As part of my All Con preparations I had to find a pair of large gold hoop earrings since Rose Tyler has a loving affliction for them. I found a pair that I liked and they arrived today, much to my overwhelming relief. Whenever convention time gets close and I have to order something, I always worry that I might have waited too long and it won't make it on time. But this time I was lucky! At the very least it'll remind me to not let things go until the last minute. Still, I think the outfits will look great. My mother and I were shopping a few weeks back and she found a blue zippered jacket that looked nicely close to the "New Earth" one, and while I don't have the time, resources or skill to sew the purple shirt I found one in the same blue colour as the jacket to wear underneath. It's a quick job but it'll do the trick for the convention. I do have to admit that I'm probably looking the most forward to the season four getup.

Last night I made it over to Candice's place after getting off of work at six. Chances were I could have stayed later but I was exhausted after an eight hour shift and a headache was building behind my eyes. My mother had a wonderful dinner made when I got home so eating did help, but the headache kept on nagging. I just kind of sprawled out on Candice's couch and kept her company for awhile while she worked on costuming and things like that. Sometimes it's just nice to relax and take it easy.

Tonight was a different kind from that, mostly with staying at home (albeit happily!) and texting with Kate while watching tonight's episode of House M.D. The show has its incredible ups and downs - not just in characterization but in writing, too - but I've still been too adoring of it for too long to give it up. Whatever ends up happening, I think I'll be watching until its time on Fox runs out.

The rest of this week will be a little trying - I have another test in my law and ethics class on Wednesday and a couple of assignments due for advanced editing - but after that we're hitting the road and going up to Dallas. It's going to be outrageous amounts of fun.
