Welcome to Pixyland

At first it was just weird, but then I recognized people (metaphorically speaking) and all was answered. When seen alone, the Pixyland Peter Pan is peculiar at best. He looks a lot like the “Stewart” character from Mad TV. Among friends in costume, he’s much more naturalized. It’s more something you would see at DragonCon… Continue reading Welcome to Pixyland

DragonCon Wrap-Up

As you travel life’s highways, stop and smell the roses…and get a piercing. That’s the advice Con’rs heard, anyway. DragonCon is, as of recent years, a five day event including labor day. The event takes place in Atlanta within the Marriott Marquis and Hyatt hotels (registration was actually taken care of in the Hilton this… Continue reading DragonCon Wrap-Up

DragonCon 2005 (!!!)

Tomorrow (technically, later today) marks our first day attending DragonCon this year. We’re real excited about it. We were very close to getting a hotel room this time, but fell short of the timing. Amy put some really funny Chewbacca pictures into the art show this year. We’re hoping for a real success with those.… Continue reading DragonCon 2005 (!!!)

Earlier in the morning, I had a doctor’s appointment to attend to. While I was there, I took the opportunity to ask April, the lady I usually… Continue reading Pod People

She has been getting her work into the DragonCon art auction for a few years now and she really loves it. I enjoy seeing her get into these… Continue reading A Day in the Life of Chewbacca

Dragon*Con – Saturday

Our first day at Dragon*Con was pretty good. It feels a little different having a baby with grandma while we’re out. We hope to have him along by this time next year, but he probably won’t be interested in spending the week just yet. We’re heading back tomorrow late in the afternoon. We have to… Continue reading Dragon*Con – Saturday

Satyr Costuming

Amy is working on a photography project for DragonCon 2004. I don’t want to give anything away before the gallery is opened, but I’ve provided some pictures of our costuming efforts on me. I tend to get dressed as a satyr with some frequency, so I’m getting used to it. Satyr – Wikipedia, the free… Continue reading Satyr Costuming
