I’ve started packing for DragonCon and wouldn’t you know it – I’m wanting to change my costume lineup AGAIN. By this I mean I want to drop a couple of things, and MAYBE finish a new one in their place. I say maybe because it’ll be a lot of work and I have 9 days before fall semester starts.

I have a few new costumes I’m bringing (ok – I made them back in October), so those are staying. I have a couple of repeats – stuff I brought last year and didn’t wear. But now I want to make a whole ass new costume!? I need talking down from that ledge because I am so tempted to just do it.

With that, here’s the tentative lineup:

  • Orca pod
  • Pawnee Goddess
  • Chrissy – Stranger Things
  • Fun in the Sun Qui-Gon
  • Stede Bonnet
  • Aziraphale
  • Punk! Neptune
  • Hobbit
  • Kaylee Frye
  • Mando on Vacation (This is the Lei)
  • Ghostbuster
  • Agatha Harkness
  • Space Pants / Jonathan Comets
  • Princess Leia Wedding Gown???

I’ve already cut out the Ghostbuster, and may cut out Space Pants and Qui-Gon. IDK… I’m trying to think of when to wear them but I just…ehhh. I don’t know. Decisions, decisions.

Hope your packing is coming along much better than mine. See you in 16 Days…
