A week and a day

I'm not an adrenalin junkie, but I'm glad that sort of person exists.



This morning's workout at the gym was injury-free. HURRAH!

It's a week and a day before I leave for Comic-Con and ugh. I gotta figure logistics of things like if Amy picks us up at the airport, should I have her drop us off at the convention center on Wednesday so we can get our passes the day before so we don't have to waste time in line on Thursday, then how does she pick us up and what do we do with our luggage on Friday if she drops us off at the hotel where we're staying Friday night....blah blah blah. This is the sort of thing my brain fixates on. Never the fun stuff.

I've also started to make a list of things I gotta do to be ready to even leave: make beef jerky, shop for transportable food, figure out what tee shirts to take (IMPORTANT), estimate my spending budget...



The construction out on the street is still constructing, and Friday the jackhammers were causing heavy and consistent enough vibrations that it actually made it quite pleasant to sit in my chair at my desk. AHEM. Yesterday and today, though (and maybe tomorrow? dunno) we're having construction in our office hallway to move a wall and a door. I have to sit at my desk wearing earplugs. It's pretty horrible.

Today's (huge) Tumblr collection is Tuesday, July 15: Cosplay part two. Part one is here.

Terribly, horribly, deliciously evil!

Trip logistics are SUCH a pain! I hope it all works out more easily than it seems right now.

Ugghghghghghghg I hope so, too. We're staying with friends Wednesday and Thursday and we're in the hotel Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Our badges (the days we'll be attending the con) are Thursday, Friday, and Sunday.

That's some ugly math.

That whole video was probably a big bowl of Nopeflakes for me! I got as far as the guy tight-rope walking before my stomach dropped out and I had to stop it. :X

Hooray for an injury-free workout!! \o/

OMG Comic-Con is right around the corner! I didn't realize that! My brain fixates on the logistics stuff too. Stupid brain. I should poke it with a Q-tip.

Oh hey, jackhammers can be useful. Excellent :D

TBH, I've been in denial the past week and a half. I'm only just now starting to think about this stuff.

I came here to say something relevant, but that gif...

That's what happened to me too ...

MY WORK HERE IS DONE

When I worked in the Kansas Union they jackhammered out a cement staircase. You can imagine what jackhammers in a brick stairwell sound like, right?

LOVELY.

I'm commenting again because I just got to look at the cosplay Tumblr collection and I'm absolutely gleeful that you got my very favorite Joker and Herley cosplayers, Anthony and Alyssa. Those two... ♥

THEY ARE FUCKING AMAZING.

[identity profile] 1-rhiannon-1.livejournal.com 2014-07-16 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Right? I follow them on Facebook and their story makes my heart smile :) Not to mention, have you seen them out of makeup?! Holy crap, they're beautiful!!

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-07-16 02:56 pm (UTC)(link)
They really are. If I see them or one of the Deadpool cosplayers at SDCC, I'll be thrilled!

Random factoid: today is Anthony's birthday :)
I'm not sure if they're planning on SDCC this year or not but I bet anything that one of the Deadpools will be there. Or more :D
