Erg....endless apologies once more for not updating more often.

I've been doing a lot of editing/proof-reading this summer as well as training to become an aerial instructor...so I've had a lot more on my plate than usual. Which...for a workaholic...is really quite a lot.

By the way, it really irks me when some people try to relate to my busy schedule and compare it to their own. Trust me, the vast majority of people don't really know what busy is. (And should be thankful of that!) For the past two months, I have not even had a moment's rest to be able to respond to text messages or even glance at my e-mail. Yes, I literally have been so busy that the mere thought of taking a minute or two to respond to a single text message was stressing me out beyond belief. My life has been a very careful and delicate system of balancing responsibilities, hobbies, and projects.
I am thankful to have a very understanding group of friends. I feel terrible that I often disappear for weeks and months at a time but I think it is awesome that the majority of my close friends don't make a big deal of it.

Anyway, to catch you all up I shall do a quick pic/description post. After all, aside from all the work I've been doing, I did manage to take a few trips and have some fun.

Back in July, I spent a week with Cherry in Vancouver:







There are a ton of other pics as well as more info about that trip on my blog.

My Quidditch team is still prepping for the World Cup in NYC in November. We had team jerseys made and they turned out really awesome!



We had a slight scare when we found out that the IQA is really enforcing the "at least two girls on the field at all times" rule but we finally got a bunch of girls to try out the past two weeks. I'm hoping we should be okay for the World Cup.

I also recently got back from Pennsic. (Which, in a nutshell, is a really huge medieval reenactment event that lasts for two weeks.) I currently "play" as an early period (I'm thinking Gupta) Indian woman from the region of Andhra Pradesh.









Again....there are a TON of pictures and information about the event on my blog. Sorry if it seems like I am "whoring" out my site; that is truly not my intention. I am honestly just strapped for time and getting a bit tired right now.

Also, I am finally in the process of editing and having the effects done on a set that Bob and I shot back in April. As for the subject matter...I'll give you three hints:
- "Amok Time"
- "Blood Fever"
- "Bounty"

Here is a teeny, tiny sneak peek (without the final ship and background effects)--->
