Oh, God. I'm A Crazy Person

[redbrunja]

I'm clinically insane. That's the only explanation. And you know, this really isn't my fault, I can't be held responsible - this is because of lack of sleep (I do crazy things when I'm sleep deprived, like making rp journals) or the fact that the water was shut off this morning in my apartment (Me last night: I want to wash my hair. Mmmm, better not, there's never hot water at night. Me this morning: *turns on the facet* *no water at all* Oh, you are kidding me.) Oh! Finals. This is because of finals. And I'm still half-sick. Really, I can't be expected to make rational decisions right now.

*takes deep breath*

So you want to know what I'm not doing?

This morning, I did not take screencaptures of Suki's awesome and fiendishly complex outfit.

 

I am not poking around on fabric sites looking at what's available.

I am not looking at pattern sites and thinking, 'hmm, am I crazy, or would that Tibetan Chupa make a good base for her outfit'?

Oh, god, I'm clinically insane aren't I?

Flist, I throw myself on your mercy. 

Help. 

If you could either a.) find and return my sanity

b.) give me the information on cosplay, specifically time/skill/money estimates, ideas on how to make the vest, headdress, arm bracers and detailing.

c.) smack me across the mouth and stick my head into a bucket of ice water.

[ETA: use this and possibly this.

Pretty sure I'm thinking President's Day, because iirc, MLK Day is about a week after I start school.

*grins* It's all about time management. And caffine. (And getting my mom on my side, who was like, "You'll make a gorgeous Suki!" Followed by,"well of course I'll help/this is a good idea."

And you have the special foot, huh? How nice. And the cutting strips/painting sounds like a good idea.

And I had a fairly decent trip home, except for the last flight, where we entered the fifth dimension, where time has no meaning.

Yeah, I figured you were talking President's Day.

Hee, I knew your mom would be in on it. :D

Yeah, it's called a walking foot, and essentially, what it does is lift and pull the fabric along instead of the fabric just sliding underneath it. Very, VERY handy with things like vinyl which just sticks to the machine, or very thick sections, like two layers of vinyl and heavy thick cotton pipping (been there, done that.)

Heh, yeah I think we all hit the fifth dimension on the way home Saturday. XD But glad you made it home safely.

I'm not surprised to hear that I wasn't he only person for whom time was moving at a viciously slow pace.
