Packed my things and hoped I would find the top that i've been wanting all year long... Unfortunately the store was closed TT3TT In Da BUS! Woot On my way to get LOST, seriously! I took the...some of their stuff made in china... I wonder... This is a really awesome tunic. Although not meant for the uber hot days because the material is a thick cotton Still its loose and comfy

These are not the best hand-crafted bags I've seen but the way that they look like they've been hastily made adds up to their beauty. They are made by this girl who also is a digital artist .

This is the back of the "Octotote" with a second octopus. This one is brown. I'm really proud of how these look as the don't really resemble the pictures I printed off the internet at all. Heh. I...of rubber stamps for Australia and something that I can't remember for DK in MN. Ah, MN - the place I'm glad that I'm not there. I guess I'm off to play a video game until I fall asleep. meo

http://pics.livejournal.com/manage/g al?id=55 is where you can see other photos of the "Octotote". I spent all day working on it. I drew a big, brown octopus on the back as well as Tom Servo to...Sharpie marker. I drew the octopuseseses (or is it octopi? That sounds like food though.) with Sharpies.

Funny that we call all the performers "the kids" even though some of them are not only adults but actually what one could think of as old...bunnies did, since I decided not to have them sign the bag after all. They're not regular characters, and I don't even know what their signatures look like, but I did still want a reason to go meet them

...which took an hour and a half (she's a big...BIG girl/guy), put away some shoe shells, and came home. What was really good about today, though, is that I started getting character autographs on my totebag. I got six despite only having one hour, and would have gotten more if they hadn't all been going on break to avoid doppelgangers during the parade. I have tomorrow off, so I think I'll devote...
