And it was a day off, too. What a waste. It wasn't that particularly bad things HAPPENED, I'm just miserable for no reason. With a brief break of insanity in the middle of the day ( Read more... )

I saw Mark Strickson!! I got my picture taken and threeeee autographs. Both of my Companions books are autographed, now. That rocks. He's got the best autograph of all the Doctor Who actors I've ever seen, too. He not only signs it "To _your name_", but adds a little phrase (in two cases on mine he wrote "very nice to meet you", but he seems to ( Read more... )

The fact that I'm bored, my brain is full of thoughts, and my mate isn't online yet. So you all have to bear the brunt of my cranial discharge ( Read more... )

As I attempt to assemble a relatively complete collection of all my Doctor Who related music and sound files for the trip to UFC (ahhh, a 2 hour drive to a sci fi con... what better time to be playing this CD?), I'm trying to hunt down Doctor In Distress again ( Read more... )

Well, my "vacation" is almost over. I'm half glad, since I'm getting a bit of cabin fever, but I'm also miserable because I'll have to go back to work. Also, I'm still incredibly lightheaded - I have to be very, very careful, or I will faint. Even singing in the car. Seriously folks. Singing a long phrase, so that my air is running out, which ( Read more... )

I've bought my tickets for United Fan Con! I need to find a hotel, still (hopefully cheaper than the con hotel), but at least I've got the tickets all set. I bought a photo session with Mark Strickson too, cause... just cause. It's Mark Strickson for god's sake. Much as I hate photos, proof I met him will not go amiss ( Read more... )

Okay, my day sucked. I was just generally pissed off and miserable. I snapped at a hapless newbie coworker, and there was really no call for that. I'm not sorry though, not really. He's a moron. He still didn't deserve it, THIS TIME, but he's a moron. I'm kind of tired of being nice at work all the time. I'm tired of being nice everywhere all the ( Read more... )

Life is SO unfair. I just found out that Mark Strickson will NOT be at United Fan Con (thanks for all the notice, guys), and Sylvester McCoy will be there instead. This totally sucks. I've been getting through life on the assumption that I will get a big happy get-to-see-a-favorite-star moment in November and now that will not be happening. I mean ( Read more... )

I've discovered Rent. Okay, took me long enough, seeing as just about everyone (it seems) who's into musical theater loves this thing to freakin' death. I, however, had managed to avoid it until now, somehow. However, with the new movie coming out, I figured I'd see what all the fuss is about. The vocal harmonies in some of these songs make me very ( Read more... )

Here are some pics of the costume, behind the cut.
