It's been another week in our lives and now, this upcoming week will be just as difficult as the last. When did we become adults?
But, we still made time for our TV shows, obviously. We take any mental break we can get. Most of our Korra watching is full of us breaking out our "big sister voices" when Korra is burning yet another, really valuable, bridge to yet another person who loves her. Sleepy Hollow made me want to never sleep again (and McKenna agrees with me), that Sandman was creepy. I don't know about you, but I could watch an hour of Crane trying to figure out modern technology and trying to figure out our crazy modern government. SHIELD was good, still not over how precious Fitz is! And how about that awesome cameo! (Better cancel the fishtank). I also plowed my way through Supernatural season 8 on Netflix in preparation for season 9 which premieres this week. I still don't know what my feelings are doing after that...
So, that's another week in the life of Morgan and McKenna, now we just have to deal with midterms galore! Wish us luck!

Things are Eska-lating Quickly!
So, papers, tests, quizzes, and life as college students in general has really hit us hard. We are at that point in the semester when things are going full steam ahead and we have had hardly any time for ourselves.
Ok, on with the good things. Legend of Korra started up again, which was super exciting for us both! Things are ESKAlating quickly (see what I did there?). Also, Agents of SHIELD looks super promising, especially if they keep the heavy doses of Joss Whedon's snark and all the references. Did anyone else freak out when they saw Shepherd Book? Because I did, I'll admit I screamed "BOOK!" at my TV. Thank goodness my roommates weren't home, that would have been difficult to explain...We have started watching Sleepy Hollow as well. I hope it does well, the first two episodes held promise.
Anywho, that is an update to prove we are alive and the shows we are watching and hopefully, we'll talk about them on a weekly basis ftom now on.
Thanks for reading my rambles!

Dragon*Con photos!
Sylvester McCoy (Radagast), Graham McTavish (Dwalin), and William Kircher (Bifur) from The Hobbit.
Natalia Tena, also known as Tonks from Harry Potter and Osha from Game of Thrones.
The one photo we had taken of ourselves. (After we couldn't get into the Agents of SHIELD panel, boo...)
You can't really tell, but I am straight up cheesin' for these next two pictures because I really love otters! (Also, we felt the need to take pictures with otters, for Otter!lock reasons)
He moved right as I took the picture..
I forgot my flash was on...sorry, sleepy otter!
McKenna looks like she is telling a scary story.
We really enjoyed the dramatic reading of Star Wars in the style of Shakespeare.
We had a fantastic time at Dragon*Con, and I wish I had more pictures to prove it. Ah, c'est la vie. Anyway, hoped you enjoyed the pictures.

So, A Brief Look into Dragon*Con...
But anyways, we had a ton of fun at Dragon*Con. Hopefully when our lives slow down again, we can talk more about what we saw and did. However, Morgan and I can both agree that these two ladies below...

Life is Difficult
Ok guys. Unfortunately, Morgan and I manged to get a hotel with no wifi, and if that wasn't bad enough, our blog wasn't recieving the text updates that we were sending it. Boo!!! Because of these circumstances, we will not be able to post videos during the Con. Please bear with us, as we will post everything when we go back home.
In addition, Morgan and I had technical diffculties with the car cam, so that didn't happen according to plan either. Oops. But we won't give up just yet! We are here to have fun this weekend, and fun is what we are doing.
Today has been a busy day already, but Morgan and I are starting to realize how small the Sherlock fandom is in America, or at least the south. From the reactions we have seen so far, only about 10 people have recognized us as "Sherlock and John". It makes us a little sad, but as stated before, we are still enjoying ourselves with all the panels. So suck it! (via psych)

Fandoms and Hair Dye
Besides that bit of chaos, Morgan and I are fully prepared as of now! We have determined which outfits look go together, how to pose for pictures, and have our cards to give out so that we can get a copy of the pictures anyone takes. And, of course, we are so pumped to just be going.
Guys, this is it! It's Dragon*Con Time!

It's Getting Closer!
My hope is that we meet some people who truly enjoy our cosplay and that we have tons of fun. Also, our first video should be coming up soon, most likely Wednesday or Thursday, so if you are interested, there will be a link on the blog page, and it will be up on Youtube too.
Another thing coming to the blog is a segment we like to call "Frozen Yogurt and Body Counts". This started as a wondering of how many bodies actually pile up in TV shows. We started with the 3rd season of Teen Wolf, which had 14 (or 215, if you count the Glen Capri suicides) total deaths. I recently got McKenna to watch Merlin with me (I've seen up to the 4th season, but know all that happens anyway...stupid Tumblr and Pinterest) and we'll tell you the first season tally when we complete it soon. Hopefully, this can be a recurring thing in our blog!
See you soon!
