it early, and then since they were on for 50% on Origin, I went ahead and got Get to Work, too. So now I have all of the Sims 4 expansions. Fun. So I wanted to make a new family so I could make pets…

I have gazillion things to post
Wow I didn’t realize it had been so long since I last posted. Almost 2 weeks ago! So where to start… We saw TLJ again on 12/17 with Ash and Gabe. I wore my Hoth Leia vest and boots and wore my hair braided up. I was sitting on a bench in the lobby waiting on Chase and this little…

The Last Jedi
Site updates: Patreon Print Store is live. I been waffling about where to list all of my costume/art prints I’ve been saying I’m going to list for ages. And then it was finding the time to individually list them all. But then I realized, hey I need stuff for my new patreon. Let’s just make them all a patreon reward…

2017 Year in Review
It’s that time of the year again… time to see what I accomplished this year, what I didn’t get to, and what I did instead of doing the things I said I was going to do. So last year I said my goals for 2017 were: 1. Georgian Belle – as I said above, finish it up for Visioncon. Did…

Meow Lover (A Sims Story)
Those of you who don’t like stories about my stupid Sims games, abandon ship now! So I started my game with a young man named Meow Lover. Obviously Meow Lover loves cats – but he doesn’t have one because I don’t have the Pets expansion yet. Instead, he expresses his appreciation for cats through his job in social media –…

it’s the weekly monday post
Friday was busy!! So Wednesday last week I pulled out Belle to double check everything – it needed some roses replaced and some of the appliques sewn back on. And I needed to restyle the wig since I took it down for Dorothy. Then Friday I came straight home from work and started getting ready. I experimented a little bit…

a bunch of random non-costume stuff
I was digging through old hard drives yesterday looking for some old pics for a Christmas project and came across a bunch of random pics I’ve never uploaded for anything. So this is a post about that. If this isn’t interesting to you, sorry, it’s my blog I do what I want. My wedding dress! I took these to show…

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…

More Leia progress, and an ambulance
So yesterday morning was a little weird. I was on the ramp getting off the interstate on my way work, sitting in a line at the light waiting to turn left. I heard an ambulance siren…. look around try to see where it’s coming from. Turned out it was coming up the ramp behind me, but I was 2nd in…

Every weekend should be a 4 day weekend
What a nice weekend. We barely did anything. Thanksgiving day we got up and headed to family lunch. I curled my hair overnight and it looked cute for a couple of hours. It was pretty much deflated by the time we got home. After we got home and I had my own MST3K Turkey Day — Hercules Unchained, The Brain…

Leia progress, etc
My patreon finally has some content on it! Going forward I’ll be saving my instagram story breakdowns over there after they’ve expired on IG, and I have a slightly more “walk through” recap of my new Leia dress construction so far up over there, too. I plan on doing this with all of my costumes – more in-depth, step-by-step instruction…

MCFC, ‘Tis the Season, a lost ID, lost power, and lost my mind
This weekend was nuts. But let’s ease into it with a picture of Luna. Friday was a normal Friday at work, just steadily busy, until around 2 it was like the world went mad and like 10 hectic problems developed at once. And I had to leave on time because I was on a tight schedule. I ended up leaving…

Leia progress!
I felt kinda off-and-on weird all weekend, I’m chalking it up to upping my dose of one of my medications. One second I’d be freezing cold and then suddenly burning up and drenched in sweat. One second ready to go out and ride my bike for an hour and the next my head pounded/can’t keep my eyes open. Ugh! Very…

Anne pics!!
I got my Anne pics uploaded last night!! OMG I love them. I already talked about our trials just getting the photos so I won’t get into that again. Let’s just get to the pictures. Have I mentioned how cold it was? OMG it was so cold that day. I also mentioned in the post link above how I messed…

Finding Tobey, more pics
Another busy weekend!! Friday night we had the Indie Memphis red carpet event! So Thursday night I washed my hair and put it up in curlers. Got up the next morning and it was rainy and humid and I knew if I took them down before work, my curls would be GONE by that night. So I left my curlers…

Halloween, Part 2
Well this was probably the most disappointing Halloween in a long time. Since the only people who see me at my job are my coworker and my boss, and it was cold that day… I just wore Chase’s Spike kigu to work over regular clothes. Over the weekend I decided that for Halloween night, I’d wear my DCNU Wonder Woman…

Halloween weekend!!
IT’S HALLOWEEN YALL! We had a really fun weekend. Friday night started with cooking dinner and settling in on the couch to start watching Stranger Things 2. We got through 2 episodes that night. Saturday morning we slept in a bit, and then I started getting ready. (How to tell a photoshoot is happening at my house) We had very…
