This will likely be my last post to the FFML.  I actually unsubbed a
 couple of days ago, but resubbed just to send this.  Because I had
 promises to keep.  :)

And miles to go before you sleep?
  
Saw a dress-up Rei doll.

I've started sleeping with the Rei doll I bought there. Stop looking at me 
like that, dammit!!!!!!!!!

 Afterwards, we went back to the con.  Nothing much seemed to be going
 on.  Lara, Sean, and I passed the hotel bar.  We looked in and decided
 to sit down.  The con had come down to this:  "We're ordering!"  First
 round was on me; I bought Lara a Sloe Screw, Sean a rum thingy, and
 myself a Diet Coke.

First and ONLY round, from what I saw. And thanks to you and Sean for letting 
me bogart that Rum; I'd been awake for forty hours and NEEDED that drink.
  
 Lots of looking at semi-schedules.  Now we're going to Yaohan's, a
 Japanese supermarket/bookstore/restaurant.

Did I ever thank you for springing for the gas money? If not, I do so now. 
And apologize for getting us all lost.
  
 I left before the judging was completed so I could see Castle of
 Castigliorno, the Lupin III movie by Miyazaki.  Despite being on the
 most recent schedule, it too was cancelled at the last moment.  Again, I
 was quite angry.

You should have been there Sunday morning when the crowd of irate Eva fans 
almost lynched a video coordinator for scheduling "Death and Rebirth" at 1:00 
A.M and not posting a schedule until ten minutes before it started
  
 [Lara grabs the notebook]
 
 Travis talks about plasma balls.
 
 [Richard grabs it back]

I thought this was "plastic" balls.
  
 Anna joined us and showed us the cels she'd purchased.
 
 At 1:40pm, the fire alarm went off.  The con staff ran towards the
 dealer room at a dead run - a bit of an overreaction, in my opinion.

"Save the anime!!! No, you fool, don't help that old woman, grab the Mahou 
Tsukai Tai boxed sets and run like the wind!!!"
  
 [Mercutio asks for and receives the notebook]
 
 Someone besides Lara HAS to write in this, might as well be me.

You know.... you spend HOURS thinking about what funny thing you'll inflict 
upon Richard if you get the chance..... then the time comes, and you choke. 
-_-;;
