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!

I Has A Con


And thusly, for one and three-quarter days, didst our hero journey off to a wondrous paradise filled with otaku in need of a bath, fangirls brandishing uke-bats and so much swag he'd have to ransom off half the guests of honour just to pay for everything that didst please his eyes.

And it should hopefully be good.


If we're all lucky, this little bit of nowhere will cough and stir and rattle its chains on Monday. Wherein I can share with you the unique experience of having an escaped mental patient riding one's bus to work. (Spoiler: it wasn't me for once.)

To those of you at the Con checking out this blog in your rooms...why the hell aren't you in the Dealer's Room or attending my swankariffic panels? And to those of you not at the Con this weekend...if you hear an agonizing scream from afar, don't worry, it's just my wallet crying out in pain.

And On The Third Day Of The Con...


...God said, "Let there be free burgers at Harveys again."

And there was.

And the Harveys employees wept as they realized just how many penniless, starving otaku would swarm their restaurant that day.



So, yeah: the radio announcement confirmed it. Once more, with sobbing: if you're willing to brave the never-ending 2-hour long line coiled around Harveys like an infernal swag-toting snake, then you can have a free meal on the Suday of Anime North.

The employees there must be catching on. If it were me, I'd be booking this coming Sunday off at least a year in advance.
