when i had to unpack
I found my embroidery sample, finally. Kes had gotten it, I think – it was under the ottoman. Today was fairly nice. I saw my grandparent’s new house, it was very cute! I really like it. I’m glad they’ve moved. I finally got my boxes back (they’ve been at my aunt’s house since they came back from FedEx) – I’m…

when i couldn’t tell if spiders
OOOOOOOOH! Now I remember what I was going to say! So this afternoon, I was working hard on stuff. I had been cutting and shaving foam rubber for a long time, and it was everywhere, and I felt yucky. So I went to take a shower. So I get in the shower, turn it on, and notice someTHINGS floating in…

HAHA, omg, I love elfwood sometimes. “I think that if you draw your bossoms it would make better art. i think that you are lovely and I do mean it” BOSSOMS!!!!! Not bosoms. BOSSOMS! HAHAHAHA!! Who the hell even uses the word bosom anymore, besides 90 year old ladies?! OMG I can’t breathe for laughing. I had a thought last…

when leia wasn’t such a good idea for work
I’m at my other aunt’s office right now, because my coworker called and said not to come in to work yet – THE BOARD is there. Eek. It wouldn’t have been a problem really – but, you see, I’m in full Princess Leia get up today. I doubt the State Board would find that funny. I’m in Leia today because…

when we did the big scoop
So what’s up with me, you ask? I did something to my foot last weekend. Every single one of my costumes had uncomfortable shoes (the worst being Hild, Phoenix, and Anna) and it was a LOT of walking. So my feet were still numb by the time I got back. Well my left foot is still bothering me. Mom thinks…

when our luggage got lost
Well, today already has a really long story. I will make it as short as possible. We get to the airport and check in. We board our flight. The airplane has a glitch. Everybody deplanes. I run back down to the ticket counter, where I stand for 20 minutes, but manage to get us a different flight, with a different…

when i didn’t want to be rude
So I’m part of this group, right? (It’s for a con next year… celebration-related) Well, I was asked to be one of the ‘main’ characters for the photoshoot. I thought this would be really cool. The group accepted doubles of all characters, and there were going to be other versions of the same character I was going as in our…

Experiments on Dyeing
So last year – probably nearly or even more than a year ago – I got this skirt and I wanted to dye it blue. I don’t even remember what it was for. I may have just been messing around. Who knows. Well, I tried it in the sink, but the fabric didn’t take to the dye very well. So…

omg, I just got a message from an italian foot fetishist who wants me take pics of my barefeet and send them to him! lmao!!! For anybody who has read The Princess Diaries I’m reminded of Lily’s stalker… remember, she wanted to devoted an entire episode of her public access show to modelling every one of her shoes, but never…

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…

when i was suspicious
Mom is putting together this little photo album with pics of all my costumes in it, so she can show them to people. God. I guess it’s kind of a neat idea… you know, when I’m old and grey I can pull that photo album out and think, “… gosh, I was SUCH a loser.” I find it fishy that…
