The Thoughts & Interests Of A Very Strange Person

I took this quiz thing to see which house I would be in from Game of Thrones last night

I got House Stark.

I actually didn’t think I would get Stark from the way the questions went, I kinda thought I was gonna get something random like Arryn or Tyrell.

But then I got my result and I threw a party in my head cuz the Starks are my favorite.

So This Is How I Spent My Day

After I got up and took a shower, I played Dead Space 2 for a bit cuz I wanted to finish my last play through before I go to training camp on Sunday, then I played Skyrim for a while to get a few more achievements.

I spent about and hour and a half with my sister cleaning our bathroom (we had let it get pretty nasty).

Traced the patterns onto the fabric for about 20 owls so I can get them sewn and stuffed and take them to camp. I’m gonna sew up the bottoms and decorate them after when we have some down time in the cabin.

Made a cheesecake, I’ve been craving cheesecake for over a week now and I always think about it after my parents have gone to bed and the mixer would be too loud and wake them up, but I finally remembered at a reasonable time tonight.

And later I’m gonna clear out the stuff left in my suitcase from LouisiAnime (I left some of my steampunk gear in there cuz I haven’t needed it and I just keep forgetting to go take it out) and possibly read a little before I go to bed. I’m almost done with A Storm of Swords but I’ve had trouble concentrating on it so I’ve been slow, but I’m gonna take it to camp with me too so hopefully I can finish that last 80 pages or so.

Now I guess I’m gonna go waste some time til I go to bed, friends are gonna be over tomorrow, we haven’t had everyone over since before LouisiAnime so it should be fun.

So last night I had a dream that I met Gavin Rossdale

…… at an anime con/graduation (I’m not even sure how that works), and I didn’t have any paper or a pen so when he walked past me I was just like “Can I please hug you?” and he said yes.

I woke up and I was like

That Moment In Dead Space 2 When….

You kill the first Tripod and it’s for sure dead dead so you go to pick up what it dropped.

And then it jumps up and roars at you like

so you’re like

then it dies again.

Disturbing Thing About Dead Space 2….

So you know that part, in the first 2 chapters or so, where you go through the apartments and find the laundry room? And there’s obviously someone in one of the washing machines?

It always bothered me that you can’t let that person out. I mean they’re still alive. you can hear them in there. But Isaac just won’t open the door to let them out.

I never understood that, like why can’t he just open the door? I must have stood there for like 10 minutes the first time I played the game trying to find a way to open the door or break the machine or something.

But nothing worked.

I just don’t understand why he can’t open the door with his hands, I don’t understand at all.

That Moment When….

You click the button to type up a text post about Dead Space….. and tumblr automatically tags Isaac Clarke…..

And suddenly I want to see Gavin Rossdale in some kind of sci-fi/horror movie……

So I went in the Gavin Rossdale tag to look for an “Into The Blue” audio post again,

but I kept getting distracted by all the adorable pictures of him and Gwen Stefani.

Why are they so freaking perfect together? I mean every single picture just screams “PERFECT COUPLE”.

EVERYONE FORGOT THEY HUNG OUT WITH ME AT LOUISIANIME. LE SOB.

I didn’t forget! We all love you Shea!

LouisiAnime 2012

I’m just gonna do a brief overview of the con, because everything kind of blurred together and I can’t remember it in chronological order anymore aside from a few things.

We got to the hotel the night before (like we usually do for cons) got pizza, and hung out in our room for a while with Dave from ASI while he waited on the rest of ASI to get there, then went to bed.

Friday we got up, went downstairs and started setting up our table, sat around at the table for a while, selling stuff and talking to people, me and Brittany went and filled out our steampunk character sheets for the LARP together at some point while everything was pretty calm and got a character mission we were supposed to accomplish by the end of the weekend (we ended up handing it off to our fellow crew member Kevin and our friend Lucas since we were busy with the table though).

And at some point while me and Brittany were walking around we also found out that Vic Mignogna and Todd Haberkorn had been by our table and we missed them so we were like

We just barely missed Todd though so we went downstairs to find him because Brittany made a Fairy Tail bracelet for him that she wanted to give him, we found him at the front desk and gave him the bracelet (which he loved, there are pictures of her putting it on him too, just go to atimeatanevent.tumblr.com and find her LouisiAnime Friday post if you want to see those and pictures of our table). After that we were all like

for a while.

Other than that all we did on Friday was go to the Marquis of Vaudeville concert (which was awesome, they’re all really nice people too) and go to some of Todd’s panels.

Saturday we did the whole “wake up, set the table up, and sit there selling stuff for a while thing” again only for the first like 2 or 3 hours there was like a mob of people there buying stuff and asking questions, it was insane and kind of awesome.

Then later in the day we went outside to film and take pictures of the LARP event, there was a whole battle between SCARS and Mentor Valora, along with some other Order members (and I won’t even try to explain SCARS and The Order for you guys that haven’t heard about it/aren’t into steampunk, if you want to know more though just check out the Wikia page here: http://scarsvsorder.wikia.com/wiki/S.C.A.R.S._vs_Order) it was a lot of fun though and I might post some of my pictures if there are any really good ones, after that we came back inside and sat at the table a while more, ended up being in the gameshow for a skit because they were short on people (and none of us have ever been in a skit of any sort before, it went well though and it made people laugh) then we broke the table down to go to Todd’s concert that night which was awesome, he sang various cover songs including Mr. Brightside by The Killers and Poker Face by Lady Gaga.

Then on Sunday we did it all once again, being the last day it was pretty slow most of the time but it still wasn’t boring, Brittany fell down the stairs and twisted her ankle, it swelled up to like twice it’s normal size but it didn’t seem too serious (she kept ice on it after the con was over and even while we were eating at Chili’s later, we also warn Brittany of stairs every chance we get now). About half-way through the day we went to get autographs from the voice actors and ended up missing the zombie horde invasion that ASI had planned, which I still wish I could have seen, they’re doing another one at a con later in the year though that we’re seriously considering vending at, so I’m not too upset about it.

After the con ended and we got everything back up to the room and ASI had finished breaking their tables down we all walked to Chili’s (after trying two other places that were either closed or messing up every order according to some of the people already there) and ate like we always do after a con, then went back to the hotel, hung out by the pool and listened to ASI’s hilarious stories about the con and other cons they’ve been to.

Then I gave Cedric a Boondock Saints bracelet that he had mentioned he wanted to order one of while he was at our table at some point that weekend (no one bought it though so I just gave him the one I had) and after he hugged and thanked me as I was talking to someone else or something (I don’t remember exactly) he grabbed my arm and I turned around to see him snapping this on my wrist

The cuff he’s been wearing for months (I saw him finish it in January when we were at their shop and he’s had it on every time I’ve seen him since then) it was a pretty cool trade.

(here’s a picture of the bracelet I gave him, it’s the second one up from the bottom)

All in all though it was an amazing con like always, our table did really well, and we had a ton of fun. I can’t wait to go back next year!
