One of these days I'm going to get back into the habit of posting here. Really.
So, I did a costume check last night, all my costume pieces with the exception of the ones I'm working on/tidying up are there, and as it stands I still have three complete costumes (old, but complete) to go to Dragon*Con with, so I'm happy. If I can finish the other portions of my costumes this weekend that'll give me five costumes, and if I can do at least a little bit of fixing up a new part for one of the costumes, that will be phenomenal.
To that end! My to-do list for the next several days, none vital all hopeful:
1.Raid Goodwill for a Faye Valentine-esque white top Tomorrow morning
2. Dye shorts and top yellow
3.Hit up Joanne Fabrics for a headband to paint yellow and some suspender/bracer clips
4. Apply bias tape maker to spare black fabric, make the bracer/suspender/garter tie thing.
5. Cut out leotard based on ripped up other leotard pattern Tonight
6. Sew leotard (five or six seams and lots of hems, not too hard) Tonight
7. Sew lightwire onto coat for Tron
8. Assemble pieces of Tron outfit.
9. Double check fit of corset for under Tron coat.
And then I need to pull together everything for Dragon*Con in terms of other stuff. Medicines need to go in the medikit, and actually that needs to be its own to do list as well. Netbook and cords need to be packed ... I'm going to go do that now.
There. Netbook and kindle cords are packed, along with Netbook. I need to email my contact information to at least one person I'm meeting and, there, done that. I need to pull together the medikit, figure out my knitting for the trip/downtime, probably confirm the hotel reservations which will require an email search because I have no idea where under all the damn house emails it went to. What I'd really like is some way to holster a water bottle to the bag I use for my medikit. That bag was really useful last year, I think I can fit everything into it again this year, but damned if I can figure out how to put a water bottle onto it. I've got my walking around money, my kindle is staying in my bag of holding until such time as we actually leave, and things. Stuff. I know I'm forgetting something. I'll dig out the giant to-do list of con prep when I get to work.
We finally, finally finished the fucking writeup of the last ep of Grimm. SPOILERS ABOUND. But it's here if you want to see it, the whole analysis and speculation and pictures and explanation and everything about how Eric gives no fucks unless you're a hot model and Renard is tired and cranky.
Right. And now work, finishing shit at work, um. Stuff and things. So scattered. Still not quite on the full schedule, although at least now it's just banging languages back into efficient shape.
