Catching up on things...

[bhanesidhe]

Weekend of April 24-26, 2009 - Was Kids Comiccon. We started out the day with upward of 7 kids and ended up with 2 (unless you count tier_luren, then it felt more like 5.) Aria (Niece, Age 7) had a bad cold but insisted on attending. Of course, she fell asleep during goraina & yaytime's panel, but I'm sure that was the fever and not a judgment on her part. She did wake up in time to demand Chibi's! Other Notables: randomly getting the Nick Magazine ali_wildgoose wrote Avatar stuffs for ^_^ Running into Lil Cousin 'Ronnie' @ Surprise!Jim Hanley booth =^__^=

Weekend of May 1-3, 2009 - was Free Comic Book Day. In contrast to Kids ComicCon, I expected no children and 4 turned up, (unless we count tier_luren& syndara then the number jumps to 12). We turned up early @ Jim Hanely's Universe for the FCHS signing (with Author: Vito & Artist: Ronnie), wherein the game was how many ways can you make a cousin snort/laugh before her adoring public. Answer: Three. Saturday Also Featured: Monsters Vs. Alien in 3D & Vertigo :D Secret Breakfasts in SEEKRIT!! (w/ Rachel "Ronnie" Freire*) *not to be confused with Rach "Faery" Freire/kuchisake_onna who was doing her winningest @ Alternative Miss World that weekend. Congratuwelldone! Another Secret rendezvous (w/ Cousin Ronnie, plus Cousin Elise) only this time, Adventureland!

Sunday Featured: Rained out Picnics Tours in Epic Cemeteries Guided by a bemused oneangryrabbit Rum tasting with calloocallay (special guest star soupkills as "Comatose Guy") and a Mausoleum for the Family "Cavemeister", crazy Pyramid featuring Jesus & Baby Eating Sphinx, not to mention the equally Narcissistic and Gratuitous grave of one "Gabe Gabriel". Also, lots and lots of rain.

Weekend of May 8-10, 2009 Greyhound ride of Ironic Hell (including 1/2 day in a broke down bus in South Jersey.) Lavish cliffside stay @ Casa Mello, in Pasadena Becca's Memorial BBQ Dinner. Lots of SoCo, Tequila & Commiserating. the mysterious disappearance of 3 cell phone chargers, 2 Mac Power cords and 1 Brother.

pic taken for misstuesday and only under duress and after 6 cocktails. .

Weekend of May 15-17, 2009 2 almost arrests cuz chuckle-headed brother, Gabe/tier_luren couldn't figure out how to cross the street, whilst intoxicated leaving LA, but ONLY after Sushi with hermorrine & mayapurple Drive out to San Diego and visit Casa Dalton Watch Star Trek, forgetting Thom was a Trekkie... ...and corrupting the Mini-Masses XD Climbing in and around the "Cottonwood Grove", on trees meant for climbing... shame the Dalton kiddlings weren't with that day ^^; Winning Tickets from a local radio station to see NIN/JA in Chula Vista 1 more almost arrest cuz chuckle-headed Thom tried flinging himself @ Perry Farrell 6am flight to NYC, only to get whiplash on the cab ride home ^^;

Next Weekend May 22-24, 2009 - AnimeBoston, special guest starring ali_wildgoose ... stay tuned!

Following Weekend?....
All I want is to see this:

Watch on YouTube

with as many friends we can fit into the Angelika.

That's not so much to ask, is it?

I was going to ask how things in Cali went. Sounds like it was good.

[jlh.livejournal.com]

a movie sounds good to me! Glad you're back! See you when you're back from the con!

[ali-wildgoose.livejournal.com]

Wait until you see the display thing I made for us. IT IS EPIC. (Read: It is 7' wide)

[bhanesidhe.livejournal.com]

That just got me giddy!

[hermorrine.livejournal.com]

*hugs you* I'm SO glad we finally got to meet - I just wish it had been longer!!

And I hope you got my email from that night.

[bhanesidhe.livejournal.com]

*hugs back* I Did! ^_^

Once I got to Maya's, I checked e-mail. She was worried, but I was all "this is why I always give preemptive hugs. Just in case."

I had fun and laughed just tons. Couldn't ask for any better, even if it was brief. Now to just make sure our paths cross again *plots*

Ah, but first, pack for Boston, as all I seem to be doing is rushing these days.

[soupkills.livejournal.com]

Woo Comatose Guy! It's one of my favorite parts. :)

[abrexis.livejournal.com]

Val! I'm crap and disorganised as always, but I shall be in New York from Friday onwards. Will you be around? I have a number for you from ages ago, do you still have mine? It hasn't changed in the past four years or so. I was planning on going to Mocca and had vague memories of you saying you'd be there.
Slightly manic message, so apologies. Lack of sleep and lotsxlots of sugar. I'll have proper internet access until thurdsay, possibly patchy after that xxx

[bhanesidhe.livejournal.com]

I'll totally be at MoCCA! I hadn't planned to be in NY this weekend, so I don't have a table, but I will be there... but wandering aimlessly. In fact I'm wandering aimless in Brooklyn as we speak.

I'm totally open Monday. :)

[abrexis.livejournal.com]

want to wander aimlessly about with me at MoCCA for a while? I can pretend to have friends, it will be a novel experience (just moved to a new city and am not really adjusting well to my sudden and complete lack of social life)
Otherwise I'll be around on Monday!

[bhanesidhe.livejournal.com]

Of course I want to wander aimlessly with you :D
That's one of my life's goals right there!

[abrexis.livejournal.com]

Awesome!
Shall we actually arrange to meet now? Since I have many memories of wandering aimlessly without you, attempting to wander aimlessly with you!
Any obvious time and place to meet for MoCCA?

[bhanesidhe.livejournal.com]

Dude, I dunno. I'm not a morning person so I know I wont be there when it opens. And it doesn't help that there isn't really any place decent to eat near there.

There is a park my friends are option that's in Madison Square Park (not Garden) that has a place in it called "The Shake Shack", (its at the corner of 23rd & 5th Avenue). Then we can walk back together, but I think we just need to figure time wise... I'm leaning towards 3, cuz I can't stand being out when the sun is at its meanest. But chance are, it'll be raining just to spite me ^^;

[abrexis.livejournal.com]

Three sounds good to me, I'm all for avoiding the sun. Do you have a mobile? I've got a number for you but it's a landline.

[bhanesidhe.livejournal.com]

As long as you've known me, when have I ever carried a cellphone ^^;

[abrexis.livejournal.com]

Well yes, but I've heard that people change... Or, you know, give in. See you at three tommorow then! That's a bit crazy, it's been what, 3 years?

[abrexis.livejournal.com]

Arghh google toolbar is annoying and not letting me respond. Eighth attempt -

Turned up pretty late on Sunday and didn't see you. I'm aiming to make the book reading tomorrow, but I'll have to leave about half six to catch the gig. Had a great time on Saturday! xx

Hellooooo we found your brother's reboot pin in Dan's car! :D We are happy to mail it to you guys if you give me an address :)
