Back from Akon. My wallet is screaming bloody murder at me. I found a Mr. Resetti (Animal Crossing) plushie, and it was all downhill from there. We suprisingly did a whole lot of nothing the first day. We spent oodles of time shambling around the dealer's room. I got said Resetti Plushie, a Shadow the Hedgehog hat, some Disgaea 2 vinyls, and a Shinai. (The Shinai is now my cat-poking stick.) After wandering around there like an idiot for several hours, we made it to Artist's alley and met up with Fevereon where I got to drool over her Fireseal project. Very exceptional work. So we chatted for a while, and then got ushered away into the abyss of the con. Eventually made it back home where I unleashed the fury of a thousand PMSing Badgers upon limebarb.com for their inept concept of 'Finishing on Time.' I had ordered an Ultraman Mebius cosplay back in December, and I was told it'd be done in January. Lo and behold ladies and gents, I still don't have it. So yeah, I'm pissed at that, but whatever.

Then Saturday came. And the pain of standing and waiting occurred at great length. We attended the Vic Mignogna concert. It was very fun. Then stood in line for three and a half hours only to scream 'GENERATOR GAWL' in his face, and get ushered away. MONICAL RIAL LEFT 2 PEOPLE BEFORE US. I WAS MOST UNHAPPY BECAUSE I LOVE MONICA. </ADV Voice Actor Fanboying> We rushed to the dealer's room, spent more money on a Kingdom Hearts Artbook, 4 Guilty Gear Doujin, and a Koopa Shell before returning to Artist Alley to buy artwork of Gyuver, Sonic VS Shadow, Megaman, and Gurren Lagann. Said hello to S2k who was evil enough to show me how poor of a Gurren Lagann fanboy I was. I SWEAR I SHALL COSPLAY VIRAL SOMEDAY. And then went to a room of some friends to play Smash Bros. Brawl.

So now I am poor. As usual. Played Tench (Z or 2, not sure) yesterday. Ran around as HYDE, THE NAKED NINJA, for a mission before I realized I could no longer breath from laughter. Slepts some, ate some, and yeah, that's all.

Next week or so, I'll bumper the Kaiju Contest. There's still some time but it's running out fast, so don't forget your entries!

AOTM June:

- Ah, the most patient person I'll ever know. But that's not why he's the AOTM for June. No. He's been selected for his ridiculously awesome character designs. Folks, if there's one thing I like, it's stuff that's unique. Stuff that's detailed. And stuff that has an elegant and tasteful appeal. You'll find it all in his gallery, so go check it out!

- Every month I'll add a featured artist here. The purpose is to promote those I watch. If you'd like to reccommend someone, note me.
