Radcon is over!
2 min read
It was pretty exciting! Drama happened, but I avoided most of it. Note to self: don't leave shit with other people, you'll end up not having access to it for a few hours. -_-
Anyways! I did not end up taking a lot of photos, which I am kind of upset about. I was in quite a bunch, and getting hugged and/or talked to a lot. What little photos I did take, most turned out crap. Gotta love the iPhone 4! I posted the ones that were okay.
Once again the masquerade was late, but that's nothing new. Aside from the MC's commentary, my friends' Bane skit and the Star Wars skit (it gets better every year), it was not worth standing in line for almost an hour and a half. Luckily, I had nothing better to do, and I had some company for most of the wait.
I was so excited for the fire dancers! (Ignition Fire Troupe, website here: www.ignitionfire.net/) But, when I went outside to see them, I realized I couldn't see! I have a hard enough time seeing at night now, and after being sick it's not any better! Can't see far at all @_@;;; And there were people smoking EVERYWHERE. Like, c'mon. -_- I ended up focusing all my energy to try and see them. Saw a bunch of fire looking colors, and then some other colors (which I'm pretty sure were the light sabers ;D)
I can't wait for ECCC! Two weeks away! I'm not sure if I'll dress up, or at least dress up in something I cannot function as well in as normal clothes. I want to take lots of photos and chat with people!

First off, Radcon is this weekend! I pre-registered a little while ago, so that's set aside! It's going to be so much fun! My cousin is coming into town and I haven't seen her since my birthday! We are having a little drinking gathering at my house Friday night so that will be exciting. It'll be interesting to see how many friends from the con end up coming over for a bit. We'll just have to figure out how to get everyone back in time for the rave!
I will also need to figure out what cosplays I am doing. I finished my Castiel cosplay, and I really just want to wear that! Ha ha! Originally it was going to be as follows: on Friday (Homestuck) I would be Vriska (mostly complete, all that is left would be making new horns or finding a new headband to attach the old ones, ripping the sleeve off of the gray shirt and a desire for getting a gray and spiderweb glove to have in lieu of traditional roboarm) or Kankri (complete aside from a desired repainting of horns), or both, doing a Vriska inspired rave outfit; Saturday I would be Seto Kaiba (complete aside from styling new wig, old wig is still great) and for the rave, Roxy; and Sunday I would either wear normal clothes or human!stuck or Seto again. Now it's back up in the air. I may be too lazy to put on troll makeup, ha ha. But we are having a little Homestuck meeting so I may do it. I'll have to figure out something before Friday...
Tomorrow is my last day of work until next week, so that's somewhat exciting! And do to jury duty (-_-) and doctor appointments next week I'll only be able to work two days! So, the next paychecks are not going to be too hot. Which is a little sad seeing as the first weekend of March ... I'M GOING TO EMERALD CITY COMICON!
I convinced my parents to take a trip up to Seattle/Snoqualmie for the weekend so that they can drive me up and house me in their hotel room so I can go meet Misha Collins ;D I got a three-day pass, seeing as it was $5 more than Sat/Sun day passes. Which ended up being a good decisions because both of my parents just took the 1st off I'm so excited! There's Misha Collins, and the rest of the guests are great! I wasn't able to go last year so this will be a great treat, especially since I've decided I won't go to SDCC because a friend invited me to Otakon and I'd much rather see her!
At this point, I still don't think I'll make Sakuracon, but at least I'll get to go to ECCC <3 I may meet up with a couple friends there, so that will be nice.
I also got invited to go out dancing not this weekend, but next weekend! Which should be great! I've been sick lately and I'm finally feeling better so as long as this weekend goes well I should be able to dance my heart out (and maybe drink a little) when we go to the club(s)!
A good chunk of the excitement is due to the fact I've been sick on and off since November and I'll finally be able to do stuff!
Oh! And the Yu-Gi-Oh! stuff I preordered from Japan (Joey kotobukiya figures, some shirts, wallscrolls, tumblrs and posters) should be shipping out around the end of the month Though, depending on what becomes available, paying for it won't be so nice XD
The more personal stuff is below~
As for the money deal: my car is running good, my parents will fix my windshield once ,their trips to Seattle are over so that it doesn't happen again while the pass is still crappy, and eventually my dad will find the part I need for my door and we'll see if we can get that window fixed and go from there (it sounds like it'll be around $100 so that's not as bad as I originally thought); Radcon and ECCC tickets are paid for so I just need to pay for any food and goods I want (I've got $100 set aside for Misha) if any; depending on what preorders becomes will determine how much of the money I've set aside will go to use right away (I hope shipping isn't too terrible, but I bet it will be @_@;; once rates are available I may just pick the lowest or lowest w/insurance...); most of my medical bills haven't come in yet, I still don't expect to see them until March or April, we'll see how fast it goes through insurance (regardless I'm going to have my mom talk to insurance if most ends up not being covered 'cause I guess they're supposed to cover it but they don't always pay the doctors right away -_-), I have the chiropractic one but I pay that a bit as I go; and my next two paychecks will go towards my other bills (such as netflix, storage etc); and that about sums up that! I've got most of it figured out! Once the cons are out of the way and I'm officially better I'm going to look for another job and work towards saving up for Otakon and paying of any and all bills I get this year!

Quick question!

Have any of you ever purchased from discountanimeusa.com?
A friend is inquiring, but I never have. Reviews don't look good but I thought I'd ask!

Exhausted!

Today was my first day back at work after being really sick. It wasn't tough work, but I haven't been up and active for over a week. @_@;; I just really hope I was ready to go back and that this doesn't set me back. 
I've been sick way to much lately.
Good news! My test results should be in this week and I'll be able to talk with my doctor to see if they can figure out what's wrong with me. And the DM figures I preordered should be here this week, too!
Bad news time. My car stopped working. Something is wrong with the battery. It died. My dad thinks something inside is wrong, bc the battery shouldn't have died already. That, along with my fried door motors, window problems and cracked windshield, IDK when I'll be able to fix my car and have it up and running again. At least it had a bath? Also, my chiro bill is terrible and my hips popped out again. And I still haven't received the new medical bills for this month (and this month has barely started.) I really hope I'm done with testing, bc I don't know if I can afford much more of this. And I don't even want to go over the fact that I may not even have health insurance for much longer...
Been a crap day. It didn't help when my manager was finally in and I tried to talk to her and get her UTD on my health problems and she was just going off about how I had missed a few days "here and there."
Oh well. Just gotta focus on getting better and hope I can make it to Radcon (which means the room is out of the picture)! And then I can think more about Sakuracon...
