   *nodnod* Those were fun days.  I'm trying to remember, I might have   
   managed to eke my way onto the Pink List at one point.  I know I   
   definitely wasn't on the Black List though.  Was there a neutral list?   
   I can't remember.   
      
   In the end, I do rather like Chibi-Usa herself (particularly in S), but   
   there are times I wish she'd disappear (bad choice of words?) so that   
   Usagi would quit being an idiot.  It doesn't help that Chibi-Usa is just   
   plain intelligent, so *anything* she says will make Usagi look a bit   
   dumber. ^_-

   Haha!  Random memory trivia!  It's a curse, really.  I mean, ask SK.   
   Talk about conversational whiplash.  We'll be talking about one thing,   
   it'll spark a memory of something else, and boom, he's sitting there   
   with his eyes crossed and wishing I'd shut up. ^_-

   Yeah, I saw the kids looking up her skirt (which was especially fun   
   since we just started watching Card Captor Sakura a few days ago, and   
   caught Tomoyo's camera staring straight up Sakura's skirt at one point),   
   but I don't think I noticed the kid picking his nose.  I'm rather glad   
   of it. ^_-

   Oo, you got some pictures I didn't see on A Fan's View.  I didn't flip   
   through all of your pages, but I'm guessing you got that absolutely   
   drop-dead gorgeously made costume, Sailor Moon group (I think everyone   
   was in Eternal form).  I drooled for awhile. ^_-

   I've seen a few second-hand through A Fan's View, but not many.  It's   
   probably the same guy. ^_-  I've gotten to the point that I'm   
   'recognizing' people at conventions now.  It's sad, simply because I   
   still haven't been to one myself. :p
