Been working on ES stuff today. I've got the new studio blog up and running (mostly) at [livejournal.com profile] espritstudios. Still have quite a bit to do, but I'm rather happy with how it is so far. I've also opened an ES FB page, but I haven't done any work on the content at all yet. I'll get to it tomorrow or the next day, hopefully.

It's taken me forever, but I'm determined to actually get off my rear and get all the Esprit and House of Yum stuff running. >O I CAN DO IT.

Other than that... I'm working a lot on things for people for Christmas. I don't have any money to buy presents for anyone this year, so I'm making things instead. It's the best I can do.

I'm making a home-made wreath for Mom (she finally threw out her old one last year), and doing a pony for Lee and one for my brother; then I'm doing jewelry for as bunch of people, and have a bunch of preserves for Lois. The only problem is Dad. I have no idea what to do for him! ;A; idk... maybe I can scrape up enough money to get him something, if he's the only one I'm buying for...

Anyway, all you people who would normally get cards and gifts from me, you'll still get them, just probably about a month from now because I won't have shipping monies until then. XD IT EXTENDS CHRISTMAS/YULE/ETC SHUT UP. <33

I STILL NEED ADDRESSES FROM PRACTICALLY EVERYONE. COMMENTS ARE SCREENED SO LEAVE YOUR ADDRESS HERE OR MESSAGE/EMAIL IT TO ME DAMN YOU ALL.

Other than that... my RL bff came back from England for a couple weeks. I miss her terribly, and haven't seen her since two-and-a-half years ago. She was supposed to come visit me today but ended up not being able to make it and she's going back to England tomorrow. ~_~;; FML. I was really seriously looking forward to seeing her, too.

Maybe if my government money comes through I can take a visit to England and see her there. That would be fun. I want to go there anyway. And I can inflict myself on other people while I'm there too! >D lol.

I just had the perfect cup of tea. Like, so exactly perfect that even though I want another cup I'm not going to have one because it could never measure up. I hate when that happens. Sort of. It's a kind of love-hate. XD;;

Last night while I was watching movies I made a really cute Halloween bracelet. I'll post pics of it when I get around to uploading them from my camera.

I've started packing for Otakon already, and trying to figure out last-minute arrangements. I have all my wigs packed except my red one and one of my brown-blonde ones. I also packed all of my neckties except my Ouran one, I think. XD; I still have to make sure I pack all my meds and first-aid supplies, and then packing my actual casual clothes (jeans, shorts, t-shirts, whatever) has to wait until like the day before I leave. Also, I still have to pack the NIN shirt and bracelets I ordered for BOYS!Riku cosplay, but I can't do that until they come in.

Someone needs to help me trim my Riku wig when we're settled in the hotel in Baltimore. /note

Tomorrow or the next day I have to go to the greyhound website and buy my ticket to get to Toronto on the 15th. My flight is at 12:30, which means I have to be there at 9:30am for check in, which means I have to leave here at 7am on the bus. =.=;; Ah well.

I finally broke down and got a new mp3 player. My Zen was lovely, but the controls stopped working about a year ago (it was only a year old at the time), and it had been stuck on shuffle after that. I could turn it on and listen to music, but I couldn't pick tracks, it just played stuff randomly. I finally got sick of it, and bought a new player. I got it really cheap though, so it's all good.

I just needed to have one for traveling, assuming I'm going to Otakon in July. I don't travel well long distances without music. >>;

Oh, and the passport office put through the payment on my credit card yesterday, so I assume I have been approved, which means that I am allowed to go to the US. :D Which is awesome, as if I wasn't allowed I couldn't go to Otakon even if I had the money. >>; WHICH I WILL. *DETERMINED*

...I think there's a possibility I will be cosplaying Lavi at AN after all. Casual!Lavi though, since I already have everything for it except an eyepatch. I'd just have to actually style the wig I bought a while back. Which reminds me, I need to go to Shoppers and get a pair of styling scissors at some point.

Tomorrow I'm going to the salon to get my hair cut, since it's been over a year since I had it done. Gotta have it short again to make wigs for con season easier. ♥

Okay, so I've been looking at rates for travelling down to Otakon in August. The general plan (unless Chloe objects, lawl, Maddie and I just kinna decided) is that I'm going to go to Dayton and then take the train with them to Baltimore. :3

I looked up the bus schedules and prices and then checked out the flight schedules and rates as well just in case, since sometimes flights are randomly cheaper. O__o; lol. Basically, it boiled down to about $91 each way (just under $200 all together) for the bus, and $500-ish return-trip for the plane. Less than half price for the bus, so BUS IT IS. =D;

Man, the bus ride to Dayton is almost 15 hours though. xD; I'm going to DIE. Must remember to pack lots of stuff to keep me entertained! My mp3 player and books and printed RY smut omg stuff like that! Maybe my sketchbook. Also, snacks. The bus line recommends snacks. *nodnod*

Also, between now and then I need to buy new headphones, and a portable charger for my mp3 player, since right now I can just charge it from my PC...

YAY!note: I have almost $200 ($195 lawl) saved up already! X3 I usually fail at saving munny, so this time I took an old pickle jaw (clean of course), and exacto-knived a hole in the lid, then super-glued the lid on so that once the money's in it I can't get it out without smashing the jar. HAH SPENDING TENDENCIES I WIN. >D
