Guess what I have today? MEETINGS! Hooray! And it's my first day shift, so I'm already really tired! Oh joy! I haven't been sleeping well lately, so that doesn't help either. -_-

Had a good weekend, though. Friday seems to have disappeared, I can't remember what I did that day. Oh wait, haha. My dad came over and we went to see Be Kind, Rewind. Fun movie. It was funny and smart for the most part, and didn't have an impossibly perfect ending. I enjoyed it. Although I'm going a bit crazy now wondering if the characters were really saying what I thought they were saying at a certain bit. For a minute my attention to the dialogue lapsed, and the next thing I knew I was thinking "Wait, did she really just ask if he was in love with him?" Anyone else see this yet? Did I mishear?

Saturday night was Anime Madness mk. II, and it was much more successful than last time. With eight people, we had double the headcount of the first try. We filled the whole sectional and still needed more seating. Fun times! :D

I seem to have learned something about the Detour folks and advance notice. Give lots of planning time, get a handful. Give a mere week's notice, get a crowd. o_O

I also found some time in there to repaint the two rod sections of my Sailor Pluto staff. I still have to sand down and repaint the top, but I'm in good shape on this project. I added the clear coat on Sunday, which should be completely safe to handle when I get home from work today, but I may need another coat of that depending on how it turns out. Man, it's beautiful. I absolutely love this prop. I also started mixing the Sharpie ink dye for my new wig, which should be ready to use tonight.

Sunday was my sister's concert, she's in a community band in the northern suburbs. After that I was at Kale's the rest of the evening working on The Plan, of which there can be no details beyond the happy fact that good progress is being made. >3

Speaking of Detour, I got enough entries to go ahead with the new fanfic contest! I was worried for a while that there might not be enough, but people do love to submit their stories at the last minute. We definitely have enough entries to at least choose one winner, if not the full three. Happy joy! :D

Yes. If you tell them too far in advance, they either don't write it down and forget, or they write it down and lose the note. Herding cats, anyone?

Heh. I was pretty amazed. I'll remember this for next time.

Yup, midnight tonight. I was mixed up for a while there, I thought it was March 2nd, but it's today. ^^; So there's still time. :)
