I wish this weekend had been more productive, but it wasn't too bad, so I won't complain. After all, I got sushi!! ^_^

Friday was spent cleaning, as was most of Saturday while Barry was off at Roundcon (more on that later). Then Saturday around noon I got a call from a new friend who needed a HUGE distraction from her husband because [rant deleted due to personal information and LOTS of swear words.] All in all, I'm glad we didn't go someplace that sold alcohol because we would have needed a cab to get home. She left around 7ish. As upset as I was about her situation, I was glad it happened. Now she can get a fresh start and move on.

After B got back from Rcon we talked about D*C as well as possibly going to ConCarolinas, which is in late May. Apparently he made some GREAT contacts at Rcon, so it looks like he'll be doing AT-43 demos at the major gaming cons whenever possible (inc Mace). I might be tagging along depending on money and hotel space. The good thing about going to a gaming con is that I'll be able to get lots of 'behind the scenes' experience. Since I'm not a heavy gamer I won't be drawn to panels or play tables, so I'll be able to stick with the con staff. This is great because there's a heavy chance I'll be helping/running the anime track at Rcon next year. ^_^ Of course I probably just jinxed myself. lol!

MJ is doing well, albeit spastic. I think we need to get him a buddy. I'd love to get another cat since we wouldn't really have to buy anything other than more cat food. However, B really wants a dog. Understandable since he's a dog person, however MJ doesn't seem to like dogs. We'll see I guess.

Anyway, I'd better get back to work. Tah!

On several things actually...

First, has anyone ever used Justmanga.com? I placed an order there this morning. Their claim is that they'll get my books to me faster. So far they're estimated shipping time is no better than the usual online stores I uses. However, they're on par/cheaper than the regulars, so that's not too bad. They also have a free shipping deal going on. Admittedly, they are in the NW, so it doesn't help that my package is having to travel across a continent.

Secondly, I'm baking a Key Lime Pie for Barry for his birthday later this month. I found too good recipes, but I don't know which one to chose. Help?
Easy Key Lime Pie I
Key Lime Pie VIII

Lastly, are any of my in-state friends interested in going to RoundCon next year? They're looking for some anime-minded people to help with that track. Cosplay is a plus. They're trying to branch out and I think the more visual the group is the better it would do. I also want to try and have a manga trade table along with the viewing room.

I'm making a new D*C tradition for myself. I'm going to walk down to the Varsity for lunch on Thursday. Who's with me?!
Directions from the Marriott

The best part is we'll walk off all the calories. ^_^ It's only .8 miles each way, which isn't too much longer than the parade route. And there's frosted orange drinks!!

Btw, does anyone know if there are sidewalks all the way there?
