There's a whole bunch of people walking around our end of Downtown today, heading for the Convention Center.

"Tekkoshocon X-2" is here.

It's a celebration of enthusiasts of Japanese Anime and all things JA-wise, from an entertainment standpoint... including "costume play". :chin:

One of my co-workers just described a man she saw heading for the Convention Center main entrance... 40-ish, balding, with a paunch, and dressed up like a character from her youngest one's favorite anime cartoon on TV: Sailor Moon. I'm not asking which one, and I think I'm glad I didn't witness this one...:yuck:

Furries =/= cosplayers.

Just sayin'

And no, I'm not either of them.

Of course we knew that. However, as a Dalek you make a very sexy tin can. :lol:

Suffice to say... there's been a small but steady stream of, ah, interesting outfits going past our doors. And no camera handy, dagnabit.

Jessie has suddenly gotten very interested in Doctor Who. (She likes the idea of putting a minitaure windmill-type structure in the flower garden... one that is actual a Dalek in disguise.)

But now you have me worried about what she's REALLY up to...

LOL no reason to apologize. No offense meant and definitely none taken here. Just pointing it out.

I used to have a Reptar toy that sat on my radios, now that you mention it. I think he's extinct now. Where is he?

I exaggerated anyway. She wasn't really radioactive.

He's not extinct, he grew a bit and ran off with the furries.

Coming home from work yesterday, down on the outbound Subway ("T") platform at Wood Street, there was a little boy, about 8 or 9, wearing an Astro Boy headpiece & costume. He looked kind of cute.

Standing behind him was a man obviously his father. Also wearing an Astro Boy headpiece & costume. He looked kind of frightening.
