well...I found the fabric I want to use.  And I took a nice nap ( Read more... )

...AND I accomplished...

NOTHING!!!
HAH!Seriously, Thursday was a waste.  I had about an hour a sleep because of the allergy pills.  Yippee.  Insomnia!  So I spent the day constantly about to fall asleep with bouts of mental clarity.  My brain went out the window completely and I started a cosplay page on facebook.  Saw an article about some ( Read more... )

Yeah!  Allergies are getting better!  New pills are ACTUALLY working.  Happily this means I might of escaped getting a sinus infection.  I might not of escaped an ear infection though.  I really should find out what those type of trees that I am so horribly allergic to are.  I am usually okay with a minor allergy pill...except when those trees ( Read more... )

Anyhow...went onto facebook this morning & smack dab in front of me was one of my BIGGEST peeves I have.  A very OBVIOUSLY photoshopped image that some IDIOT decided to label as cosplay.  *angry dragon flips table & proceeds to have a temper tantrum*

*Ahem*  Okay.... So I've been having a LOT of gripes recently with what I like to refer to as "the ( Read more... )

And not what I was trying to post before, BUT due to a particularly good tax return, I MIGHT be able to afford to go to Balticon this year.  If I can get a new job before hand, I might even allow myself the luxury of a hotel room.  (Luxury since the con is only a 30 minute drive ( Read more... )

REALLY LIVEJOURNAL?!?  I JUST SPENT AN HOUR TYPING SOMETHING THAT YOU JUST OVER WROTE WITH A PREVIOUS ENTRY.  AND NO, I DON'T HAVE TIME TO RE-WRITE IT.

NOW I EVEN MORE ANNOYED.  GOOD JOB.

So I've been thinking back on all the cons I went back when I could afford to go.  And thinking about how some were so much fun and how some stuff kept others from being as great as the con should of been.

And while some stuff might of been slightly out of my control, most of it does have to do with my choices.  Some stuff- while good intentioned- ( Read more... )

Okay...now I just bought all this bead making stuff on Saturday, right?  Would you believe I don't have an item I swore I bought?

I guess this is just something you have to laugh at yourself for.  But I really swore I bought it.  I even checked my receipts- nope, not on any of them.  I must of picked it up and put it back planning to get it later ( Read more... )

Okay, so I finally started working on one of my costume.  Now I SWORE I had EVERYTHING I needed.  Did I?  Nope.  Well, I had the fabric, had the wig, so what was missing?  The beads needed for the jewelry.  Oops.

Okay, no problem, right?  Just go out and get what's needed.  Hah!

Now back when I started making the jewelry I needed for costumes, there ( Read more... )

I guess since I haven't been going to many cons recently, I just don't have the drive to make the costumes.  But I really, REALLY should get working on those.  I mean it's not really about money for these- I already have what I need.  The worst thing I might have to buy is thread.  Yeah, like that will break my wallet.

I really have no excuse WHY I ( Read more... )
