DX.com. Where to start? This store carries so many different items, it’s crazy! There”s anything from clothes to toys to electrical components to paintings to wigs. Almost all of it is dirt cheap because – of course – this is a Chinese store....

First, really short: My shitty month ended sort of happy – armed with a LOT of antibiotics, I got to go on my vacation, and I borrowed a car, while my own is having its engine replaced. So all is well that ends well. I am going to a convention with my druid...

Yesterday, after a third layer of paint, I think I’ve pretty much finished the headpiece for the druid costume. Only need to solder and attach the circuitry, which will take only a few minutes. That means all that is left of my costume is shoulderpieces (which...
