Tomorrow morning I wake up to go to work for the VERY LAST TIME!!!!!!!!!!

Last weekend Alphonse's attention was repeatedly drawn to the glass window that leads to the communal garden area outside my house. He'd attracted the notice of an apparently stray cat. A visibly cold and starving stray. After a while, since he didn't seem to be leaving, I put outside the little cat tower Alphonse never uses, for him to use as ( Read more... )

As of last Friday it's now official ( Read more... )

The briefness of this post and small nature of its scope will pale in comparison to the amount of fun cute anecdotes and accomplishments I've been criminally falling behind in retelling for the past several months, but as I now chill upon my return from Anime USA I thought I'd at least give sign of life and relate the first recent thing on my mind ( Read more... )

Thanks for Sarah and Leigh for taking these and helping me into the costume, and to Kittenmint for bringing it to the con with me. (don't ( Read more... )

As of Saturday night, if I understand the rules correctly, I am now officially a "Master-level" costume craftsman. My Alien picked up a couple of awards at Costume-con 27 last weekend. The full effect didn't hit me until just a few hours earlier, when I was sending a new updated bio to my theater company to reflect the achievement. Only then did ( Read more... )

I'll forgo all the nightmarish running-around and waste of money involved in the past two days of trying to finish my costume and things breaking at the last minute and concentrate on something super-awesome instead ( Read more... )
