things I need to do within the very near future (i.e., before I leave for ECCC on Feb. 27), which means I should do several of them this weekend, which means somehow I need to PRIORITIZE and MAKE DECISIONS and *incoherent screaming*

  • Finish all my cosplay stuff
    • go to Michaels for at least a few more things and try not to get hopelessly sidetracked
    • find everything from my old Abigail Marston cosplay
    • Avengers Academy Loki
      • go to Walmart to pick up the pool cue I plan to use for the staff
      • figure out how to cut it down so its two component pieces will fit in my suitcase (also, figure out whether I can somehow stick to a carry-on or take a checked back like I usually do)
      • add embellishments of some kind so it actually looks like his staff
      • figure out what shoes to wear, and also socks/leggings/something
      • lots of stuff with the blazer: rip out the shoulder pads, adjust the shoulders somehow, add fur to the collar, replace the buttons, add epaulettes 
    • AoU Wanda
      • cut down boots
      • figure out jewelry
    • modern Wonder Woman
      • test hot glue on my red Wanda jacket to see if it’ll come off
      • make the tiara/hat
      • make whatever embellishments I’m going to use on the jacket and then I guess bring a glue gun with me
      • find or make a gold rope-like belt
  • go to Planet Fitness at least once
  • see Black Panther, ideally with @erlkonigstochter, but otherwise probably with my dad which means figuring out how to suggest it while still getting him to pay for it
  • write…something. anything (well, anything from this list)
  • try not to get dehydrated (probably too late)
  • finish at least one Etsy commission that’s due soon, and the other too if I can since it’s probably easier
  • go to Value Village tomorrow for their 50% off sale to look for yet more jeans and also a few final cosplay pieces
  • semi-related: haul out our barely functional sewing machine and attempt to patch the jeans I already have that fit well but also have giant holes in the inner thigh
  • leave more voicemails for my dipshit legislators
  • at least look at the ECCC schedule and start figuring out what I want to go to, which I definitely should have started doing earlier
  • also plan with @erlkonigstochter whatever else we want to do in Seattle, because we probably won’t have time for a lot but I know there are at least a few things I want to see
  • I’m almost sure there’s something else I’m forgetting

well

I guess I could’ve done worse

I have LESS THAN A WEEK to do…basically all of this

Ha Ha Ha why do I do these things to myself
