I leave for Gally Wednesday morning. *bouncebouncebouncebouncebounce* On a TRAIN. 36 hours each way on a TRAIN with a little room and fancy parlor car and conductor hats and knitting and...
*deep breaths* And a lot of packing to do tomorrow night, because I have a sleepover date tonight, so tomorrow is It.
Left to do, off the top of my head: Velvet coat (still waiting on mending from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
garillama), psychic paper (need wallet from arjache, create and print a William Hartnell library card), paper bag for jelly babies, all five sonic screwdrivers (get tire pressure gauge from housemate), spare sonic screwdrivers and celeries for con favors, yarn and all necessary needles/hooks for snood/proto-snood/more celeries, manuscript for leather care book I'm marking up for the new flame (I've got to pick a name for him here)...
Oh, and clothes and my toothbrush and swimsuit and little technicalities like that.
I wanted some harder to find things, like Jon Pertwee's terribly stylish pinky ring, but they just needed to be done further in advance. And my blinding Sylvester McCoy jumper will be brought personally to the con because the manufacturer delays cut it wayyyyy too close. *jitter*
The last item that I could use some help with here is my first attempt at dying my hair Christopher Eccleston brown didn't work very well. Can anyone recommend a good brand/line of off-the-shelf hair dye for turning an ash-blond into a dark brown? The kind I used darkened it a shade but mostly turned it redder, despite being marked "neutral" instead of warmer or cooler.
