I quit my job today

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

My last day is October 15. Everyone was very nice about it.
It feels entirely odd; I’ve never quit a job without having already lined up my next job or school or a massive move. It’s the health thing. I’ve now been fighting this thing for 20 months. The medical leave taught [...]

DragonCon pics from other peoples’ Flickrs

Monday, September 29th, 2008

I think I earned the name “Steampunk Ambassador” for all the times I explained “about all the goggles this year” to people. Here are the photos of my costume’s final version from other people’s Flickr sets. If you know of/took other photos of my costume, please send me a link! [...]

Steampunk Catwoman trial run pics

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

Here are some pictures of this year’s DragonCon costume. Per the experienced costumer’s tradition, I always test the whole ensemble before the event. In this case, I discovered 2 breakages which were easy to remedy at home but would have been difficult in Atlanta.

Back soon, I hope. I need to do an upgrade on WordPress, so if this breaks, please [...]

See the comments on the previous post. I’m working on it, but it may take a few days. I will also put up another file in ~ the next week, depending on the amount of time the fix takes.

back in town, back on podosphere soon

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

Family funeral took DH and I back to Toledo for a week on short notice, and we just got back. Next podcast should go up in a week or so. I have a lot of life-catching-up to do first. My luggage should arrive tomorrow, then work, laundry, cooking, rescheduling the stuff that [...]
