I do not have a picture of it. :< I WILL GET ONE! But for now, rest assured! It is hideous. And now we have proof. So, okay, see. My father has this awful tie that his mother bought him as a gag gift (thinking she'd raised him better than that. I'm sure on one level or another, she knew he would actually wear it, though...). It's white and orange and, I dunno, other colours. And fuzzy. It's the fuzzy bit that really sells its ... hideousity (new word!?).
Well, Periwinkles (a jewelry chain) had a contest for the ugliest tie over the weekend and, knowing he had a truly unfortunate tie, and tempted by the prize of ... some amount of money (apparently in the form of a gift certificate to the store and not just free money, which had been his hope), my father entered the thing and - as you've undoubtedly figured out already - his tie won! Which is exciting. So now I can say without doubt that my father has the ugliest tie in the area. Because, you know. Jewelry store contest is totally the standard, there. (It's still awesome, okay.)
Meanwhile, my head-cast is running away from me again. Rana has now joined Hisime in having her own Facebook page I NEED TO GET A LIFE. I really don't even know why I did that. Hisime there was at least had reasoning behind it. But now the two of them are going back and forth at each other even worse than before. XD (I've changed Rana's wall from "friends only" to "everyone" for the time being, just in case anyone wants to see some of the ridiculous things are going on. I can't edit the settings of the post Rana has, but you can see the other one. Maybe I'll get bored of it soon? We can hope.)
AAAA I LEAVE FOR CHICAGO ON FRIDAY MORNING I AM SO EXCITED. But also nervous. Mostly excited! (Kind of weird, though, haha, a month ago, I was more looking forward to Chicago, because I figured BotCon would not be as awesome as OH MAN YES FINAL FANTASY CONCERT, and then BotCon was basically the best thing ever, so I am now like, can Chicago even begin to hope to top Pasadena? We'll just have to wait and see! My money's kinda on no, though.)
dnsajklf Distant Worlds concerts, you are so close. Still, even if it is not as completely fantastic, I will still have attended both halves of the concert. And I have been wanting to attend one of these ever since they first announced it way back when. I mean, they had both "20020220 Music from Final Fantasy" and "Tour de Japon", neither of which I had any hope of attending, and then "Dear Friends" never came close enough for me to get to it, and then "Distant Worlds" has kind of made a point of not matching up with my money and availability limitations, but damn it enough is, apparently, enough, and so now I am throwing myself into a bed bug hotspot just for a video game music concert. (I am a goddamned lunatic.)
(Also I've had this Japanese song about frogs stuck in my head all day. I learnt it when I was 10! WHY IS IT STILL IN MY BRAIN and whyyyy is it rattling around all of a sudden?)
