Preparations

     How long has it even been!? Guys. ... it's been. And for that... I am coming to you with... THINGS! Things to talk to about! And see and stuff.

Are you guise so jealous


Of this incredible salad I am eating right now?
It's .. lettuce, caesar croutons, garlic mushrooms in some weird oil or whatever, calamata olives in feta cheese shit and oil or something w/ like garlic and stuff I think, and caesar dressing.
MMPF. That savory, acidic goodness. NOMS!

Wanna read about some adventures?!

Okay look. First let me just warn you about the content you are about to read. It's purty gross, guise.
Okay, here we go.


A long while back, my friend Ponies sent me this package. It had a few things, but this one... this so called "Baby Foot" thingie was the weirdest.


 It's literally what that says. "Exfoliant foot peel." The box doesn't lie. And let me tell you how well that shit worked. LET ME TELL YOU.


These were the plastic booties that came in the packaging. They're filled with an exfoliating solution. You put these bad boys on, secure them with the included tape thingies, and sit your ass down for an hour; maybe play some Candy Crush, maybe watch dumb YouTube videos.... maybe watch Breakin'.. the world is yours.
Once you're done you rinse the gook off your feet and almost have a heart attack because yellow is not the normal color of your nails, especially if you don't have jaundice. Once you get over that, you go back to your room and suddenly become really intrigued and fascinated by your feet. That goes away after about 4 minutes, which is when the waiting begins.

Here is where you must listen carefully and do as I say. Google it.

If you refuse, or are lazy...

After 4-5 days... It's real. Those are not my feet, but let me tell you how real the peeling is. It's SO real.
And nothing is more awful than not being able to peel it as it flaps off the edges of your feet like a fucking fish fin. Skin. Everywhere. 
After a shower? Fuck that shower mat. Carpet? Fuck your floor.
Socks? no, please.
Sleep? WHO NEEDS A FITTED BLANKET ANYWAY
Those slices of dead skin are massive. And sometimes, when you ignore the instructions and peel it off anyway... you might get the most amazing, satisfying feeling in the world as you try to peel off the biggest piece in the universe in one try. You might.
Oh, it's been 7 days, looks like it's just about done. The bottom of my feel aren't peeling as much anymo-OH WAIT NOW THE TOP, TOO?

Oh, shit. Sorry... is that gross? 
YOU DON'T KNOW. Just try it. 
My feet didn't need it horribly, but they're kind of adorable now. I feel as if some lady just stopped by one day and gave birth to my feet and was like... here you go

Yeah. Sorry for this absolutely awful Baby Foot spam. It's worth it. Probably the coolest beauty product I've ever bothered with. It took me a while to do it because I don't trust or believing in beauty or skin care. One could say I was fortunate enough to never really feel the need to resort to using them, but this.... this was cool. This was like... science. You're watching your foot decompose at a certain level. It's neat. 

MOVING ALONG.

Son of Monsterpalooza was this last weekend!
This is where I debuted my 2nd cosplay; Leech Woman (from Puppet Master)
I had everything set to go, except...

her damn brooch. I forgot about her brooch! 
That very same Friday, I went out and grabbed any last minute supplies I would need to put stuff together. Fett also played a big role in altering her dress. Without a dress form to work on, it's difficult for me to measure accurately. Without him, I don't believe it would've been done right. 
Thank you, my darling.

For her brooch, I just used my rinky dink glue gun and some acrylic paint. I picked up some rhinestones at Michaels to decorate it with, because that's how she do.



 Much trial and error. You can see how I fucked up on the stencil I drew to the right.
Basically I just drew the outline of the shape of her brooch and filled it in with hot glue. Initially for some reason I thought that I could blend the acrylic paint and the hot glue together and spread it out evenly. Doesn't work that way. The glue cooled too quickly, it looked busted, and so I had to start over.


That mug is so cute. Got it at Michael's ;) 

Aaaaaand yeah! Once we felt the dress was finished, I glued that ghetto ass brooch on and... tadaa!! Finished. lol.


You can kinda see it there. 
I was pretty happy with how everything turned out except for the boots. She doesn't wear shoes. She just hauls ass everywhere barefoot. So. I'm going to have to find some kind of super pale toned booties or ballerina slippers or something. Other than that... Leech Woman was fun. The lenses sucked after a couple hours, but I think I could've relieved some of that with some drops. Next time!

Oh! And one last thing before I go to bed... it's 2AM =\ 
I got my shirt in finally! 


 I ordered this shirt because the message on it really resonates with me.
Every time I go to a con as the Bride, I feel sort of out of place. I see other horror cosplayers around, in smaller doses, so I don't feel as bad, but this shirt is like a personal reminder to me to Cosplay whatever the fuck I want!! hahaha ;)


 It's really light, and the best part... it's a v-neck. So I don't have to cut it! Yay! And it's super cute and fitted.


Also, I want to say a personal thank you to Jarod's mommy for sending me the really pretty black top. It's very lovely, and I know I'll wearing it coming the winter months when it gets a little cooler out. It's super appreciated. Thank you both :)

If you'd like to get one, you can order them from here; Jarod: Nwbzpwnr
That's Jarod, the South Park "That which has no life" cosplayer! 
As you can see, they come in different styles. It doesn't have to say "fuck" on it like mine does, lol.
He's a great dude, and it spreads a really awesome message.
Whoa... my ear just filled w/ invisible air and started ringing....
okay it stopped. That was weird.
Anyway... yeah! Go order one. :D


And yes.. the next post will be all about Son of Monsterpalooza ;)

NEXT WEEKEND; LONG BEACH COMIC CON :D
I will be there as Leech Woman on Saturday, and as myself on Sunday accompanied by Fett going as Tingle. So those of you who think can make it out... come find us! I puke Nibbles on you ^_^ 

*bleugh*
