Ikkicon and, well, not much else.

All we have is here and now. That's why procrastination feels so right. Procrastination isn't the problem, it's the solution.
- Ellen DeGeneres

Greetings All! I thought I might as well post again, considering it’s been about a week or so. Yup yup. Not a lot to say today unfortunately. Or… is that a good thing? You all are probably getting tired of my long posts. I’m sure they’re hard to read and aren’t all that interesting for you. For that I apologize, but I do thank you for your continued visits despite that fact. On with the post!

Ikkicon
This past weekend I had the most interesting convention experience I’ve ever had. Remember that bad chi I was talking to you all about over the summer? Well, it returned. The universe seemed to not want me to go to the convention. I don’t know why. I wasn’t going to let it stop me, but for all those curious about what the universe hit me with, enjoy: unexpected snowstorm which threatened to cancel my flight but ended up delaying it 3.5 hours, almost running out of gas on an Oklahoma turnpike because the one gas station in a 10 mile radius had frozen lines, I forgot my computer power cable back at the dorm so any homework I had to complete over the weekend had to be put off, and the guy whose apartment I was staying at in Austin informed me (through a friend) that I was no longer welcome and had to find someplace else to stay the night before I'm scheduled to arrive. (jerk...) Thankfully, none of that crap stopped me from making it to Ikkicon and having a good time, but it definitely didn’t help. ^_^ Da Caesar is UNSTOPPABLE!

Once at the convention everything went very smoothly though. It was very fun. There were a few panels I went to including a Q & A with the voice actor guests, iron artist, iron artist 18+, and a Beck dubbing panel (at which the first episode in the 2nd volume was unveiled ^_^). Such fun-ness! I dressed up as Kiba again on Saturday. I didn’t get the same kind of reception I’ve gotten in the past, but it wasn’t a bad one. I had a couple people who seemed to follow me around all day because I saw them A LOT. The most interesting costume-related incident happened when I was out of costume. On Sunday I was just dressed in a black shirt, tan cargo pants, my black Converses, an orange cat hat and matching tail. Nothing too outrageous really. Well, there was actually another woman there dressed EXACTLY THE SAME! I thought it was hilarious! We got a picture taken together. I wish I had had a camera, because that would have been fun. Heh heh! She had everything but the tail. The tail was my own. I sewed it myself! Heh heh! Yeah, her hat was in a bit better condition than mine was, but hers hasn't seen nearly as much use as mine. Mine's been quite tortured.

So, the convention was a blast. I came away with the FLCL Ultimate Edition Box Set , a new bag tag of InuYasha lookin’ cute, a keychain of a little chibi Hikaru from Hikaru no Go, the 5th and 9th volumes of Saiyuki, the 2nd volume of R.O.D, and a set of 8 tarot cards with pictures of Bleach characters on them that were purchased for their aesthetic value only (don’t worry Mom, I’m not going to start using tarot cards. It’s not even a full deck. I DON’T want a phone call about this ^_^). All in all it was a good haul! (yay for rhyming!)

Birthday Smack
I celebrated my 21st birthday on Sunday. The people I was attending Ikkicon with knew this fact. So, I was expecting something to happen that day, I just didn’t know what. A little before lunchtime, around 10:30, I was talking with a couple of the guys that were there with me. For some reason, one of them disappeared for a few minutes. I didn’t notice it at first, but when the guy returned, another guy with a yaoi paddle casually walked behind me. I caught on to what was happening right as the guy swung and nailed me hard in the right butt cheek. Stinging. Yeah… it was entertaining for all involved. Yeah, it hurt a bit, but I have to congratulate my friends on their creativity. Thanks for the birthday smack y’all! ^_^

Hilarious!
We were just goofing around on YouTube before anime club a few weeks ago and one of the girls showed the following commercial to us all. So, in the spirit of Super Bowl week and funny commercials, enjoy!

Well, many other things have occurred in the past week, but none of them quite worth mentioning here. So, with that I’ll be done. Ya happy with the shorter post? I hope so, cuz don’t be expecting them to happen too often. ^_^ Have a great day Everybody and I’ll see ya ‘round TheO! Sayonara!
