ah, yes, the joy of typos. You see, that was supposed to be "I love being short." I was talking to matt... yeah, anyway, that typo there was spawned by the fact that my Natalia bow is a full, brace yourselves.... 2 INCHES shorter than me. Yeah, I'm gonna look ridiculous carrying it around con.

Anyway, at last the bow is finished, and my dist collar has been painted. I put my sweat, blood and tears into that thing... no, really, I did. Pins are sharper than you might thing... and, well, my parents were watching marley and me in the other room, so it was like... a sob fest for me.

so, just some last minute hand sewing to do, which I'll probably do in the car on the way up, and then I'm done! oh, and I gotta paint my mask, but that shouldn't be too painstakingly awful. Anyway, I'm super excited and I can't wait to see those of you who're going, and to those of you who can't make it, you will be missed!

well, I'm leaving for Seattle in approximately 13 hours, so, see you all there (or you know, not there... )
