Especially the weird semi-circular formations towards the "back" (Fremont side) of the storm. I'd really like to see any photos of that area if anyone managed to take any.

Okay, so the tiller was a good idea. There is no WAY we would have been able to dig all of that up by hand. The problem was that the ground underneath was so full of construction debris it was impossible to dig up properly. So.

Plan B will go into effect.

I am, however, toasty, and sore as all hell.

And now I need to go do homework.

Has anyone here had extensions installed by a hair salon called Cyberparlor in New York?

Recommendations for synthetic dread installers in the NY/CT area would be swell too.

Where is the cheapest place to get film developed? Yeah, you know, the old fashioned stuff that used to go in cameras. I have a few rolls around here that I'd like to get developed. No desire for quality or speed, just cheap. Thanks!

Dear Seattle: do you know of any places that sell mead?

I am a Tacoma native trying to venture out and have a good time tonight. Could anyone suggest a sports bar that would definitely be showing the fight tonight with a younger atmosphere? I haven't explored Seattle much sadly, so wouldn't know the first place to go.
Thanks for any ideas

Ce que vous voyez (je n'ai pas encore les photos, mais ce post vient d'un copier-coller d'un message que j'ai posté sur CFF; les images viendront quand je les aurai), c'est l'aboutissement de 2 ans de travail. Même si techniquement je n'ai commencé Padme qu'en février 2009, je travaille dessus depuis 2007. C'est à ce moment que j'ai commencé à collecter images/infos/tutos et que j'ai acheté les premiers tissus (les tickets font foi ^^). J'ai donc passé 2 ans dessus, et il a de nombreux défauts (si si).

Ce que je vais dire coule de source, mais sérieusement, ne vous lancez pas si vous ne vous informez pas au maximum sur le costume à faire ou sur la somme de travail que ça représente/peut représenter. Ne vous enthousiasmez pas juste sur une image en disant "je veux le faire".

Très franchement, faire ce costume de Padme m'a littéralement mise sur les rotules, même si c'est un rêve de cosplay que j'ai réalisé. Quand on fait ce genre de costume, il faut bien savoir dans quoi on s'engage sous peine de se décourager. Ca a failli m'arriver ici.

Alors le résultat est là et ça aurait pu être plus moche, vu la complexité du costume. Mais ça a aussi usé ma patience (les 9/10e du temps, soit plus de 250h, sont passés dans la broderie et le tressage des cheveux) et même si j'y étais préparée, ben voila quoi...

Voila ce que je voulais dire concernant ce costume en particulier, sachant que c'est aussi valable à un niveau plus général. Parce que comme me l'a dit Nicolas, le cosplay doit rester un loisir.

While I was walking west on N 50th at about 11:40, there was a massive traffic jam of cars on 50th. As I approached Meridian, I could hear emergency sirens coming from down the hill. (I could not see down the hill due to the angle and traffic.)

The emergency vehicle was obviously having trouble navigating the traffic (apparently due to the Wallingford Kiddies Parade). Cars were trying to pull over but there were very few places to go. Eventually the "emergency vehicle" reached the hill. It was not an emergency vehicle at all, but some kind of antiquated looking emergency vehicle painted white, proudly announcing its association with the "Seattle SeaFair Clowns." The assholes were waving at people as they squeezed together to let them pass through the turning lane. I hope the dude that waved at me realized I was not, in fact, waving, but flipping him off.

Fuck you, Clowns. What if there had been a real emergency vehicle with someone dying inside right after you? Ever hear of the boy who cried wolf? You could have killed someone with the annoyance you caused the other drivers when they realized you weren't a real emergency vehicle. Especially when a second one of your trucks went by.

Yeah, some of your siren sound's were not real siren sounds, but enough of them were that I am sure many people were as concerned as I was.

Fuck you losers. You better hope no one pulls this shit when YOU need emergency transport.

Edit: Yeah yeah yeah, sark away. But SSFC still suck.

Hello,

Can anyone recommend a good Ballard-area veterinarian that is either reasonably priced or would let me do a payment plan? I adore my cat but money is tight right now. She is acting normal, but has recently lost a significant amount of weight. She's probably about 7 or 8 years old (I found her as a stray 4 years ago). I would like to hear personal recommendations, which is why I didn't just google it.

Thanks!

GRRR! Stupid laptop keeps deleting my entire post when I hit backspace instead of backspacing. Goddammed hotkeys.

Well, today was definitely better than yesterday, so I cannot complain. Well, I could but I would sound ungrateful, which I am not.

Was finally able to get my biology book from the bookstore...that took an act of god and/or congress...and then some, but I now have all of my school supplies.

Got the only high school kid in biology for my lab partner...he's a bit like talking to a football helmet without the padding, if you know what I mean.

Bossman would like me to start doing some telecommuting to get some of the electronic filing done around the office; no problem there. Heh. He aslo referred to my time at work as 'value added'... Well, I don't see why not!

Anyhow, that's about it. Things are calming down. I start my personal training in the gym on Tuesday. Going to go in early on Monday to walk on the treadmill a bit anyway.

And those are my academic plans. That, and homework on the weekend. Boooo. :P

We started shooting the zombie scenes last night.

While we were filming in Audubon Park (near our house) Bryan suddenly started panicking and told me to "get down." Right as he said that, I heard what I thought was gunfire, and a car speeding by. I shot down to the ground and heard something shoot past me. I was thinking it was a paintball gun, and I didn't want to get hit because that would hurt like hell. We're now thinking it was an air-soft gun.

I wish we would have gotten their license. Oh wells.

Here are some stills from last night.

You need one of these!

I decided not to go all of the way to my delivery tonight. I can deliver it at any time tomorrow. I was gonna deliver it at 12:30AM'ish. But there wont be anywhere near delivery to safely and legally park the truck for my 10 hour sleeper time. The company would not give me a pre-plan out of there so that I could at least know which direction to be going in to look for a place to bed down. Sooo, I dont give a frak. I will deliver this tomorrow after I wake up... They will have to get something for me anyways, as I am not sitting in Harrisburg Pa for the whole weekend. :p

Getting kind of tired of busting my ass then getting no results/reward for my efforts. Think I will relax tonight.
