Arisia, day 1

Won a ribbon for dressing up like Dr. Clayton Forrester...ate Pocky at a Pocky bar and drank punch out of a cup that glowed...watched circus performers from five feet away as they walked on glass and contorted in mid-air, to a galloping brass band...spent $5 to replace the "lost" badge I had clipped to my breast pocket at the time¹...heroically fixed a dead speaker in the middle of Rocky Horror through the magic of cable-wiggling...kept kdsorceress company in the land of chair trees until the guy finally came to lock up...paid $20 to a taxi driver who was owed $17 because he didn't have singles.

Tomorrow: I give blood and (hopefully!) see Joel & Trace. Then I dance like an idiot for four hours.

¹ I am an idiot.
