It's a Wrap

On Saturday, The Gryphon and I attended the wrap-up meeting for Otakon 2009. This is where we handled business related to this year's convention, and section heads and officers gave their final reports.

*grin* Cook-in, indeed.

What is your gray kitty's name, btw? I combed through your LJ and couldn't find it.

This goes back to childhood days, when nothing irked me more than dolls or stuffed animals with their clothes sewn on. I liked to have the option of dressing them in other things, such as clothes I made myself.

I asked the other women present if they had the same habit, and none confessed. But towards the end of the meeting, I heard my name and turned around. The head of Exhibitions pointed to another female staffer, who was holding the "naked" plushie in one hand and the robe in the other. She waved them and smiled. Turns out I'm not alone!

I didn't always undress my plushies, but I did do so to my barbies. And yes, because I did like to have the option, and try to dress 'em in clothes other than what they were wearing already.

Also, you always have such awesome photos of people... ^_^

When I played Barbies with my friends, we used to spend the first half hour just putting new outfits on them and doing their hair.

I get awesome pics of people because I take so many of them! Plus, I try to get people in natural moments. Then again, people like Hellbuny make it easy, because he's always willing to be silly for me.

He has a history with that horsie!

And yup, plushies with their clothes sewn on have always bothered me too. I tend to undress as well!

That picture is great. He cracks me up.

One of my favorite plushies ever is a panda plushie in a sheep skin. ^_^ Soo cute! And it's removable!
