HEY SPOILERS NIGHTVALE WAS AMAAAAZING. I learned I could probably handle a few centipedes. I heard FANTASTIC music. I got to be part of a crowd full of amazing people and wonderfulness. There was barhopping afterward, and reconnecting with old friends, and great conversation -- the night was a definite success.
The next day was a ball of madness, but today has been a success as well. Had some lovely folks over for beer and cupcakes and painting, and it was the delightfullest.
(It was amazing. The entire night was amazing.) OH YEAH GUESS WHO GOIN TO NIGHT VALE
Also EVEN MORE awesome plans this week, just all the fuck over the place ALSO GUESS WHOSE PHONE HAS BEEN DEAD ALL DAYYYY D:
Guess who has a really long, overdue post of awesome stuff you need to see
Seriously though, why didn't anyone inform me of this
Thank you, Dandy.
I just started it, so this is based purely on title (and in that sense echoing an aspect of the same satisfaction I get from Wizard Barristers), but: I love that there exists a show called Bodacious Space Pirates. I just fucking love that someone can ask me what the hell I'm watching and that's what I get to respond with. Oh, Japan: thank you.
PARFATE
TWINKLE
"Derp."
A little predictable setup-wise so far, but as you can see it has some real gems. Hey, speaking of anime: more like no game no waifuamirite?!
I was reading some stuff the other day that got me thinking about this lecture about desire, and this lecture about Simone de Beauvoir.
Bonds. Human Bonds. *drinks martini*
Dear cars, please be careful of bikers -- we are not pedestrian-squishy, but we are still pretty squishy (I'm ok, just had some close calls today).
For some reason there is a picture of a lobster on my desktop. I bequeath it (once more) unto thee, The Internet.
THIS SHOW IS GREAT. It takes its time (as good things do), but I found it worth the investment. Also I baww'd and my heart is made of coldest stone, etc. Soooooooo....
That's about it, I guess. I have other tales from this bizarre week, but they are not for you, The Internet. They are not for you.
Man, I got a lot of (direly needed!) hours at work this week; even outside of work this week was crazy busy! And next week is going to be crazy busy too, thanks to all kinds of plans?! Who is this and what is happening
Probably a short post (I'm beat, and I have to get up early to run errands/send some emails), but I'll mention that plans include potential collaborative art plans! Woop woop!
Here are some pictures. I'm sorry about the lack of updates/drawings :c Soon I will have some more project time! Sooooooon
We have this book at my store! I think I may have to get it now O_O
Oh hey what is up the future.
I, for one, welcome our new Ice-9 mummy overlords (with a selection of delicacies fresh off the printer).
I unintentionally passed out for awhile because I was just that tired -- I got about 2 hours of sleep and biked home around 1...Next year I'm packing better (OMFGTOOTHBRUSH)! I might save up for a room, or see if someone wants to split one, too -- that seems like it'd be a lot easier, and I could have people by for drinks and/or hangin out :3
I lost my Squid Girl keychain ;________;
I met so many wonderful people. I had a couple of people recognize my character, too! :D THERE WERE SO MANY GREAT COSTUMES! O___O AND I DID NOT TAKE PICTURES ;___; I was too scared of my phone dying, as it was crucial to finding people, and the charger doesn't have a plug right now and arrrrgggghhh
I need to email Brittany; I didn't make it back up to see her ;_; Man, those art rooms are kind of cramped, too -- granted, I was maneuvering a backpack in them, but a lot of them couldn't fit many people very well.
I ended up having a lot of fun in the video room -- had a really good time riffing on a CG movie with a gent (M..Mike? I shoulda given him a card :c ); we were both really tired, and it was a pretty silly movie, so that was fun -- I also met up with a couple of guys in the wee hours and ended up in there again chatting about anime and waifus X3 And I met awesome people at Cards Against Boise! YOU GUYS, I MET AWESOME PEOPLE ALL OVER THE PLACE
I am still really tired, and still very sad that I have no pictures :C There were geisha and furries and schoolgirls and ghost busters and lolita and titans and survey corps and a ton of homestuck and ponies and disney and just...just SO MANY WONDERFUL THINGS. I didn't want it to end :c Maybe I can make it to the other cons coming up this year -- but I have a family reunion sometime in August, and I'm kind of stupid broke atm so we'll see.
Hurrburr. I'm leaving out a ton, I know -- but I think I'm going to go watch a movie and possibly pass out again.
My kind of people.
They're all right with me
P.S. Let it henceforth be known that green tea kitkats are the greatest fucking thing ever.
I'm taking a break at the bar for a few -- I was starting to feel burned out by all the people, so I figured I'd kick it solo for a bit before I head upstairs for Cards Against Humanity :3 I need to take more pictures! I only have one so far, of a Celty (from Durarara) cosplay -- which was fabulous, in case you were wondering. I'll try to take some more tonight though! In the meantime, I'm going to drink this beer and watch some Retsupurae (if the internet cooperates)
Have I mentioned cons are super fun?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Everyone I've met so far has been awesome and accepting, and... just lovely, really. What a delightful time ^___^ Oh! And I made a shirt, which I wore today :D
I think they got lost...We really need to find them -- I mean, I ALREADY FOUND ALL THE YAOI BECAUSE IT IS EVERYWHERE. WHERE MAH YURI AT
Man, I crashed out of AO. I haven't made it to a lot of the events, unfortunately... a portion of today may have been wasted on aimless wandering courtesy of my own dumb shyness -- until folks started showing up in the evening, and then stuff got awesome! I'm going to try to remedy that shyness thing tomorrow. ZA PAYPAH AIRPLANES ARE A GO. Also, apparently people love you if you give them candy, sooo...I'm not going to argue with that. :D

I got kinda sick at the end, unfortunately, and had to bail on Cards Against Humanity :c That really sucked, because I was having an awesome time -- if they're playing tomorrow I'm going to bring our set from home to help out. Anyway, I went and passed out in the video room(?) a bit, which helped -- though hopefully tomorrow I can pack a slightly softer backpack. Also, less to drink as well as more caffeine, earlier: I think that is a good plan.
I did make friends with the bartender (I think most of the hotel staff is kind of bewildered by the AO folk? Or they love us. It varies). I hope that doesn't sound really pathetic, because he's a very cool guy -- I guessed what book he was looking for, and got to share one I'd brought along as a prop :3
Ohman. I met so many people this weekend O O
And tomorrow is going to be even crazier! I need to bring more suckers; those were a hit. Maybe next year I can do bookmarks or something to give out :D Ohshit! And I need to remember to hand out business cards! Ch...check out my card thing? It printed weird, but I didn't check it on the better monitor, so that's probably my fault :/ Derp.
