Bits and pieces

One sentence description of Fallout 3: Oblivion for the Atomic Age.
F3 is turning out to be a lovely game. It's a fair bit more confusing than Oblivion. For example, instead of just needing a repair hammer to fix things, you have to find similar items. If you want to fix your sword, you have to find knives. That sort of thing...I guess. The game is of no help. I have NO idea how to fix clothes. >_< So far I like it, but I've died several times already, which gets annoying. I'm sure once I figure things out I'll enjoy it more. ^_^ I'm debating on restarting the game, since I'm really not that far in. I also screwed up a few quests early on, as I tend to do. *le sigh*

I'm trying to hold off on going to lunch until noon. I want to retrain my stomach, but I'm not having much luck. It wants to eat when it wants to eat. At least I remembered to bring snacks today.

Thanksgiving feels like it's just around the corner. As soon as Halloween is over, the holidays seem to come crashing in. I hate how there are already Christmas commercials on TV. Dang it! Gimme my Turkey Day! *grumbles* Yes I know it's an excuse to take time off and eat way too much food, but I <3 it.

This MUST be done!

A number of times it's been mentioned that someone should put together a 'The Worst Witch' costume group. I can think of at least two times within the last 6 months it's been written about on LJ. Well, the time has come.

I'm starting a TWW costume group.

I'll let that sink in...

Done? OK! Let's get started! First I need to clarify what movie/series we're doing. Since the HBO movie is what I remember, we're going to do with that. Besides, it's got f'ing Tim Curry. Dude! However, I have no complaints with adding in characters from the later stuff. The more the better!

And now, the character list...

Mildred Hubble (our star)
Ethel Hallow (the antagonist)
Maud Moonshine (the star's bff)
Miss Hardbroom (deputy headmistress)
Miss Cackle (headmistress and totally claimed by ME because I can ;P)
Agatha (Miss Cackle's evil twin sister. Woot!)
The Grand Wizard (two words, Boo YEAH!)

I'm sure there's lots more, but I'm doing this a work and can't research much. I've already put the movie on my Netflix list. ^_^

Oh, and if you have no freaking clue what I'm dorking about, go here for X-Entertainment's breakdown or here for Wiki's generic info.

BTW, since I have two costume cons (Dragoncon and Katsucon), this list is open to both. Yay duplicates! And no, I'm not insisting this happens for Katsu since it's a few months away. I just want to get the ball of awesomeness going. Yeehaw!
