webbgirlHaving a great time at Disneyland for the weekend. It turns out that I'm here at the same time as BlizzCon just like last year. It's kind of weird being in a con hotel when I'm not actually at a con. :)
While I'm at Disneyland I'm trying to figure out elements for my Halloween costume. I don't normally dress up, but my roommate is throwing a party so it seems the right thing. What I have in mind at the moment is a Disney Princess "The Later Years". Cigarette hanging out of the mouth, a high ball glass (or maybe martini glass) in hand, tattooed up. I was thinking of wearing a wife beater tank and a robe and painting a tattoo on my chest that says "Beast" in it. I'm trying to decide if I need a tiarra as well. Not sure what else...
On the "MY EYES! MY EYES!" end of things. There was this girl in one of the Disney gift shops whose pants were so low that when she knelt down to get something? I COULD SEE HER ENTIRE NAKED ASS!! I'm sorry, but that's really the point to start re-thinking one's wardrobe choices.

In other stuff, while I'm studiously procrastinating on class assignment for the week, I'm putting together an intro post for Stephanie Brown aka Batgirl.
I just re-read the current "Batgirl" run while sitting at work yesterday (it was a reeeallly slow day) and it is solidly in first place as my favorite book at the moment. Stephanie is such a great example of how well a female character can be written as "kick-ass" without becoming the cliched "kick-ass". Plus the supporting characters in the book are fairly awesome as well.
So, I'll be doing and intro post for that and then I'm thinking it'll be a "Red Robin" post.
In other words, be forewarned that I will be attempting to pimp folks into comic books. :)
