Well Anime Punch '09 was a rather interesting and draining experience. The con itself went rather well from what I saw but from talking to several people who came to me for advice it seemed that tensions, stress, and drama were up all over the place ( Read more... )

I was out for most of today and I'm going to be spending the night at the Otaku and heading to the Con tomorrow Morning or afternoon - which suits me fine as most of my detail tends to be overnight ( Read more... )

Well finn_troll come over to meet with Mike and the twins on Tuesday, the talk brought up some house issues I hadn't thought much about (partly because I'm away from the Otaku alot and I've more or less acclimatised to Mike's particular sense of humor since Middle School) and she's probably reconsidering living here.

Part of the time I spent with neilworms trying to find information on a Vietnamese Buddhist Zen Sect which has a temple ( Read more... )
