On Otaplanning III
I forgot to copy over the list. Oops.
However, I have re-ordered hair and ordered gloves, and have the necessary materials (but not yet the skillz) to make boot covers, and need to find the glue gun VERY SOON. I am working on the party favors as I type. Figuratively. I hope to finish all the marking tonight and do the fun and easy part tomorrow. I get to use the MEGA paper cutter! (Typically we try not to touch this one. It's the teacher kind that's basically a little finger guillotine.) Then I get to cut apart a black shirt, stitch up a red one, return to pat catan's for a hole punch and red ribbon and elastic, and play around with some newspaper, not necessarily in that order. In between picking up the kids, dropping them off, haircut, karate, and food.
...If anyone's bringing a big wooden stick to Otakon I will very happily practice bo kata with it. Same goes for a mop. I'd offer to do my weaponless kata but about 2/3 of the way through I hit epic fail moves and fall over half the time. ...Actually that might work well for Sheena. Off goes my brain, plotting again. Oh boy.
Dad has agreed to let me take his digital camera. With its rechargeable batteries that last HALF A YEAR. Instead of mine which eats up AAs like Allen eats and doesn't load after flash pictures. This is why Dad is awesome. (He also gave me ordering-online clearance and is cool about Otakon in general.)
I expect to see most of you there! In fact, I am sleeping with at least three of you. Figuratively (literally in one case). If you are NOT staying with me or near me (Renaissance Inn) and don't expect to see me at the Tales photoshoot or panel and want to meet up, send me an IM (same name as this journal) and we'll work something out.
I can't believe there's only eight days left. OH MY GOD EIGHT DAYS. And I will be spending 3 of them in philly/on the road, and 2 of them babysitting. That means THREE DAYS to get done everything I have to get done and to pack.
Oh Lorelei and Martel.
