Anime North 2011 - Days 2 & 3

In all the glory of working as a dealer at Anime North I was completely unable to look at the program. Seriously, didn't even hold one in my hands. Sure, I saw one as a customer flipped through it in front of me as we were trying to figure out how late the dealer's room was open on Saturday, but I didn't read anything in it other than the hours I had to work.

The second and third days were just as fun. I picked up a couple neat snacks (it's mandatory at an anime convention to try weird imported snacks), the best of which being these fish cookies that are made of the same stuff as ice cream cones and filled with bubbled chocolate. YUMMY! It's like a creamy Aero bar filling in a light crunchy crisp. So good! I just wish they had had more of the strawberry flavour because I'm weird and like fake strawberry... sue me.

I snagged a pair of funky headphones. The big over-the-ear kind that are pink with black stars. I think that they will cause even more people to think I'm trying to look like Ramona Flowers from Scott Pilgrim, but as I usually say I'd rather be Gert from Runaways any day. :D

Don't get me wrong, I liked Ramona at the beginning, but she got so frigid near the end of the series, where as Gert... well, she got frigid in a different way I guess.

I also grabbed a new duffle bag for the gym and a few items for my future Steampunk costume.

All in all it was a very good weekend. I'm tired and looking forward to a day off tomorrow, but it was well worth it. Anime North continues to be my favorite convention to work at!
