Every picture I take I pose a threat
On Friday, I listened to the new Jason Derulo CD on YouTube because I wanted to preview it before buying. I listened to it about six times, went home, played it (again on YouTube) for
mckitterick (twice), then drove to Target first thing on Saturday morning to buy their special Target-only edition with two extra tracks. You guys this album is just so horribly, delightfully awful. And then I found this.
So that was about ten billion shades of fantastic.
I leave on Thursday to visit the family in Indy. It's going to be an interesting and no doubt educational visit. I think I mentioned that Nana's back surgery didn't go well and the doctor said she probably wouldn't walk again. So now she needs care 24/7 which is why the parents aren't coming to visit me this time, as planned. So that's going to be interesting. My parents are amazing people for continuing to care for her instead of putting her in an assisted care facility. I hope they know (like, really, really know) I am not that amazing of a person and I will not be doing the same for them. Seriously. No.
After I return from Indiana, I'm taking time off work to get stuff done on the Chevelle and make necessary additions/creations/adjustments to a couple dance costumes so they're appropriate for the Czar Bar show in June. I also might need to, you know, start practicing to my music. *cough*
I also gotta get to work on the Coriolanus costume for Comic Con because Robin ordered our plane tickets today and OH MY FUCKING GOD WE ARE GOING TO San Diego Comic Con.

A couple weeks ago I made the decision to pay someone to make me the armor portions, including the bracers and scabbard. So all (all!) I need to do is buy fingerless gloves, make trousers, and find a knit shirt for underneath. Probably two shirts since I plan to wear it more than one day. Oh, and those green socks. At least I don't have to worry about finding boots! And I'm very glad that I realized ten seconds into the show that I was gonna make this costume because well-lit screenshots of his full costume from the first act are pretty much non-existent.
But anyway, yeah, there's my summer. Going to Indy, getting ready for the performance, working on the car, working on a costume, going to SDCC, working on the car some more, hopefully getting it to the point where I can drive it to St. Louis to get the stereo installed by fall, and then it's September and hoo-fucking-ray I don't have to prep for KCRF.

Finally, seen (and posted) on Tumblr today:
