There's always a post or few about "sorry I was gone so long" and this should be one of them, but I'm not going to do it. Nope. Not even with that title. I just did it to tease you (or annoy you...whichever the case may be).
The convention was a great day. I wish I could've gone for the whole weekend, but I honestly don't think it would have been worth the money for more than the one day I went. It's not that the panels weren't good, because they were great - mostly because of Candace's friends being the fun people they are - it was just that the dealer room was REALLY sub-par this time. I don't know why. Maybe it's that I didn't find too much of what I wanted or maybe...aww heck. I really don't know. I just felt cheated dealer room-wise. Meh. Had a good time in artist's alley having portraits drawn, which was interesting. Our costumes were perfect, absolutely perfect. They fit well and looked great, except for Candace's wig. I hated that it made her head hurt. I need to find a good replacement wig for her so she can enjoy when we wear them again. Oh, and another bad part about only going with the two of us was that we didn't think to get pictures of ourselves! I loved the way our costumes looked, but there weren't many opportunities to take pictures for ourselves. Boo. Oh well. Maybe we'll do a cosplay "School Rumble" photoshoot with our "sister from a different family," Kenya. I've never done a photoshoot before and Candace is a pro. I wonder what it will be like! I have a funny feeling I'll be laughing a lot because Candace and Kenya keep me in stitches; their interplay is WAAAY too funny.
Ugh. I feel so off. I've been sick this whole week and the cold/sinus infection is finally leaving me, but it's taking its sweet time, leaving me snotty and funny-sounding in the process. One good thing about it is that Ryan and I have been taking garlic pills to help fight the cold (for me) and prevent it (for him) and they're working, but they have the strange side effect of making us both have quite vivid dreams. It's funny because I was thinking about how much I've been dreaming and remembering it since I started taking the pills and Ryan just out of the blue makes a comment that he's been dreaming (and remembering them) every night since a few days back. I tell him about my theory on the garlic pills and he agrees. Unfortunately, he seems to have nightmares and/or sad dreams and I end up with weird stuff that makes me smile. Different people, similar but differing reactions. Huh.
I think I need to go swimming to set me straight again. It's the start of summer and I've yet to go in the water since the 21st. I know that's a factor for some of this off-ness. Hopefully I'll get the chance this weekend if the dreary weather lets up. If not, I'll jump in a full bathtub to help alleviate this wrong. That'll do.
I Wants: I want to see a ghost sometime soon because I have a few questions to ask; I want a silver blue definitely-not-new-but-nice-looking-and-shiny Kia Rio (with A/C) to begin the Duran Duran mobile; and I want to be able to finish my fanfiction so I can satisfy that one freaking reader who is great and consistent, but kinda pushy about updates!
