Oni-con 2005

I have let myself be talked into taking the kid to the second annual Houston Anime convention, Oni-con, tomorrow.

I let myself be talked into going to the first one last year and if you seach the site I am sure you will find the post and pictures. I am too lazy and tired to look right now.

I forgot to post about my trip to the Dentist last Monday. A week ago today one of my crowns popped out. He was too busy to see me then so he directed me to go to any drugstore, but temporary cement and stick it in myself. While not thrilled about this I did as instructed and it worked pretty well until Monday when Kelly, my favorite dental asst. easily took it out. I complained about some soreness in my gums while he was preping me to put the crown back so he took a look and decided to take an Zray. The long and short of it is I have to go back this Monday for a root canal, he gave me some antibiotic but I woke up this morning and my jaw felt swollen. I now have a stronger antibiotic. I have pain pills too but I won't be able to use them because this convention is near where I used to work by the Astrodome and I don't want to be groggy on the long drive back.

So if you happen to be at Oni-con and see a bemused older guy,maybe in pain, maybe with a laptop say hi.

The kid wanted to know why I was bringing the laptop. She is meeting some friends so I thought while they were running around I could sit and watch some anime or something.

"Dad, no one watches anime at an anime convention!"

Who knew.
