That would be sweet. I'm thinking about ditching Santa Albel....too much work....not enough time x.x

Maybe I'll get my dad to bring down the rest of the material and finish it. I would love to do it but.....I don't seem to have enough time.....and I left the materials at home....again

alright as for time I was thinking about noon or 11 what ever works best with everyone else. I'll have a time set in stone by the end of this week.

I think we should meet up....I guess at the skating rink would be fine. I plan on doing the gift exchange first though.

you WILL need money to skate. I believe it is $9 total. Also if you want to get food bring more.

by bringing all the gifts do you mean for your person (if you participate in the secret santa) and the ones that you got for other people....I would say yes. Especially to the secret santa part.

I'll have to get some extra money from my mom but it should work out all fine.

Ok so I'll have to put everything in a huge bag cuz I have ALOT of gifts I have to give people. I think practicaly everyone will get gifts.....x-x Well Im not exactly sure what the secret santa is tho.

secret santa is you get a name of one person and then you get that person a gift, but that person doesn't know who gave them a gift, and someone will have you. ;D

yeah it is a lot of fun. After everyone gets their gifts we can try to guess who our Santa is then I'll tell people ^_^

And you will put gifts in a big bag or something so they can't tell who gave what based on the wrapping.

I saw reindeer because there is going to be lots of santa's

Seeing how most people are ok with going on the 13th I am not going to change it. Plus I would have to schedule time off work if I were to change it and I need all the money I can get.

That will be too bad if you can't make it but the date is set for the 13th.

Some people really don't understand. I get it from my boyfriend from time to time. My parents' accept it with as much grace and patience as they can muster (which is a lot), and they get excited when they see my costume really come together. I was surprised how much my mom told her friends about Davy Jones. Normally I think it's a quiet subject around my household.

Perhaps what might be best is if you talk to her about going to a cosplay picnic, a small event with a relatively small amount of people in it, together. To make her more comfortable, it might be best if you went in normal dress. You could introduce her to us and get her to talk to us to see that we're not the fetish cosplayers who do, erm, things in costume and that we just do it for fun and to express love for a show or character. I'd be willing to talk to her as Davy Jones. I consider my life outside of cosplay to be exceedingly normal. Cosplay is just the spice that makes my life more challenging, creative, and fun.

If it wasn't for cosplay, after all, my grandma's gift of a sewing machine would have just gone to waste. I love my sewing machine so much :3 I sew normal stuff, too! Like... like pants!

EDIT: By the way, I don't think going behind your mom's back would help anything. She might be pissed if she found out.

My parents are about the same way. They actually seem to like that I have taken up a hobby and it is still weird to hear that they tell their friends about the costumes I have made

I hope you can go KFC but you really don't want to make your mom mad by trying to do so >_>

Or what if she met a few of us outside of cosplay? That would take away from the distraction of being in costume. We could bring in pictures of us in costume. Anywho, just trying to be helpful.

The Christmas meet-up would be a good way to show that we're a friendly, accepting crowd. A slightly weird crowd, but hopefully the safe side would win her over.

For the gourd, I was talking this over with a friend, and I'm not sure how well it'll work, BUT I was thinking heavily paper mache (or rigid-wrap) two different work out balls or playground rubber balls, one more deflated than the other for the size different. Afterwards, use a glue wash and roll in sand to get a sandy feel. I don't know how well it'd stick, but I imagine if you'd use a matte fixative it'd help out a lot.

Painting the details my be hard, though.

Just a thought. I've never tried it, but that's how I'd do it if I cosplayed Gaara. You can get a string of lights to drape around it to make it christmas-y, too :D Or a gourd shaped sack of "presents"
