Little Talks

          This is the line up for Anime Boston 2013 this May. From Avatar The Last Air Bender - Mai, from Naruto Sakura (adult/Jounin), from Star Wars - Siri Tachi (we're doing Clone War's generals so I'll be making some foam armor for that one) and of course you all know Sinclair Reau also from Star Wars... tho not a real character. I am really excited for this con and CAN NOT WAIT!I've been working on Sakura's Jounin vest for about three hours now and it is coming out perfect, I just need to purchase a longer zipper and some parachute buckles. I haven't even started Mai yet but there is still time.
          Haven't had any more panic attack thank the gods.
          I'll put some photos in the next post, promise!

Your Bones

            



Yesterday my friends and I went to the Rhode Island Flower this weekend located here in Providence. Thursday is my only day off so I called out trip research for cake ideas and inspiration for spring to come. It was amazing, I knew that there were going to be garden designs there but I didn't imagined the size of them all. It was like walking into a forest on a spring day, the smells and the sounds. OH it was wonderful! Kinda sucked having to leave and go back outside to the snow on the ground and more coming this weekend. If your in the area and have some time to spare it really is an awesome day trip. Not only are the selling plants and gardening things, there is food and some many venders! I can not wait for spring to get here so I can get my fingers in the dirt again!
          Also yesterday my friend and I had a mini photo shoot in her background because I can't go to an event this weekend due to work. I really haven't worn my armor that much anymore which makes me sad. 









           Yeah I think this is only some of the photos we took! We went a bit crazy but it was fun! I need to fix a few things and upgrade my girth belt. I picked up some of the materials yesterday afternoon so maybe that is what I'll be doing today.
           On a darker note I did have a panic attack this morning after I was two hours late from opening the bakery, yeah I got the call at 6am when I was supposed to be there for 4am. I frighted out and made it to the bathroom but as I was putting my contacts in my hands were shaking and my chest hurt. I started to black out seeing tunnel vision , my skin felt like it was on fire and I  could feel the sweat rolling down my back. I had no idea what was going on, I had to call work back and tell them I wasn't coming in, there was no way I could drive like that, hell I couldn't even stand up. I was gonna call 911. But thank the heavens it passed, I calmed down. Scarey doesn't even beginning it.

Apologies

Everything is still covered in snow about a foot of snow is left still on the ground and we are getting two to four more inches tonight. I am not pleased. If it snows more than the people from the weather channel think and the roads get bad, I really really don't want to call out on another Sunday. Being only part-time means that Sunday hours time and a half and without that extra money in my check there really is no reason. Isn't that sad? I work six days a week and Sunday is the day that makes my bank account happy. (sigh) No need to dwell on that though! Look what I made at work today!
















I already added it to the cake section and boy was this fun to make! I can not explain just how happy it makes me that this couple keeps coming back to our Bakery for their twin's birthday! This is the second cake I've done for them and it feel amazing!! I can't thank them enough!

We had our D&D campaign last night and it was epic!  We fought this zombie Black Draco-lich and I'm playing the cleric! OH it was crazy I'd run up and heal the blasted thing and our tank would pick me up and throw me to safety I still can't believe that it worked.  We were so close to death I was getting really nervous that it might have been the end. But thankfully we all held on and killed (so to speak) the damned thing, oh and we were flying on an airship at the time. I've also got all these new ideas for drawings, I feel like I've been drawing out the story instead of writing it down... maybe I should start writing!   I've got some pictures already done and I need to upload them to the ART section of the blog. Taking photos of the different stages is pretty awesome, I can watch the magic happen or I can stop and only show part of it. I've found that not everything drawing is going to be awesome... that sometimes I'm just not into it.

Nemo

 
Our snow forts!! >:D
New England is at the beginning of a huge snow storm today, it started snowing around 9am in Rhode Island and has only continued to snow harder. Now if you've read another post in this blog than you know that I work at a bakery. Today work was rockin' and rollin' we made a crazy amount of bread and EVERYTHING! I did have yesterday off and I told that Thursday was a hell hole, so much worse then today. People were going crazy there was even a fight across the street at the local gas station and the cops were called. I love it was the bakery is busy but it also sucks because the shoppers are in a rush and want to get home ASAP they almost completely forget their manners. Simple, basic manners is all I ask for. Is that so hard? Do you really think that I want to be at work watching the snow pile up? Of course not. But I can't change that, I will work as hard and as fast as possible to get your order to you... just say 'thank you.' or  'be safe on your way home.'

On a lighter note I was playing with the dog outside when I got home from work today, I even built a snowman I can't remember the last time that I did that. Its been years. I'm going to post the video that the boyfriend took as soon as I get it on the computer. Its not the proudest moment in my life but it sure is funny to watch.

For those who are in New England, have fun in the snow. Be safe!!

Bring it on Nemo!
