Pre-Mega meet and Yellow fairy

So I'm still pretty calm about the mega meet... it's a good few weeks away, but we haven't made anything since Puddle so I'm starting to get nervous.  Plus it's in Chicago this time which is disappointing.  Originally, mom's dog was supposed to have her puppies like... between now and when the meet is, so mom wasn't going to be able to come... Yea Dog isn't prego.  Little punk's been pretending to be prego to get the extra fuds.  Ok so maybe she doesn't understand it but yea, it's what it feels like.  So bad news, No puppies.  Good news mom gets to come with to the meet.

Not much else going on.  Still need to finish Fig's wig (heh) and I have a yellow skinned fairy burning a hole in my brain.  Like... Yellow skin, and burgundy hair... She's lovely in my head.  Starting to try and decide what she'd have for a wig, and that's a dangerous road.   Does she have a fluffy wig?  A home spun wig like it's dreads?  Is it home town dreads?  Maybe it's all little knots of regular yarn... IDK!!  I'm trying not to look at flowers... Cus I -saw- a flower... Have I talked about this yet? I don't care.  I found this Dahlia... I think that's how it's spelled... But I found it at Pecks and was like O.O OMG I LOVE IT!  it's got almost redish leaves... a dark center and a lovely yellow petals that curl slightly... It's lovely.  Well turns out it's a "new" flower... So "Dahlia"  is the "scientific" name for it and about a dozen other Dahlias...  Sooo that won't work... And I'm so sad about it... cus it's so pretty... And wouldn't you know it?  My dumb ass is out there, googling yellow flowers... See... It can't just be -Any- flower.  It has to be the -right- flower.  It has to be yellow, with dark, preferably redish leaves... it has to be native to Australia or africa... and it has to be lovely.  So far, I have Dietes bicolor which is the african Iris... So name wise she'd be "Iris"  which is ok but not great... but the flower is -really- pretty.  OOooor Eucalyptus preissian which is the Bell-fruited Mallee.... And name wise that's absolutely intensely awesome... But the flower lacks a little... It's kinda like a yellow koosh ball... I mean the leaves are dark green and red, the yellow is the perfect color... The flower is kinda... Masculine?  If this was supposed to be a boy it would be totally fine... but it's clearly a girl name, and in my mind it's a girl...

But this is dragging on... I've documented my ideas and well... they aren't perfect.... so the search will have to continue at a later date/
