No, but you can carry my cross...

Yeah. I blame it on the enormous Romance/Sentimental turnout.

Guess it's a good thing I entered in Drama/Horror, then...

Isn't that a song from "Rent"?

oh, wait...

Worked from home. Perhaps my company's firewall is too selective...

I tried that. I tried shutting my browser down and restarting. I also tried using a different browser.

I SOOOOO want to go this year! The Mrs. and I have been itching to get back to Vegas, and this is the perfect excuse! Unfortunately, the new baby will be only three weeks old by then, so I guess we'll have to see about next year...

If I remember correctly, one year, there was this one Fate Stay Night AMV that made it into the action category and it was a winner as it was a winner in other cons 4 years prior.
