aka, I went home for the holiday and, since Liz had just gotten me Madara and Kohaku nuis, I decided to bring the boys along! It was quite the trip because we were also traveling with two of our cats, soooo why not document the highlights?

Part of the trip - besides visiting my family for Thanksgiving + my mom's 70th birthday - was to bring Genevieve to Josh and Emmy. We tried really hard with her, especially since she's so sweet, but she does not get along with other cats. The shelter we got her from lied/misrepresented her, I guess????? But she wasn't jiving with our household, no matter how much we tried. And now that Josh and Emmy have their own house and can have pets, they offered to take her in. So!!! She had to travel with us, and I didn't want to leave Lumos behind...so she came too XD


locked and loaded in the car, right before getting on the road!!!
Anyway!!! This is about to be a bit of a long post: I originally made it on tumblr and it was very image heavy, and this is....even more so, because I found more pictures from the trip XD I HAD A LOT OF FUN AND TOOK MANY PICTURES AND NOT A LOT OF TIME ONLINE BECAUSE TIME WITH FRIENDS IS IMPORTANT!!!!!!! ♥

which is to say, I'm putting the rest of this entry behind a cut so I don't just destroy everyone's reading pages~

( come join me on a maaaaagical adventure!!! )

And that's my whole trip!!!!!!!!!!! Kudos to anyone who goes through the whole thing~ I had a lot of fun taking pics along the way, despite the fact that I've done this road trip so many times...so I guess nuis are the way to succeed? ;D

OH MY GOD. FREAK OUT TIME.

The YuGiOh card game nationals are in PITTSBURGH this year! HOLY SHIT!!! PLUS I think there might still be time for me to qualify! There regionals are next Sunday so if I magically get really good at ygo in the next week I can go and try to qualify~! Even if I don't I'm totally going to go to watch the nationals.

AHHH I AM RUNNING AROUND THE HOUSE IN GLEE. THIS IS EPIC!!! The nationals are the weekend of the video game music concert and the one before Otakon so July is basically going to be the best month ever. AHHHHHH!!!

Okay, so this week is going to be spent hunting around for YGO cards...god, I will be so broke but so excited...

oh man oh man, it's been too long. I've just been SO BUSY.

TEKKOSHOCON. IT WAS AMAZING. SO AMAZING!!!!!! AHHHHH! :D :D :D This is only part one, I cannot be arsed to write all of it down...so much!!!
