Oh god. Youmacon is less then 3 weeks away. I NEED TO GET SO MUCH STUFF DONE RIGHT NOW. Out of the 3 costumes slated to be done, only 1 is done (and still there are some tweaks with it). The others....not so much. I haven't even started on my sailor suit yet, and my fabric for my ball gown is in shipping limbo right now. Theoretically I'll get it done. I've got check lists and everything. I've just to to be able to get them all done in the time slots I've estimated or I'm in trouble. Just someone move the tea kettle downstairs by my workstation. I'm not going to be leaving it anytime soon

I've really been trying to go to more conventions this year. In the past I've only really gone to 2 or so a year. But since I'm actually making an effort to work on costumes, and make more of them, attending more conventions has become kinda important to me. So when a friend told me about Glass City Con, its.....LETS GO! I just need to see if the people I talked to earlier, can still manage to make it to the convention with me and are willing to help with the Hawkgirl outfit.

I'm back from Colossalcon and I can DEFINITELY say I am coming back next year!! This place had a vibe to it that I've never seen before. But now I'm back home, and reality is demanding my attention again. Back to school and work, and time to do repair work on the costumes and start on some new ones in time for Youmacon. The hard part is going to be narrowing down what I'm going to start working on (and how much do I want to needlessly complicate what could be an otherwise normal costume).
