A little bit of Nowhere

Ever notice how it's the little things in life that amuse us so much? More to the point, ever notice how it's the silly little idiocies in life that amuse us more than anything else? Well, this is not as much ''the little blog that could'' as it is ''the blog that enjoys going up the down escalator in your local mall.'' Will it have anything of real importance? No, probably not. But enjoy the ride never the less!

It's Coooooooming...


Were you aware that Anime North 2009 is just two weeks away?

I wasn't. It didn't sink in until I sat down and realized, "holy crap, in two weeks' time, I'll be spending this evening at Kevin & Donna's, making sure we have all our stuff packed." This also means I need to make a shortlist of swag-to-buy, since Mel's and my Con budget is a lot tighter than usual this year (thank you recent health care modifications to the Canadian tax system...) and I need to make the most of what little cash Mel & I have that won't automatically go into paying for the hotel room.

But even still...hoorays for AN09!

In other news, I have made the mistake of buying Mel a Kimmidoll as a surprise gift. Now she's eyeballing the collection, which is rather vast. It'll be like collecting the classic Pooh alphabet letters all over again--and they took over 2 years of gradual buying before we got all 26.

What is a Kimmidoll? Well, they're kinda like dolls, and kinda like yamato-nadesico bowling pins. And while they may not hold the comedic value of an utterly confuzzled Psyduck, they're a lot cooler to collect than Pokerats.
