I'm working on a new scheme and layout for the pages, it's
going alright so far!
8-23-01:
Just
took some pre-faire garb photos. I always
have to do a little dress up to make sure that I have
everything done, everything works---and it's just fun to play
dress up too. Kris was a great photographer!
Four days until we're back to school and 9 days until KCRF!
8-20-01:
We're home from
Chicago--pretty much safe and sound. We had a couple
little crazy adventures; met a guy named Thomas that followed
us around for about 3 hours that talked about his
anti-psychotics medicine and how he doesn't hear voices in his
head anymore, the convention was really cool, we almost got
lost and drove into downtown, we visited the Compton of
Chicago by car on the way into town, I got fronted by some
girls on the "El" train because I was wearing socks
with my skirt (rockabilly stylee--g!), Kris and I got to have
a date on the town when we went to Navy Pier and everyone else
stayed in the hotel room to play Magic the Gathering and
sleep. The convention was sweet, I got a photo of me
with Cheetara and Liono from Thundercats (some patrons dressed
up). I took 6 rolls of film, photos should be up soon
along with a detailed description of the trip!

I just got my
birthday present from Alicia, she got some beeeeautiful
flowers delivered to my house while she's away visiting
her family! How cool is *that*?
Tonight
I got my presents from Kris, dinner at the Outback, an
Italian 1680's Triple Barrel Flint-Lock pistol replica and
a gift certificate to Torrid!
8-13-01:
It's official. I couldn't even get into my geocities
account to delete my pages, so I had to have Kris do it for
me. I had them all backed up on my hard-drive, so now I
just have to work on re-doing all of them and getting them up
and linked. I suppose the first thing that I will have
to do when I get back from vacation is to make a new
home-page. >nods<
A
lot has happened so far in August. The summer is coming
to an end, but it's been a well-needed rest. We also got
a digital camera sometime in the July-August area, which has
been a fantastic toy.
I finished up my pirate
garb for the Kansas
City Renaissance Festival this year (especially for Buccaneers
and Bandits weekend in October, which is also the weekend
for the Heartland Wenches'
Invasion).
The
BIG NEWS is that on August 16th (my birthday!) I'm going with
a bunch of people to Chicago for Wizard-Con for four days!
This is my first "big girl" trip, without family or
anything. Last fall I went to the KC faire with Jenny
and Summer, but my brother's best friend lives in KC--so he
drove down there with us and hung out with his friend.
I'm driving in one car, and I'd better remember Andy, my
brother's radar detector!
We
go back to school on August 27th and I'm taking:
Critical Approaches to Literature (one of the two finishing
classes that I need for my English minor), Survey of Business
Management, Computer Literacy with Applications (a special
'Business Major' editon), Introduction to Psychology,
Psychology Discussion and probably Yoga.
Kris
and I just dyed
our hair together (aw, how cute---did you vomit yet?)
today so we could be all uber cool for the Chicago trip, or
something.
The
wee-bit of summer that's left is going to fly on by, but it's
been a good one!
I
really want to get my faire sites up and working by the time I
go to KC over Labor Day, because I want to be able to take
tons of photos with our new digital camera! :)
Things
I want to work on site wise:
*First
things first, a new home-page. I think something along
the lines of a black background with maybe some scattered
daisy icons, maybe a side-bar or something. I have to
play around with a few things. I DO like the black
backgrounds on the pages, so I'm pretty sure that I will keep
that.*
*The
Renaissance Faire Pages*
*"Cast
of Characters" page, so everyone can know who all of
these peeps are that I always reference in my pages are!*
*Getting
up all old pages before I start new ones*
*Get
Chicago page up ASAP after I get the photos back* |
