It was a pretty sweet weekend overall. Aside from dramz here and there... and now we're back to the real world.

Oh man what an awesome and crazy weekend.

Friday brought ups and downs. My GPS brought us through the Holland Tunnel instead of the Lincoln.... which brought on being lost then later being pulled over for being on a cell phone and getting a $100+ ticket.. sweet. But when I actually got to the con, it was fabulous! I went to the panel for the Return to Wonderland comic... WHERE I WON A HARDCOVER OF THE ENTIRE RETURN TO WONDERLAND SERIES THAT I LATER GOT SIGNED BY THE WRITERS/ILLUSTRATORS!!! And after all of that excitement, I met up with ( Tank Girl )

I love that girl. Best cosplay partner ever. And that pretty much summed up Friday. Aside from an awful drive in, the day was FANTASTIC.

Saturday was a lot more relaxing. I met up with my ( Venture Sister )

And Cosplay burlesque went fantastically. My surprise Daria act went fantastically, except for one asshole saying I "didn't represent Daria correctly"... fuck that. I was the hottest Daria around.( End of discussion. )

That pretty much sums up NYCC this year. Now back to reality.

I'm staying at my dad's this week taking care of Buddy, which is pretty okay... but he doesn't get internet so I have to take what I can get when I get to school. *shrug* It makes for very long boring evenings if Jon isn't with me. And when he is with me, we go to bed by 10:15 because we're just that bored.
