It was cold and wet this morning, but, I still needed to go out and get some stuff

To that end, I decided to wear my Coat....the one I wore as part of my 'M.I.B.' Costume at AussieCon IV in fact

On my way out, I caught sight of myself in the mirror, and, with my Black Coat over my Blue Polo Shirt, and Black Jeans, I couldn't help but notice how much ( Read more... )

JEDI SHAME

Given that Yoda was probably no bigger than the average hound, it's no wonder dogs look so "natural" when dressed up as the little green Jedi. With links to further pet humiliation in honor of Christmas.

Went out and got my Usual Tram this morning, but only spotted one Con Goer

Oh well

Pottered around for a bit before going in for the first Panel I wanted to see -- Far future: where fantasy meets SF, which dealt with aspects of where, if at all, the Line should be drawn between Fantasy and Science Fiction

From there, I went off to have some Lunch :-)

Leaving this morning about 10:20 in order to get The Free Tram in plenty of time to get to The Con before any Panels I might have wanted to go see, it wasn't long before a few other Con Attendees made their way to that same Tram Stop to await The Free Tram as well

Recognizing each other as Con Attendees thanks to The Lanyard that was supplied, one ( Read more... )

Well, AussieCon IV is now under way....

Got there just a little before 14:00 today and went in to see The Opening Ceremony, which started with a brief film which stated that Mad Max was still our only real Saviour, which also gave references to Crocodile Dundee, Kenny, Star Wars, Back To The Future, The TERMINATOR, The Matrix, and probably a few ( Read more... )

Well, I did the Final Test Fit this morning, and so far, everything still Fits me :-p ( Read more... )

With a Thought a week or so ago about dragging out my 'Dr Who' Scarf (which I Knitted myself, as it happens, back in 1997) to go as 'The Doctor' as a potential 'Alternate Costume' to the M.I.B.

In doing so, I managed to find a ( Read more... )

As I sit here....thinking about what I still have need to do to get ready for The World Kohn (:-D) next Thursday, I find myself looking back at the Conventions I've been to ( Read more... )

A couple of weeks ago (literally, in this case), I decided to try once more if I could find a Hamilton Ventura Watch for the M.I.B. Costume I'm doing for AussieCon IV

So, I looked through my New Costuming Source -- E-BAY (as I had a few times during the past 8 months in this regard) -- to see what might currently be on Offer, and I found one to Bid ( Read more... )

Alllllllllllllrighty then

Well, this morning I Test Fitted some Black Slacks I got a few months ago, which yes, do still Fit me :-p

I also Test Fitted a Black Shirt which I got at the same time, which likewise still Fits me (aside from the Top Button, which I'm not concerned with), and put on a Tie (which is why I'm not concerned about the Top Button ( Read more... )
