No Need To Call David Boreanez After All
In retrospect, perhaps it's not the best thing when planning to surprise everyone at a convention with the unexpected appearance of your fiancee, to go and announce your fiancee's impending arrival at an online public place. Like say, oh, A Little Bit of Nowhere. Yes indeed, hindsight is 20/20, and my hindside's looking a little sore thanks to me kicking it repeatedly for being so blatantly an idiot. I've forgotten just how many notable friends and family read this.
I'd like to be able to apologize and say that in future posts I won't make myself look so idiotic...but the odds are I'd screw up that fount of idealism before the end of the week.
Yet Anime North 2003 was fantastic. When you either have seen or own whatever's being shown in the viewing rooms, it frees up a lot of time to just wander around the Dealer's Room (I said "No" to a $100 Lain artbook...but the artbook wouldn't take that for an answer), spend time with Melissa, hang out with friends and visit the swimming pool repeatedly. Aside from that pesky little bout of "The chlorine burns! It burns!", all was quite well. Just how much chlorine they felt was necessary in the water boggles me, since I could feel the skin cells being ripped apart with each stroke I made.
I suppose I really didn't need that layer of epidermis anyways.
That aside, things are returning back to their usual state of "whaaaa?" I've returned to my room, my Shih-tzu puppy, my laptop and its wonky screen, and an Email Inbox filled with roughly 150 spams. At least those were the spams that were able to get in before my Inbox got too loaded and didn't allow anything else to be stored. Did I mention how much I hate spam?
Today's Lesson: Chlorine burns! It burns!
