DAY 3 1/2- Shinjuku Park, Shinkansen, Oooosakaaaa
I suppose I wasn’t entirely finished talking about Akihabara. Well, ok, no, obviously I WAS done- but now I’m not! To get you back into the spirit of reading about it- here’s a picture of a picture of the pictures that maids working at the maid cafes handed to us of themselves. I took their requests for “NO PICTURES PLEASE THANK YOU” seriously.

UENO AND AKIHABARA
UENO AND AKIHABARA, JAPAN. MAY 17thWell, I let a few days pass since the last time I updated and I’m sort of kicking myself for that. I had to wait that long to be ABLE to kick myself about it because a few days of not walking around everywhere reminded my legs that they were supposed to be in horrible, cramping agony. While I was thinking “Now ( Read more... ) -
SHINJUKU, JAPAN. May 16th (15th U.S time)
Day 1- Shinjuku, TokyoI’m writing this post right after the last one I wrote when I was woozy and sleepy. This means that I am still woozy and sleepy. Why am I doing this rather than sleeping? It’s because I don’t want to forget to do this or get too lazy and decide I don’t want to anymore. It’s also because I’ve been sleeping off and on all day ( Read more... ) -
THE GREAT JAPAN TRIP: MAY 14th
Day 1- SEATTLE
I’m still a little woozy headed and sleepy so I am sorry if this is hard to follow or boring. Conversely, if this happens to be hilariously scattered and bizarre I’m not sorry. Weird is acceptable. Boring is not. I think that should be a new family motto or something. Anyway ( Read more... ) -
I'm so crispy? Muggings and Heroism in Indy.
I don’t even know where to begin with this tale, so I guess I’ll just jump right in. Today Eel and I met up with Tybar, the man we met in the Exalted chatroom who said that he would marry us on Sunday. Neat, that all went extraordinarily well. He plans on having one part of the service where he leads us to guests and has the guests explain how ( Read more... ) -

Another Important Update
I am lying on my couch and I have two kitties to my side keeping me from being able to get up off the couch. It's out of my control now. It's time to waste a morning on the internet. C'est le Vie, right? -
More on "Not Wedding"s and "Not Plan"s and "Not Normal Venue"s
Oh my gosh! After that last post and after sending out the message to some of my friends here as well, I feel so much more...er... overwhelmed than I did when I was just, you know, talking to Derek the Event Coordinator at Gen Con. Apparently there are these things called plans and people are very interested in them. It seems that people have ( Read more... ) -
You're cordially, I mean humorously, invited....

I don't like weddings. Not usually. At least, not traditional weddings. I mean, it's not that there is anything wrong with weddings per-se. I'm happy to see friends and family get married and happy to get invitations to them, but ( Read more... ) -
Rhiannon and the Doctor
I just had a crazy dream where Eel and I were the Doctor's (the 10th Doctor- Mr. Tennant) companions. He was awesome, charming, flawless, etc... except he kept singing this crazy song about a sock he had knitted. I wish I could remember the words because in the dream I thought it was freaking hilarious. At one point, outside of Denny's, he ( Read more... )
