Happy Halloween!

Pac-man!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

This is me and my work team as Ms. Pac-Man and the four ghosts, Blinky (Red), Pinky (Pink), Inky (Blue) and Clyde (Orange). I'm Blinky! I made all 4 ghosts and Ms. Pac-man.

RandomFandom will be at Syracuse Heroes Expo 2008!

I got in touch with Jeff Watkin's the founder of Syracuse Heroes Expo, and managed to squeeze myself in.Yay!

Jeff is a great guy, and he's going all out to make a neat event for people in the upstate and central New York regions (and anyone who wants to travel in). Check out the Syracuse Heroes Expo website to see all he's got going on.

It's primarily Comic con, but it's got all sorts of stuff for fans of anime like a costume contest and anime screenings. They're showing Ghost Hunt, which gives them high marks in my book!

Of course because I just managed to get in touch with Jeff today (a bit of email and phone tag and a lot of procrastination on my part) that means I only have 2-3 days of prep time. EEK! I've already designed on button specifically for the con. We'll see if I have time to actually make it. I'm debating bringing my 3 inch and 1 inch press along to make custom buttons on the fly for people. Any opinions?

I also have to make my and my co-worker's Halloween costumes. I've convinced three of my co-workers to be Pac-man ghosts with me and my boss to be Pac-man. There will be pictures, oh yes, there will. Besides that I have to make another costume for a Halloween party I'm going to on Friday.

So of course, what did I spend my time doing today? Marking my manga "read" or "not read" in my book database. According to my notes so far I have 130 volumes of manga that are unread. -_- I think there are more too, because I also noticed, again, that it's missing a lot of my books. When I pack my books up to move I'll have to do a thorough inventory. According to my database stats I'm still skating just under 2,000 manga. I wonder how much it will go up after an inventory?
