Holy hell, it has literally taken me like an hour to get this entry going. First I had to upload my Comic Con photos and that turned into a catastrophe and I've finally done it. The moral of the story is that I should really get my laptop fixed because all the pain I mentioned would have not happened. I NEED to. It's just hard because I know it will cost like $200. I just need to bite the bullet and do it! I can't believe it's already almost noon. I am supposed to be hanging out with Irinka soon AND I'M NOT EVEN SHOWERED. ARGH. I hate over-sleeping!

♥ Comic Con was SO overwhelming! I can't believe how many people were there. I grew up in a town of 12,000 people. Large groups of slow-moving people give me anxiety so I didn't walk around very much. Irinka, Dino and I were at the Shocker Toys booth and I had a blast. I met so many super-sweet members and I had a really great time! It was so cool to meet so many people who were stoked on the site.

Small fangirl moments included: Mindy Kaling and BJ Novak (Kelly and Ryan from The Office) on the escalator between me, Irinka & Dino, seeing Seth Green (he came to our booth! He's so tiny!) aaaaand.....

Seeing Lasagna Cat!



I love the site, but it also kind of freaks me out a lot, hence the face I am making. Jon's toupee is frightening in real life.

Sadly, that is pretty much the only photo I have from Comic Con. Almost everything else came out blurry, including the photos I took of Dice, Dino and Irinka on our taco run. Sorry, ladies!

oh! Also, I met up with secretagenman and I think this is a really cute photo of us.



[edit] February just gave me this photo. Thanks so much!<3<3


from Dice's journal:

Me, Irinka, Dino, Dice, Troa and Odette

♥ Another highlight of Comic-Con: meeting Optic_Nerve! I had such a great time

♥ What else? My brain is SO scattered, as I am mega-behind and Irinka is coming over soon so we can play Animal Crossing and go suntan and maybe swim at my pool. I

♥ I am on a pretty strict diet, but I ate cookies for breakfast. It kind of ruins the point of everything but it was so good. My diet is not so much a lose-weight diet, but a be-healthy diet. I am a strict vegetarian--no animal products at all. I cut out soda last August, though I'll sometimes have a couple sips. I stopped drinking in January, but I will taste sips of what Uproot orders sometimes. I am trying to cut out high fructose corn syrup but it is really hard. It's in everything! I'm trying to move away from most dairy and white flours. I have taken to having baby carrots on me almost always, because they are a super-good snack.

♥ Rin-formation: I have a ridiculously hard time with the concepts of 'right' and 'left'. Therefore, I am terrible at giving directions when driving! I don't think I have a learning disability. I know the cardinal directions, I just have trouble with relative directions. I always put my hands in the L and backwards L positions to check if something is right or left and sometimes I still get it wrong, which makes me feel really dumb. I don't know why but I just have a really hard time, unless I concentrate super hard on it. I am pretty smart otherwise so I don't know where this comes from. I imagine it makes me look pretty stupid but I can't/don't know how to help it. I am 23, you'd think I had it down by now.

♥ I am reading this super-interesting book about Gypsies that I bought at Chloe and Trixie's garage sale. What a steal for $1! I know it will be a book I re-read a bunch.

♥ I still haven't fixed my huge backlog of unanswered messages that I mentioned in the last journal entry. (I can't believe I only updated once in July! Shame on me.) I still have 63 on SG and now I'm up to almost 200 unfiled on gmail. SIGH. I so need to get my computer fixed! I want a new DS (I got a secondhand DS. It screen is so fucked up and I want a pink DS Lite) and more tattoos but I think my computer is a vast priority.

♥ I have to go shower so when Irinka comes over she still likes me. I swear I am going to catch up on replying to comments. I just can't believe how busy I have been the past two weeks. I hope you guys still like me. Sometimes I am just hopeless. Okay, off to the shower!!

edit!
I almost forgot to add that SanityLost did a super-cute fan art of me
