Well, I figured I should go to at least /one/ convention this year, and this one convention is SacAnime (http://www.sacanime.com). It's 3 miles from where I live, so I don't have to worry /too/ much about getting there. It might be the last one I go to until I get another job, so I'll have to be sure to enjoy it a lot.
I'll post in here with ... pictures and stuff when I get back. I'll also be posting updates on my twitter (http://twitter.com/icekitsune), so keep your eyes on that if you're following me (or not). And if you're there, be on the lookout for some skinny guy wearing an Infinite Typewriters (http://www.goats.com) t-shirt, blue fox ears and tail. That would be me.

The ride that was supposed to take me and Raine to SacAnime (http://www.sacanime.com) overslept, so we ended up walking. The directions Google Maps (http://maps.google.com) gave us was highly inaccurate, thus having us have to walk all the way around the Cal Expo center, over the freeway...it was a 5 mile walk. And my backpack was heavy because it had my tail and other things in it. But...we made it there. Then, there was the long line for registration. After getting in line, we saw a girl with this sign that said, "You just lost the game." Fffffuuuuu-.... Oh, we also saw someone cosplaying Ruki Nonaka from Digimon Tamers, and there was someone with a Gomamon plush.
Anyway, after registration, we checked out the dealer's room and artist's alley. Then, we had lunch. The place had a good deal, too. All you can eat sandwiches, soup, pizza, and salad, dessert, and drinks for $10. We then went to the ATM to take out money for the dealer's room, to find out that it was out of order. So we tried going to CostCo to use theirs. It was out of service, too. And, the nearest place that had an ATM after that -- would have been too far to walk.
Though, fortunately, some of the dealers took credit cards. So, I bought a Shaymin (Sky Forme) plush and a figurine (which I found out I have to assemble myself), and eventually took a break to sit down. During this break, I saw a girl cosplaying as Ness. Also I found that my regular camera's batteries died (thanks for telling me beforehand, camera), and my phone was running low. In fact, I was /barely/ able to get a picture of said girl, and it didn't come out too well. So hopefully, I'll see her again tomorrow for a retake -- with my camera that should have fully charged batteries by then.
Other than that, I just traded DeviantArt info, and left some grafitti in someone's sketchbook (hey, the sign requested it!). I gave 'em my e-mail, dA name, and a link to ParaBound (http://parabound.ath.cx).
That's about it for today. I'm going to need to lessen the load in my backpack because it's just too damn heavy. But it was fun. :D

So it's an anime convention? Those are always fun. I been going near my town for the past 2 years now and i've always had a good time.

Yeah. I had fun there, saw some nice costumes. A lot of girls liked my fox tail because it was fluffy and soft. :3
I'm going to write the report in the morning, because I am just too tired right now.
