Not the only thing I had to ad-lib. As I was getting dressed, and my husband was zipping up my skant for me, I noticed something white on the front that looked like the adhesive left behind when you wash something with a sticker on it. Which I would never do with costuming. When I tried to scratch it off, my finger went through! NO clue what it was- my skant was poplin so not moths. There are several spots like that, so it's ruined. Brian said that might mean it's time to get me one with nicer fabric- I said only if he paid for it.
But all was not lost. Luckily I was able to pull out my TOS Dress from Thinkgeek . Submitted for your amusement, some photos from the event :
There were a few things that made pulling off Vulcan hard for me. First, as you can see, I need waaay better ears ( add that to the very long wish list). Second, pot roast. Third, the chicken. Don't ask about the chicken. You had to be there. Fourth, PEOPLE KEPT MAKING ME LAUGH! And last of all, on the way home, The Ramones. I think I'm very far from the Path of Kohlinar.
