Since I entered the #youmacon hall cosplay comp, I can watch the masquerade from the Green Room. Sure, why not have a change of pace!
VAT awards ceremonies starting. #youmacon
I’ve missed a lot at #youmacon with the shoe fail and leaving my camera in my room. But I’m just happy to be here! ^_^
Sailor Mars judging went pretty well. But major problems walking. Tagged out, Mamimi is in early. #youmacon
Goal! Checkin complete! #Youmacon
Checkpoint! 220 miles out and all is well! #Youmacon
Checkpoint! 135 miles out and racing into the dawn! #Youmacon
I think I really need to become more flexible in my thinking sometimes. After all hope of going to Youmacon seemed lost in the gusts of a hurricane, work, and money, it turns out that I will be able to attend! In my despair, I had already canceled my room reservation, but once it became apparent that I could go on Saturday and Sunday, I was lucky enough to get a room in the hotel across the street from the Renaissance Center.
Going two days also saved me a great deal of money and untangled some issues at work. Yay! I’ve gotten so used to going 3 or 4 days, that the compromise of 2 days just wasn’t even on the radar screen. And it gives me some more time with my awesome wife who made it back safely from Philadelphia! Of course that meant that I had to finish my Sailor Mars cosplay, which I have just done by completing the tiara! It’s not perfect, but I’m happy enough with it that I may enter the Hall Cosplay competition if everything times out right. Otherwise I’m just going to enjoy the heck out of showing it off and being thankful that God even cares about this part of my life.
Well time to finish this tiara for my Sailor Mars cosplay. Woo hoo! #Youmacon!
