For better or worse (probably worse) I'm making another attempt to go to Fan Ex today. Hope to see people there!

[expletive deleted] your line-up all the way down to Blue Jays Way, a several hour wait without shade or air conditioning. [expletive deleted] your ticket prices and policies. [expletive deleted] Canada Post for not delivering my Alice wig in time. [expletive deleted] Fabricland for making me use up my VACATION DAYS for this bullshit even though I' ( Read more... )

I'm going t be away from the Lair for pretty much all of today, tomorrow, and Sunday, so if anyone wants to get in touch with me, my cell is the way to go. Or check in at Dr. Holocaust's AA table.

My Crystal Entropy costume is done re-done and I'll be wearing her Friday (teal dress with silver snowflake emblem, white wig). Alice wig has not arrived ( Read more... )

Question for Con/Masquerade people: Alice won "Best in Show" at Ad Astra. Assuming my wig arrives and is not a disaster, would it be a Bad Idea to enter again? I have a few friends trying to talk me into it since my planned costume isn't even close to ready.

So I have not been on lj much lately... not posting anyways. I'm keeping up with everyone else, though ^_^. It's because of the heat wave. its so freaking hot in my room that I just can't stand to have my computer on for more than an hour or two. It blows. I am really really really sick of this heat. And short of buying an air conditioner (which ( Read more... )
