OK! Time to update!



ZOMG! Acen fucking rocked!



We left on Friday morning at around 10 AM (later than last year, damn you Kyo for taking your sweet granny-ass time) and got there around quarter to 12 PM. I played with the thought of taking a nap whilst waiting for gishimpish, but it would be a couple hours before he landed so I just got dressed and took off with Dan and Wee. I don't have any pictures of my costume right now, but I will soon! I promise! They had to wait in line to get their badges, so I called Kyria to go meet up with her. She was working a booth and I had trouble finding her, but Danyelle saw me walk past and jumped me. I hung out with them for ..a bit and I finally met Matt and he's damn nifty. He kept switching accents just cause normal English is boring, and he taught me how to say "I want some spaghetti" in Italian. I don't remember it, but he taught me . Then I got the call, my lovely had landed . I went back to the hotel to wait and talked to some nerdy guy who was hitting on me. He was kinda gross . I saw the shuttle pull up and my bleach blonde giant stepped out and I was all ohmuhgodohmuhgodohmuhgod! I'm getting butterflies just thinking about him again (in case everybody hasn't picked it up, gishimpish is the giant I refer to). So we went back to the room to set down bags and went not then headed off to get his badge. As we got in line, I get a call from Dan telling me that he's still in line. This is roughly three hours after they originally got in line. Damn. We finally got to the line inside the dealer room, and by this point, my feet are killing me. Whilst in Line-con, we held up our arms for amusement. Yay for Line-con! After about 3-4 hours of being in it, he finally got his badge (I had mine mailed to me); back to the room and out to dinner we go. At that point, Denny's was the only place open. I got a rocket cup (I'll get a picture of it later). Then we just went back to the hotel and passed out around midnight.



We all woke up around 9 and decided to just wear normal clothes and go shop the dealer room. Me being the toy whore I am, I was drawn to every small plastic thing and plushie I saw . I shall document the ones I purchased at some other time. Here are the four pictures I managed to take the one time I actually had my camera with me:

I promise you guys more pictures once I collect them from other people .
Then gishimpish and I headed on back to the room to get dressed up. After a few hours of wandering around, we went back to the room to get dressed up for the rave. Dan and I painted ourselves with UV paint; I had a paupou fruit on me arm . Around 2 AM, we went back to the room to pass out.



We got up around 10 on Sunday and packed. We wandered around the dealer room a bit more then sat by the snacks waiting for Kyo and Danyelle to meet us so we could leave. I didn't wanna leave muh impish! I hope I get to come see you soon, baby ! I really wanted to stop at Mitsua, a Japanese market in Shaumburg, but Kazoo told us to go the wrong way and we ended up going to Chinatown instead. SO WORTH IT! It happened to be Buddha's birthday and we prayed to him and wished for the world to be a better place. We had yummy food and browsed little shops. I got a tea brewing mug for muh mommy for Mother's Day and a lucky cat to stick on my dash... under my masturbating skeleton named Al. Got back to Kyria's around 8, and Dan and I let there around 9. Overall, life is fucking great .
