Dragcon, and overwhelming exhaustion

Added 2018-05-15 22:14:35 +0000 UTC

Hey everyone, I just wanted to give you all an update on life. Titania has been staying with me for almost 2 weeks now, and we have been pulling 12-16 hour days from last Tues until yesterday. We were sewing, mending, washing, pricing, driving to the LA convention center, doing booth set up, doing back up runs, having prints made, have business cards made, running to office depot for receipt paper and counterfeit pens....but...we did our first large scale event for 2 Girls, 1 Closet. It was so much fun, but I haven't felt this level of exhaustion in a long time. We are still reorganizing breakdown and shipping things back to Wisconsin for Titania. As far as the actual convention...er conventions (did I mention we also did Adultcon), it was a riot. Friday was preview night at Dragcon, lots of shoppers with our costumes and vintage clothing, and did I mention everyone was spectacularly dressed? Killer outfits. Saturday there were so many attendees, but less shopping was happening. People were too excited to meet the drag queens. Trixie Mattel (the winner of last season's Dragrace Allstars) came into our booth and said we were doing "the lord's work"...I don't think we could have asked for a better compliment. I just started working on my patreon prints for this month, so I'll have them out in the next couple of days.
