Cranky. Old. Man?

So, I am waiting on some more photos before I make a full con report, but I just need to point you all to this genderbend FFX group who apparently were inspired by the genderbent Auron-Jecht-Braska we had last year.

I'm a little gay for Yuna, I have to say. Unf. Guy cosplayers, please crossplay more. It can turn out REALLY awesome. Also HALO WAKKA.

Variant cosplays are still my favorite ones to see. They're SO CREATIVE.

Was good. I took the day off (aside from two hours this morning to work out some math for the Aero game) to finish my Yue costume, which aside from the wig I am going to style at the wig party tomorrow, is done. As much as I'm going to get it done at least. I think it will look great.

My mom was over at my place for most of the day because my dad is out of town, as she originally wanted me to come over to her house. Not that I don't like the house, but I still was in the midst of finishing work on the Yue dress. Turned out to be a pretty good day for both of us that way. I certainly hope she feels less lonely at least. Well, my sister is moving closer, so that should also help.

So starting tomorrow I'll be out at OTAKON. Which is why you didn't hear from me much this week. Let's just say that I got sick over the weekend, thus taking away the time I was originally going to spend making my Yue costume, work got crazy, and I almost lost my mind. Thankfully I had today to recharge and get shit done. And also marathon a season of Project Runway with my mom.

Now I just need to finish packing. OTAKON HERE I COME!!!

Pic version to follow later. Well, there are a COUPLE pics in this one, I guess. XD

( so Jesus brought the bar with him )

More to follow when I can think properly again.

Stayed home today, so I am doing work stuff and other stuff kind of interchangeably. Had a ridiculously awesome breakfast and didn't have to change out of my pajamas and drive. Win.

So someone posted a few of the Complication soundtracks, and I have to say, I'm a little charmed by the Before Crisis one. Doesn't hurt that I find Before Crisis to be one of the few semi-worthwhile parts of the Complication. It's all orchestral-techno spy sounding stuff, which ah, I love. Anyway, if you didn't catch the link on ff_press, it's right here. There's something ironic about it being posted to a yaoi comm.

Funnily enough, the music makes me think of working on Grow Up And Blow Away. Techno Western Noir, anyone?

Have figured out that I can take a carry-on that's big enough to carry a costume and a change of clothes, will still need to check a bag due to the Edea dress being, well, huge. Also since I'm bringing another pair of boots and stuff like that, I need that suitcase anyway. In order to save room in the hotel room, I'll not take the carry-on with me there, just leave it at Jana's (IS THAT OK, JANA?). Trying not to take up too much room, but Edea = lots of stuff no matter what I do. XD Will put the stuff I've made for other people in the carry-on also, so there's no issues with the stuff possibly getting lost. I hope NOTHING gets lost or delayed, but I run on the pessimistic side.

Also, Otakon peeps, I can't take the new camera, since my parents just got it. But between Sev and Jana we're covered, right?

( to do! )
