[Aurora]

It JUST occurred to me that Rosierjay is coming! Like, the famous Rosierjay who makes the patterns. Right? That's you? How exciting!

patterns? i've made a few patterns, but i don't know if i put them online.
what kind of patterns are we talkin about?
i wish i was famous. are you thinking of DGRequiem from MH arena?

Or I might be thinking of Rosesare. I had to go back and look it up, though- sorry about that! I'm going to keep thinking you are famous, though- I might even take your picture while you aren't looking, and then talk about that time I was so close to someone famous and I took their picture, I just wish I had been brave enough to talk to them!!!

If I were still pregnant, I could blame that on pregnancy brain. I sort of miss being able to blame things on pregnancy brain.

I will not be able to attend this year.  I should have said sooner, but I lost my job at MyPillow back in May and was lucky to find one that started July 21st.  There is no way I would have enough money or prepare after everything.  Plus I have a friends birthday to go to or DnD so I'm booked.  Sorry guys.

that is too funny!! love it.  i have an self published comic and i get super hyper (and pretty stupid) when i meet new people, but so far i think that's all i'm famous for. i scared plenty of people in Japan with my hyper behavior.
