I Hope the Boogyman Gets You

Name:
Location: Atlanta, Georgia, United States

Hi! Ok so here's the short version of "This is my Life": Grew up in Moodus, Ct... middle of nowhere with cats, dogs, and horses. I escaped and went to college in Georgia and majored in art. Got dragged back to Connecticut. Escaped again and landed in Atlanta. Don't know how long that will last. I'm still trying to find the place I will live in. I have a sister back in CT, a mother in college and a father elsewhere. I blame my Grandmother for my Art addiction. I learned it from watching her! I love to doodle and paint~ oils mostly~ and I can't think of anything more relaxing then working in the dark room with my headphones wrapping my ears in sweet music. I love to go see the scary movies with friends or sit at home buried in a book. I tend to be shy and quiet till I know you then my dry sense of humor and playful sides come out. For now I'm just going strong single while my friends hook up. I'm looking forward to more adventures in the future and one day hope to actually make money doing something I love OR just sell some painting or photograph of mine for lots o money!

I want to be finishing my costume for Dragon*Con and making my schedule and picking up my weekend pass! AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dragon*Con, here it comes!

OK I cannot tell you how excited I am that it’s that fun time of year again... A time to revel in my geekdom! Embrace my freakiness!! Wings, Horns, Stilts, Storm Troopers, Angels, Demons, Robots~ you name it and you will find it at this fabulous gathering. Cartoon characters, movie stars, artists of all ages. It is the ultimate example of everyone fitting in. I get to be me only better, a veritable SUPER-ME, for 4 whole days as the Science Fiction/ Fantasy crowd invade downtown Atlanta.

I will be the kid in a candy store rushing from booth to booth and panel to panel. I will get autographs and books signed and lots and lots of pictures!!! It will take a week just to recover!

One of my roommates actually got accepted in the juried art show. Go Kathy!!! That will be me next year!
The only thing missing for me is a couple of people… Travis, wish you could go. Ellen I will miss you there too. But next year you and the drool monster have to come! And we have to stay at one of the hotels! AND NEVER SLEEP!!!!!!!!! And Leslie you know I miss you everyday not just on Dragon*Con Weekend! Some day you need to come down for the Con and bring Carys with you so we can dress her up as a cute little fairy!

Where do stupid idea's come from?

Ok, so who thought the movie The Wicker Man should be redone? It along the same level of someone stopping and saying "Hey I'm going to remake Rocky Horror Picture Show." They are both cult classics that don't need to be done again. It's just asking for failure.
I'm having a very Garfield day~ I hate Mondays!
