Updating from CCC with the EeePC! That rhymes, heehee!
So this has been LineCon, totally. The hotel is too small, and the main hallway is narrow even without Artists' Alley in here. I feel bad for people, it's like trying to wade through a sea of smelly humanity. We've done well with our sales, though- made some furniture money! We sold out of a bunch of button designs, including four of our brand new designs. I'm kind of tired of making buttons- we've had to be going pretty constantly to keep up with sales. My arm hurts in this weird spot from the way I've been operating the button maker. -_-
To be fair though, most of the staffers are doing a pretty good job. I just wish they'd scream less.
The rave has finally started (late... same stuff, different con, huh?), so Mike's in main events, and I'm here at the table. Sales are actually still going well, probably because we're pretty much the only people selling stuff still. Interestingly, the number of intoxicated people has gone up dramatically in the last two hours. I ended up talking to this totally high dude for almost 10 minutes about how much he dislikes Death Note. I mean, I'm annoyed with anime's tendency lately for stuff to be "The latest fad omg!!oneeleven!", but he was very... intense about it. Something about an anti-Death Note society. O_o
I guess mostly I'm bored and slightly tired and can't think of anything interesting to write about.
Bleh.
I'm off Monday, for which I am glad.
Oh, we're not coming back tomorrow since we made enough and are sold out of so much. We're going to maybe go to the zoo or the movies. We briefly considered Geauga Lake, but found out that last year was the last season it was open. :(
PS, When did I get old? Seriously, I want to tell half the kids here to get off my damn lawn. When I was their age I had to walk uphill both ways to get anime. And all we had was Mixx manga! And we were happy to get it, too! *shakes fist*
PPS,
Dear L cosplayers (for you seem to be the worst offenders this weekend),
Take a bath and change your fucking clothes. How hard is it to bring more than one shirt to a con?
Love,
Chrissy
