Bleugh.Hungover and have a cold. Not a good combination.

Plus I now have it in my head that I want to create an all purpose Mara Jade costume for conventions and hallowe'en parties and the like. I'm not that person, honest, I don't go over the top with dress up outfits at conventions - I'll usually theme things rather than have a 'costume' (and then end up chickening out and not wearing it anyway...) but for some reason I want to make this costume. Could be the fact that I'm helping my nephew make a costume for a dress-up party he's going to this week (It's 80s themed, he's going as Adam Ant *g*) and I'm in the costuming mood. So, black sleeveless catsuit (which I can make), black biker boots, black shin guards, brown leather belt and shoulder holster, creamy cape (or maybe a black one, depends on what source picture I use, either way I can make that) and a red wig (optional extras - goggles and blaster). (Does it surprise you that I already have the lightsaber? *g*) I'll see how long this fascination runs for before I spend any money on it...

Now I'm off to go make some really greasey carbohydrate loaded food and curl up until the hangover's gone...

ETA I *think* I've emailed everyone currently nominated in the White Knight Awards with the exception of one author who I cannot find contact details for. They do have an LJ though, so if I haven't found anything by the time the nominations close I'll post a comment on there. There are a couple more nominations to add to the site and one link to fix which hopefully I'll have done today.

My heating was fixed at the start of the week.

My heating is not working now.

I'm kinda... bored. Saw this on cafedemonde's journal and since I did the BtVS version a while ago, I thought I'd do the Star Wars Extended Universe version.

The rules: list ten characters from any fandom, then tackle the questions...

( a long time ago )

( in a galaxy so wrong it hurts )

I need to go bleach my brain now.
