sapient pear tree's loose again...

A prop only a Discworld fan could love: someone made The Luggage from the novels!

Also check out SurlyGirlie's Costume-O-Rama, especially the Star Wars Episode I costumes - oh, to have enough time to make something THAT elaborate!

minor health vent

I'm starting to believe my friend C. (who works in the medical profession and is therefore in a position to know what she's talking about): I think all my aches and pains and wavering fever are due to a long-term sinus infection.

I don't feel like hell - more like heck. Well, if you count the fever, a bit like smeg - enough to annoy me but not enough to dull my lame sense of humor :P

Seeing doctor in just over a week. How sad am I, that I'm actually looking forward to a doctor's appointment? I loathe doctor's visits!

and more

Pix from one Dragoncon attendee. No, I didn't go, and none of these costumes are mine (Star Wars heavy, as this guy seems to be a member of the 501st Stormtrooper brigade), but when pix of pretty costumes fall in my lap, I feel obliged to share :P

And, I am hoping that this shot wasn't from the RNC last week....
