Jeez, I go away for one weekend and WWIII starts
Edited on Mon Jul-17-06 08:58 AM by TimeChaser
Okay, so the conflict started well before I left on Thursday, and I also deliberately avoided news sources while at the anime con. But still, can't I go away for a weekend without everything going to hell :P

2. It was awsomeX5
Seeing old friends, making new ones, meeting online friends. Running around in costume, going out to dinner in costume. Having my boyfriend with me. Buying more toys :3 Random public cosplaying (in character).

Life is good at conventions :D
