    what’s going on??

    I successfully navigated my birthday weekend without getting a single “happy birthday” on social media LOL. I didn’t set out to do that, but the night before my birthday I was like… y’know what, I’m going to hide my birthday on facebook. It’s not that I don’t appreciate people saying happy birthday there – it’s just a little overwhelming and…

    Oh hi, I don’t have a lot to talk about this week, except that it was my birthday. Nana brought me balloons!! Chase got me the folklore vinyl and the Pat McGrath Taylor Made Lip kit (I used it friday night, it’s sooo nice, it might actually be the catalyst for me to finalllly throw away my ancient tube of…

    Sorry I’m a day late! Chase just sent me the pics he took of my Valkyrie costume Saturday last night so I wanted to wait til i had those to post. But before i get to Valkyrie let’s rewind to last week! First up look at all this fabric I donated! I was able to give all of this to…

    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…

    its my birthday too

    I think I’m going to have to change my weekly post date. Mondays have become too hectic. I like to post Mondays because the most stuff happens over the weekend, so I remember most everything. But I think I’m going to have to start looking at Tuesday or something. But I’m here to try to get a quick post out…

    itsa my birthday too

    Hi Hello I actually have content to post this week! I worked overtime last week so I could be off on my birthday. I slept in, got up and finished cleaning the house, went to lunch with my parents, took a nap, went and got Kevin and by then it was party time. Obviously my birthday party theme was Raid…

    Medieval Leia, birthday stuff

    So Friday night we threw up the smaller backdrop and quickly reshot Medieval Leia and TFA Leia. They turned out MUCH MUCH better. No more harsh shadows from the buns across my face and TFA dress isn’t blown out. I got medieval Leia pics back and uploaded yesterday. So I’ll have her portfolio page updated sometime soon. I’m hoping to…

    8 miles outta memphis and I got no spare

    I have more photoshoot pictures!! Unfortunately some of them did not turn out. TFA Leia’s pics not turning out is my fault – because of the wrinkles I didn’t think to iron out. So we are going to reshoot that one. Then, the lights on medieval Leia were weird and made the whole thing look super weird, so while we’re…

    A quick birthday post

    I haven’t posted since Monday even though my birthday was Tuesday and I usually always post then! I’ll get to the reason why in a sec. Monday night Chase made my fav cheese fondue!! We watched the new Beatles doc on hulu. And I finished cleaning my office: Tuesday was my actual birthday and I went to lunch with parents…

    Closet Fix

    In going back through my recent posts last week to add tags, I realized I use “ugh monday” or “it’s monday again” or something similar as my post title A LOT so I decided I will not ever mention monday in my post titles again. Anyway, I we skipped out on Delta Fan Fest Saturday. I really wanted to go…

    Oh hi blog

    Sorry I haven’t posted in a while! Been busy… my birthday and then Las Vegas! Let me go back through my phone photos and see what I’ve missed. I got some very important fabric and a very important pattern (no clue what I’m doing with any of this, I just got it all for the stash.) And then I had…

    Apologies

    Sorry I haven’t posted much lately. There’s not really a lot to talk about. It’s the normal post-Dragoncon lull. Besides that work has been stressful so I’ve been spending a lot of time just trying to relax and falling asleep early every night. My sewing room is a disaster. Even though I put all my Dragoncon costumes away the weekend…

    Birthday Stuff and Dcon 2012 Pics

    I had a really great birthday! 🙂 Chase got me this amazing Haunted Mansion sign: I’ve already put it up in the hallway and am now planning to turn the whole hallway into a Disney hallway LOL Speaking of which, Chase and I booked out Disneyworld anniversary trip last week. We won’t be able to go on our actual anniversary,…

    birthday stuff!

    I haven’t posted about my birthday – I’m a little behind, my birthday was two weeks ago, LOL. But it was a fun one. Woke up that morning to Chase having decorated the living room, and with my presents on the coffee table…. He got me an Adipose, which was like the one thing I asked for, Disney Beauty &…

    last bit of birthday

    Had the gang over for my birthday last night. We watched the rifftrax of New Moon, and let me say our new(er) Bluray player is MUCH better at pausing and starting than our old cheapie dvd player! Chase made cheese fondue for dinner and chocolate for dessert, the chocolate one was the best chocolate he’s ever made, it was soo…

    you say its my birthday?

    yeah so its my birthday today. This weekend were were in Nashville – Chase had a photoshoot all day Saturday, so I hung out in our hotel room (which was sweet! really nice) and finished up dragoncon pictures (or at least what chase had sent me). When he got done we got dressed and went to downtown Nashville to eat…

    SO… my awesome birthday

    So on Sunday I turned “old” and yesterday I bought a house. it’s been a two month debacle but yep… we closed yesterday, picking up the keys this afternoon. My birthday was awesome, I just have to say. It was a “big” one in terms of numbers, and Chase did an awesome job planning it, I was really actually surprised…

    when i had a migrainey birthday

    Yesterday was pretty good. For my birthday Chase gave me the Galactic Heroes Endor Han and ewok set, plus the jacket we’d seen at the mall a few weeks ago! I wore it to work yesterday, because usually I’m freezing at work, but for some reason it was warm in the office yesterday so I didn’t get to wear it…
