My wife was treated to a hell of a shock Saturday when her ex-husband's oldest daughter spotted her at the mall we were shopping at. While my wife and her ex get along about as well as honey badgers and any other animal she always had a good relationship with his kids. All that ended seven years ago when she left him (see my "How SAG changed my life" blog for the details).When she reconnected with them last weekend it was a really heartwarming reunion. Apparently all the kids now HATE their father and the youngest hasn't spoken to him in over a year. They all missed my wife very much and she's been a whirlwind of emotions since reconnecting with them. My wife assumed they didn't like her and wouldn't miss her but as we all know, my wife is awesome and they missed her very much. She's very happy and has been talking to them almost non-stop. I haven't seen her this happy in a long time, its been pretty great.
With Fanime fast approaching we are trying to decide who and what we want to cosplay. I definitely want to bring Ivy and Nightwing and my daughter wants to be Yui from Sword Art Online. As of right now none of us have truly made up our minds. Since we may or may not have access to a hotel room (some friends offered to let us use theirs for a staging area but we haven't made any solid decisions yet) I'm thinking whatever we cosplay will have to be worn all day at the con. While I would love to have a Titans, couples cosplay with my wife the big cape she has to wear may get pretty heavy after a while and definitely it will be HOT. I don't know, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Here's my latest youtube video.
And uh, yeah. I guess that's it for now.
