i got the black lung, pop
No it’s not con crud. I’ve never really gotten con crud except that one time I came back from WSMI in Columbus sick in 2006. But the weather is changing and I’m still worn out from dragoncon so I feel like death warmed over. I slept a lot this weekend. Vague aches and pains in the back of my head/neck.…

Dragoncon Eve
Happy Dragoncon Eve! It’s happy because I FINISHED EVERYTHING LAST NIGHT. Well like 99.9% but still, everything major is DONE and if the stuff I plan on doing tonight doesn’t get done, it’s not a big deal. So my to-do list is: Run one errand after work Do laundry Trim that lacefront wig that’s arriving today (the base for the…

Final round-up post! You can find me at: The Vintage Vogue Fashion Show – Friday @ 1pm (Hyatt) The Post-Parade Doctor Who Photoshoot – Saturday @ 10:30am (Hilton Steps) Marvel Superhero Photoshoot – Sunday @ 3pm (Hilton Steps) The last two are dependent on the weather — if it’s raining it’s no go for me. I still don’t know when…

Whatever
I have been struggling for two months to come up with 12 costumes I want to take to Dragoncon. I’ve been having a hard time whittling down the list to make it be 12. Today I decide to f— it. I’m taking all of them. With this possibly being our last Dragoncon, why should I limit myself? I may not…

Dragoncon thoughts – again
It’s that time of the year, the time of the year when I can’t make up my mind about what costumes I want to take to Dragoncon with me. Currently… 1. Captain Marvel – For sure! I have all my fabric, just need to find a base pair of boots, buy a zipper and some buttons and I have everything…

Costume-y Thoughts
I’m really itching to get started working on stuff. Here’s some thoughts on things. 1. Donna Noble – Unicorn & the Wasp I was supposed to pick this up again after Dragoncon and of course I have not. I do still plan on finishing it, it’s all sitting in a box waiting on me to come back to it. 2.…

2014 Year in Review – 2015 Plans
It’s that time of year!! Time to look back at what I accomplished and what I… didn’t accomplish. So last year, I said I was going to make… 1. Willow – Buffy the Vampire Slayer Nope. Even though this would have been easy I just never got to it. 2. Johanna’s Interview Dress – Catching Fire I DID THIS ONE!…

MCFC Costume Thoughts
Thinking about what to wear to MCFC – I’m not staying on site, so I’ll have to go home to change, which limits things to costumes that are comfortable for several hours and can be worn in the car. I’m thinking about: Marie Antoinette TARDIS Wasp Peggy Megara Trillian Valkyrie Marvel Girl That’s a decent selection, I think.

Peggy Carter (tweak jacket fit, trim wig) 3. Glimmer (fix petals that have come off the staff, replace a snap) 4. Time Lord (glue seals back onto…

Deep Thoughts

Final Dragoncon Line-up
Last schedule thoughts: Friday I will definitely be at the Vintage Vogue Fashion Show, so I’ll be over at the Hilton from 12:30-2:30. If I can manage I’ll try to wear Anne a little longer than that, otherwise I’ll probably be in her again Sunday. Saturday I’ll be at the USO Girls/WWII shoot at 12:30 as Peggy, and later that…

A sort-of schedule
So, here is an attempt at a Dragoncon Schedule. Wednesday: Evening – Johanna, for a photoshoot. I will not be wearing this “on the floor” that night. Hoping to go take some shots on the 10th floor (and the elevators before they get too crowded). If anybody else is already in and has a Hunger Games costume and wants to…

Dragoncon round-up
Where I’m at Anne Boleyn: Mostly done. Chase is working on the crown. Finished the jewelry last night. Need to try it on once more and make sure the back panel is sitting correctly, and readjust the buttons that aren’t sitting right. And get some insoles for my shoes. Peggy: I need to curl the wig again, but otherwise very…

If I don’t get it done enough, I may throw together a Fires of Pompeii Donna instead. Anne Boleyn: 98% done YAY Peggy Carter: 95% done – finishing wig and…

Dragoncon 2014 Schedule
[raw]I can’t believe it’s 2014. This will be my 13th DragonCon. It seems like just yesterday I was getting ready for my first one in 2002. But, here’s some things I’m thinking of bringing: It’s already kinda out of date since I made it. Here’s some thoughts and updates. Anne Boleyn – from “Anne of the Thousand Days.” This is…

DRAGONCON COMETH
Now Momocon is out of the way I get to dig into Dragoncon stuff. On our way out of Atlanta, we stopped by Gail K Fabrics, and I found some fabric I’m happy with for Peggy Carter. I’m beyond myself excited to tackle Peggy and Anne Boleyn – so I’ll be jumping on those, first. I’ve really got to figure…

MomoCon Plans!
I’ll be at Momocon weekend after next! I’ve never been before so I am excited! At the moment I’m planning on bringing Donna, Belldandy, Belle, and Meg (which is new! I’ve got progress in my blog…). Since I’ve never been I don’t know when I’ll wear what, exactly. I will hopefully wear each of those costumes at some point between…
