Friday

- was 1+hour late to pick up evanae and Jeremy from the airport, followed by more failings with directions, freeways and exits. NAT DRIVE GOOD
- hung out a while in 1422, being somewhat helpful (with Maka's skirt) and mostly ACCIDENT PRONE. Broke my other sickle of my Black*Star kusarigama (I'M LOOKING AT YOU, lachraine), and spilled a big dollop of liquid foundation on the carpet. FULL OF GRACE AND WIN, I AM; thankfully I'm amazing at cleaning up messes.
- while waiting for SE shoot, partook in much dicking around as Black*Star with random_karen's Soul. DUMBFCKBFFS ♥♥♥
- acquired a mirai_noah and went with SE gang to Baja Fresh -- to be greeted with a HERO'S WELCOME. A huge table of con-goers fricken stood up and cheered. o_o Gave 2 B*S autographs, received 2 hugs, and got a free strawberry pocky OHOHO
- back to con center for super sexy night shoot courtesy of ziggybecket! And some more hilarious, delirious douching around with konishii's Soul 8]
- after which I fed naoekun and spent the night in 1422.

Saturday

- partook in a few spontaneous shoots before getting munchies from Pizza My Heart~
- made a mad dash to get into Yamcha for mikage before discovering HAIR EXTENSION FAIL, after which I just used my fabulous wighead hair which worked... amazingly well
- LOL HALF AN HOUR IN DBZ with mikage's Bulma sob
- another dash back to 1001 to powwow with masq skitmates, and it's off to MASQUERADE!
- Rocked our Ueki skit with ensuing, samiamwork and sygmus, and ran on that adrenalin rush for the rest of masq -- which... didn't suck?? (as a whole anyway) as;dlkfj @ Triptych Tsubasa, Pokemans, Black Butler and Zero no Tsukaima. But baww I missed DAT COUCH INNOVATORS T__T
- celebratory Philly cheese steak after masq with skitmates
- 07GHOST SWEATSHOP @ Fairmont 1927 (where most of my time was spent just... douching around, and trying to find the damn vending machine with fullmetal_tora)
- LOL hot chocolate/white costume accident >> pandemonium >> 3 people with Tide-pens frantically attacking one patch of white cloth. About how I said before that I'm amazing at cleaning up messes? I'M KILLER WITH A WET CLOTH, GUYS
- crashed at 07G room lol

Sunday

- 07 Ghost day! Mikage got to play coffee bitch and safety-pin bitch for the clergy (Frau: "THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR JOINING THE MILITARY")
- had a brief shoot outside the church before being told by a bum on an automated wheelchair to "GO BACK TO CHURCH!", then nabbed some more location shots on the way back to con center
- finally got the time to cruise the dealers hall with evanae, and had OMG 2 PHOTOS! taken.
- mad dash to rendezvous with mikage to change into DBZ; half an hour + ton of spirit gum + liquid foundation + Nori diligently yanking down my bald cap every 2 minutes = FAILTASTIC KRILLIN. Sob I got a hug from someone proclaiming Krillin's her favorite sob; spent some time at our AA table reading DBZ comics wow they're really good I want more *_*
- tore that damn bald cap off my head (literally) and changed back into Bulma Yamcha pair >> had an EPIC KAMEHAMEHA-OFF with 2 girls, got chased/pounced by a random Heartless, was asked for a hug by some sign-holding dude who called me Goku (no hugs for you buddy)... and was drive-by threatened by a Vegeta:

Some dude walks by with spiked hair and an M on his forehead: hey we still need to have that showdown sometime
me: oh yeah? bring it
Bulma: --OH SHIT RUN IT'S MY HUSBAND
me: O SHI-- *DOUBLETAKE*

My time in DBZ, short as it was, was... pretty great.

- then we changed into Ennis and Firo for castor's Maiza -- and were stopped for photos/recognized THREE TIMES!!!!!! To celebrate we went for drinks at Tanq 8)
- went to Black & White Ball as Spirit with ziggybecket and evanae + random_karen's SoulMaka; LOLOL FREESTYLE cuz I can't dance ballroom for shit orz

** yeah so I was supposed to use half of mikage's AA table for my comic project, and Authorman was going to be there from Central Cal with free promo merch (posters, T-shirts) to give away; apparently my poster illust (the one I stayed up all night to finish) was so late that Authorman had to make emergency Kinkos prints... which he ended up forgetting at home anyway. FFFFAAAAIL but that's okay, more con time for me \o/

Most of these are grainy and shitty cuz I forgot I had my camera set to ISO 400 T_____T
