This past weekend I worked a bit but I actually had Sunday off from work and so parents and I went to Carter Mountain which is an Apple Orchard. It was fun even though I really don't eat apples. Weird right but I love apple cider, their apple doughnuts, apple sauce, apple cobbler and apple pie. Just not straight apples haha.
I took pictures yesterday and just need to edit them and I will post them on here and also talk about Carter Mountain and maybe it's history if I can find some :)
I got a surprise for you all! I will tell you about it tomorrow or the day after!
I am currently reading Harry Potter 7 again. I started on the drive to the mountain yesterday and now am currently on page 290. Good stuff, I can't wait to see these last two films but I have to wait on the girl friend to get in to town to go see it with her. I don't think she will be back home till December or so :(
I am going down to see her Friday because we are going to Nekocon! Exited about that and I think she is to. Probably more on the part that she gets to see me but I think she will have a good time and she put together a costume: Kiki from Kiki's Delivery Service. I feel bad because for a bit I got busy last month with a paper and work and I was going to make a Studio Ghibli character costume like Howl but it is to complicated to make in the few short days I have. I also really like to take photos at these kind of events but if I do wear a costume like No-Face from Spirited Away then there will be no photos that I will post for any of you to see. Sorry :( I do really want to take photos but my girl friend wont dress up if I don't dress up from a Ghibli film. I do have a costume that is not related to the studio but she said no so guys. I'm sorry but there will be no photo taking at the event since I will have to rely on No-Face. I would even wear my Waldo costume there since I can carry a bag with the costume but I don't think she wants me to wear that either. So maybe the next convention in August or the year after since I wont go if I end up going to Japan this summer.
Otakon has a page up in memory of Satoshi Kon, a director for many productions like Paprika, Tokyo Godfathers, Paranoia Agent and Perfect Blue. He died from Pancreatic Cancer. Here is the page here
I am currently at my desk at work and I do have some work to do! Ha. I am still annoyed with this keyboard though and thank god I brought my own wireless mouse to use or I would die.
Oh! and how was everyones Halloween?! No one came back to my house for candy and this is the second year in a row. It is sad and I don't even know if there was anyone in our neighborhood actually out last night. I hope there were because it was so much fun when I was younger and it was legal for me to do it haha.
One last item is that I added a donation button on the right at the bottom. I did that since I have been looking for a camera and also been trying to cover reviews on newer items on the hobby blog. Any amount helps as I use it for the progress of the site and for travels that would be photographed for talk on this site. I wont use it for myself in anyway just for the sole purpose and furthering this site that I enjoy so much. Thanks!
