can I quit now?  
Didn't get much done today *pouts*

Josh started a game in Crisis Core I've been telling him all about it ^_^ he's been hoping that they'll make it for the PS3 which they've done for a few of these PSP games.

Been working on a Hurt/Comfort fic for Supernatural...but my brain just isn't making it easy. I'm stuck at the moment where I don't think it's worth completing. I've been getting really frustrated with it tonight, I start writing something for it, and suddenly have to go back and change a lot of it >_< I'd just really like to be able to finish it!

I went out for a walk today cashed my GST rebate and decided to stop in at my Oma's one of my aunts was visiting with her kids. and found out that my camera can zoom in and out while filming, this is something I've wanted for a long time. I'm also hoping that it's low light abilities will make filming at Animaritime easier.



this is Griffin my aunt's youngest, I have a real soft spot for him

Masquerade  
we had 29 entries for the Masquerade this year, and they had to walk across the convention center in order to make it to the main events room. Main Events room was just about filled with people, see...







nice crowd.

I found some time to photograph Roxas, he's so cute!!



It was pouring rain this morning

This is one of our vendors who's come every year and this year acted as a judge for the masquerade.



Here's our guest again, today dressed as a Pirate!



We had a lot of people in cos today! not uncommon for a Saturday, I'll have pictures from the Masquerade in a separate post all on their own

Animaritime Day 1  
I was really hoping to get a post done tonight with pictures from the events held today. but the Delta has a seriously suckie internet connections at least and night. So I think that'll have to wait until tomorrow.

The HUGE news is that today alone we had 595 people register! that's More than all of last year! this is both exciting and scary I don't think most of us considered the real possibility that we might double in size again this year.

Some other random bits of information, our hotel room is often called Murder Central ^_~

Tomorrow we're expecting some serious weather to blow through, so that might lower the amount of people who register tomorrow....but none of us are holding are breath this is the Maritime's after all, we can't be sure what to expect.

So with luck tomorrow I'll bring Toboe with me so I can't take some time to get you pictures of what we've been up too, and perhaps a movie too!

out of my mind!  
Kate and I were kind of hoping that she'd get off work at Noon today, I guess it won't be too much longer until I find out. I've got our bus tickets, also had to run out and buy myself another pair of sunglasses cause mine appeared to have run away....

[this is why I'm not allowed to have nice things]

I think I've got everything packed that I need, now all there's left is to wait, I'm sure if Kate were here she'd have something to do, like research I believe.

right now I've just got way too much time to think...

[thinking = teh evil!]

I never learn...  
I've started work on my next slide show for Animaritime. This is the one for Wil ^_^ for stepping out of the 'Real World' ^_~ and coming to join our special brand of insanity ^_^

But damn if I don't have to pick the most difficult songs, the ones where each word damn near is important, so I have to time the thing down to the second in order to make it fit. And in this one I want the transision to fit with what's happening too.

I never learn...

I've got the first part squared away but with the TV on and conversations going on, along with my cat being extrat especially clingy I just don't feel like I can keep working at it without killing something, or worse yet someone....

*sigh*

I'll have tons of time to work on it tomorrow, and hopefully my ability to write will return to me. I want to make posts!!

I want Pirates and Hunters to start flowing again [info]neekabe I need my muse to poke it, or give it a good kick ^_^ you know how stubborn those Winchester boys can be ^_~

a tribut to Will  
I have another silde show in mind to make!

Unfortunately I have to wait until lappy comes back from the repair shop since Toboe has all my pictures on it, but the song I want to do it to is:

Shellshocked by Chronic Future ^_~

Lies won't save you from the bomb that you just dropped
I'm standing shellshocked but I'm still here
And this to you is what I'm saying
All that's false will
Fade away

You run away from what you know will surely come
I will remember everything that you have done
And this to you is what I'm saying
All that's false will
Fade away

I'll say it again because
Who are you
To say to me
That I'm not all right
You don't know it's like
I'm shellshocked
And ripped apart inside
No I'm not all right
You don't know what it's like

Well yeah a change in character is great
And if it's what you need to say
It's probably what I need to hear
But never again in that way

I don't care what I'm doing that turning you off of me
It's my care for pursuing our friendship responsibly
That's why I need to reconstruct what happens subconsciously
So we don't continue to treat our silence so obnoxiously

Lies won't save you from the bomb that you just dropped
I'm standing shellshocked but I'm still here
And this to you is what I'm saying
All that's false will
Fade away

It think most of it works ^_^ and with the right pictures I think it could turn out really well ^_~ *fingers crossed*
