Confessions from the Con Floor – What Was I Wearing?
Although most of my memories at SDCC bring back visions of me in a head to toe padded black Darth Vader suit, I actually did get around to wearing some of my fun geeky stuff on the con floor! These are the times I get to wear my favorite geek chic items (and maybe ones that I feel like I can’t wear to work) and I love it. If you’re wondering what I was wearing when not being Lady Vader,…

DIY Geeky iPhone 5 Cases
I recently got an iPhone 5 and as clumsy as I am, I knew the first thing I would need to do was find a protective cover. I was under the impression that my furry Chewbacca case for my iPhone 4 did not come the newer size (although later found out later that they finally came out with the iPhone 5 version) and after much shopping, I was disappointed in the online selection of cases. However, I came across an…
