    Old pics, part 1

    I’ve been uploading some old costume pics from my external hard drive, just as a back-up, mostly. Some of them I haven’t seen in YEARS. Heres a handful of ones I found funny or interesting; I’ll just post a few now and some more later. This one cracks me UP because Kevin is passed out asleep behind me. This was…

    when i won

    AHHHHHHHH I’m back. I’m tired. Not much to say right now, except I won Best Craftsmanship for Ruby Moon at the cosplay 😀 Didn’t sell much, but I had a lot of fun, spent a lot of money and talked to lots of nice people. I’ll have a write up for it soon. Unfortunately our camera is presumed lost right…

    when everything was 100%

    All costumes, 100% done. Gotta go to the bank and walgreen’s today, and back to the printer cause they screwed up my trigun print, and then to my aunt’s office to pick up some more money, and then to my aunt’s house to look for a piece of the Rinoa costume Cath thinks she lost there. Utena… I’m pretty satisfied…

    Ruby Moon wigs, etc

    Cath might get to come to MTAC with us, after all! She’s not getting to go on her Georgia retreat after all, so that means she has enough money and time to come with us to MTAC. She has to check and see what’s going on at school that friday, but she says even if she has to go class…

    Dad has GOT to take this freakin digicam back to work, before I take a picture of every single thing I own. Random Things Mutt! Ok folks, here is my baby. He is now 20 years old. He used to travel everywhere with me but he’s too fragile now. So he gets to sit on top of my desk in…

    Ruby Moon & Utena updates, and etc

    My Ruby Moon costume is now half finished… worked a little more on Utena last night, too. I hope I typed it right… I did this a while back for stress relief and it sat a long time without a background, which I finally finished… um, 3 or so weeks ago? I think I’m losing my touch CGing, out of…

    when i went horse back riding

    We actually went horse back riding yesterday. I haven’t been in years. I think my horse’s name was Whiskey, seriously. LOL! He was a nag! I know no one really cares, but costume update: We got the sewing machine fixed (for the 3rd freaking time). My Ruby Moon skirt is nearly done (and I put the finishing touches on the…

    when i planned for mtac

    Ha, ha, ha! We went over to Ash’s grandparents and had dinner last night. Then we met up with my aunt and Kristie to see Cats and Dogs. It was cute… I liked the Ninja cats and the Russian cat. I’m going to reserve our room at the hotel for MTAC tomorrow. We learned some things at Animazement (and from…

    when i was working on ruby moon

    Urk. I’ve been so busy lately. Some summer so far. Actually, my parents took me to see AI again last night. It was a nice break from working all day. It was just as interesting the 2nd time around, and I noticed some things this time that I didn’t last time. We also went and bought fabric for my costume…
