Back from ACen, and boy did I get hit hard with the con plague this year. If you were in the area of Black Mage/Waka on Friday/Saturday respectively, and now you've got a nasty sore throat that's migrating into your sinuses and inviting all of its relatives over to stay, well, sorry. That's my fault. ^^" Have chamomile tea and eggs. They help.

Had a lovely time chatting with some RO cosplayers, who had apparently heard of the three of us who were Munak, Bongun and Hyegun last year (which was AWESOME). So shoutout to Lord Knight Zealous, and to the High Priestess and Stalker whose names I didn't get.

Friday I was one of only two Black Mages at the con, and the other one was Vivi. There were more on Saturday, but Saturday I reprised Waka from year before last, due to the program guide saying that there would be an Okami photo shoot. Lies and trickery. But I got to impress people with my shoes again. I bought a Mother's Day present for my mom, a postcard of Waka, and a Handy Haversack (no really, and it's awesome).

Sunday we decided to go see Star Trek instead of paying another $13 for parking for barely half a day of the con, and it was definitely a good choice. That's a great movie, it really is. If you're a fan of the original series, I highly recommend it. Zachary Quinto is perfect as Spock, and there's a lovely moment towards the end when the boy who will become the Captain James T. Kirk that we all know and love proves that he can do it. It's all in the head toss. ^^

The whole weekend was a bit overshadowed by some family goings on, though... my grandma's in the hospital and not doing too well. She had a surgery on Saturday that they didn't really expect her to make it through, but she made it with flying colors, so we'll see how it goes. It kind of put a damper on things. I got to visit her on Friday, though, for which I'm very grateful.

Today was for homework and recovery. Tomorrow is for class and recovery. I haven't had much time to draw, and everything I do manage to doodle is just that; a doodle. Maybe I'll actually get something done at some point... but I trust I'll be forgiven if I don't. ^^
