    when i was kawaii

    I had a convention dream last night for the first time in ages… got to katsucon on thursday, spent the night, and in the morning got up to put on tohru and it wasn’t finished. I was so upset I was shaking! I don’t know what brought that on. I haven’t had con dreams like that in a long time,…

    when i needed a con fix

    Saw Matrix 3 last night – it was ok. I guess my main problem was that I had been spoiled on the entire thing a couple of months ago. I need a convention fix! The only one anytime soon is numa rei no con in december and I still haven’t found anybody to go with me. I have a project…

She also cleaned my plugsuit and got those stains off of it, too. -Almost finished with my quidditch cloak. the sweater lady FINALLY called and said she’d have my sweater…

    when i dropped an ice block

    Couple of things today: *BAD weather last night – lots of hail and lightning and thunder like all night. I woke up this morning to find out a tornado hit Jackson where my grandparents live. My grandparents are OK but ALL of the windows on the back and left side of the house were broken (and that’s a lot of…

    when i went fansub crazy

    Today I have got to take care of a few things, replying to LJ replies and mail and that kind of stuff. I have a few errands to run. Y’know, whenever I’m at an anime convention, I always feel bad cause I’m just not INTO it. I mean, like, I hadn’t watched ANY anime in months before katsu. But afterwards…

    when the moms wanted to go to dragoncon

    Last night Ash’s parents came over to go out with my parents to eat. I was looking through the dragoncon schedules I’d printed out so I showed it to them. They see a lot of stuff they’d like to have seen, and mom’s like, asking me to go to these Anne McCaffrey or whatever panels. I’m like, there’s no time!…

    Last night I woke up at 4 AM. I don’t know why. I was kinda freaked out. I was sleeping in the living room, cause my cousin is over this week and he was in my room. So I got up and made my cousin switch places with me. It still took me an hour to fall asleep after that,…
