   Sometimes you just have to make your own fun.

I'm havin' a ball!

Thanks for the comments for yesterday's post. I knew those pictures would illicit a response from you guys! Mwahaha! My evil plan to control your minds by filling them with disturbing images is falling into place!!

Just kidding!

Today was a good day. I have spend the day working on some odds and ends around the house. I don't think I am feeling well enough to leave the house yet. I don't want to push my luck and get sick again. Still a little bit of a cough, but getting better. But since I haven't done too much of anything I don't have much to talk about today. Hmmm, I might just have to share the story I told Shinigami today. Yes Shinigami, you are my muse, don't you feel special!


Bad Luck and Nittle Grasper!

At Anime Expo I was with a group of my friends and we went to the cosplay competition- the Masquerade! The place was packed but since one of my friends works in the industry we were able to sit up front. So in other words we were sitting with all the "suits". The rabid otaku fans were all in the back of the room. I really need to get into the industry so I can get choice seating all the time. Anyway, back on subject. The contestants came on, did skits or just walked around. Then the host asked "Are there Shonen fans out there?!" There is a bit of clapping and a few screams from the otaku bunch in the back. I did my "adult" clamping since I was with all these "grown ups". The host asks again and there is a louder response from the back of the room.

I am sitting there looking around and the host announces over the screams "Let's welcome Bad Luck and Nittle Grasper!!". For just a second I lost my composure and went fangirl. I let out this huge scream and start clapping really loud!!! All my friends around me jump and what made it worse was I was the only one who did that for about 15 rows all around me!! Here is my artists rendition of what it looked like...



How embarrassing. It wouldn't have been so bad if I had been in the back of the room with the other rabid otaku fangirls....but I was up front with these prim and proper people. Oh well. LOL

I didn't ask a question of the day yesterday, can you believe it?!? I guess you guys got the day off yesterday. But not today!!

Have you ever let out a scream/clapped/shouted/laughed...etc and were the only one who did? How embarrassing was it for you? What did the people around you do when you did?

I guess I really don't need to answer this one since I already did! Hope everyone is having a great day and I love ya all!
