Updates



I went to PAX with ~afreak, ~Cadychan and another friend of ours. Unfortunately we weren't there for the whole weekend since we got there late on friday, but we really enjoyed ourselves with what we got.

~Cadychan and I went to check out this amazing "Women in Gaming" panel, which presented some interesting points, and found out after that ~afreak went and got a bunch of free spoils. Which, was our next objective but everyone ran out of nearly everything.

So we went shopping.

And man, does my wallet hate me.

Let's see. I went home with a lot of OniPress goodies (Scott Pilgrim, mostly, but the artist for NorthWorld was also there and it sounded really good, so why not)... a Mario magnet, a shirt from Behemoth Games, a Photoshop Hero Tshirt and a PAX09 shirt. I'm slightly annoyed over the last two Tshirts because they had run out of small *AND* medium Tshirts; so I suffered with Large, which fits loosely so it's not THAT bad. Unfortunately the guy gave me an XL PAX Tshirt. *facepalm*... mind you, the fit is better than most of the Large "one size fits all gamers" promotional Tshirts which are probably going to my brother. Except for the "If This Tshirt Doesn't Smell Then I'm Not Gaming Enough" one because even though it's big I like it not that I smell, but maybe it'll prove a point to those who ask me why I don't have time to play video games

Lots of free goodies, too. I didn't get to play a lot because work was being a wanker for all of us so we didn't get down there until 7:30 friday night, when registration was CLOSED. But, I did play/see games like Muramasa (fffff so pretty), Blazblue, Fate/Stay on the PSP, Dungeon Fighter (I want this game)... and got promo codes for other Beta games for when I do have time like Dofus. I keep hearing that Dofus/Wakfu isn't that great, but ~gueuzav is one of the artists for it and I've been meaning to play it for forever. To say the least, it wasn't as enriching as I wanted to be since I haven't been as hardcore as I was a couple years back and I felt a little ashamed for that ;;; and a good half of the con was PC gaming, which I haven't gotten into as much. This is because I've had computers that weren't powerful enough... but speaking of which, I've gotten a better computer which means I'll *finally* get to play TF2 and Portal and the like sooner than I thought.

Saturday night/sunday I felt a cold coming on, which I've largely avoided but it left me feeling rather lethargic. We left early because of that, and, it was mostly con leftovers at that point anyways. So, we went shopping at Fry's 8D I didn't buy much, but I went home with The Triplets of Belleville. I didn't know it was hanging out on DVD around here, so I was quite happy to find it :> as well as single coloured radioactively turquoise M&M's... which... I bought purely for the strange nature of it. OTL

Also, I am getting a cellphone plan for next year so that I can actually roam without my service being a douchebag. *sigh*

As for artings, I ended up with another non-relevant full time job, so again I wound up with next to no time for it. It's such a vicious cycle-- I need free time to make something impressionable to GET a good job, but in order to get sufficient free time I need to have enough money to GET ME THROUGH. I'm not trying to be negative, because I will make it happen sooner or later. But in the meantime, finishing commissions comes first before I do anything personal for this year as well as doing other things for my sanity and spending time with ~afreak



TLDR;
I want to live at PAX, Americaland is a land of strange things (and food I shouldn't be touching with a 10ft pole), I need to win the lottery because I am so broke-ass poor right now, and I must focus on insanity and 4 hours of sleep a night to drawr moar.
