CORGI FAIRE WAS AWESOME! *3* So many corgis--at least around two hundred, I think, if not more! I was surprised that mine were probably the smallest adult corgis there--I knew that they're small, but this really emphasized how tiny they are for corgis! I got lots of compliments on them, and tons of people asking how old they are under the assumption that they're puppies. One lady was telling me that Honey is a classic, old-fashioned corgi, which was cool to hear. Apparently, they used to breed corgis with less white on the face or no white on the face, darker red, and an extremely foxy face, all of which are attributes Honey has. There were several corgi puppies around, too, and of course they were incredibly adorable. I enjoyed seeing the variation of corgis, as far as size, colors, markings, coat types, and so on, and there is something awesome and surreal about looking around and seeing corgis wherever you look. The corgi costume contest was amazing and hilarious! So many corgis in fantastic costumes. Honey and Hooch participated in corgi limbo. They didn't win because their leashes knocked down the limbo pole, but it was fun anyway.

I bought some little corgi items there--a few t-shirts, a plate that has art of a corgi puppy on it, a magnet, a book, a dog shirt that is a bit too big for Honey, some free corgi magazines, and I won a really cute corgi pillow in the raffle! I didn't even spend much money, as a table was selling things for really, really cheap. Anyway, it was great fun. During the event, there was a field just outside the building where it was held and everyone including myself would go to the field and let the corgis free to run around and play with each other.

I am ashamed to say I was so distracted by all the corgis that I never got to taking pictures, but I assure you there were TONS of people with cameras and I will post their pictures instead once I find uploads of them! :D

To make a great day even better, after that I stopped at Toys'R'Us and got an Arceus, and Toys'R'Us also had the Flareon, Jolteon, and Glaceon figures I've been wanting. :D One of each, and naturally I grabbed them all.

Now I'm super sleepy and debating whether or not to take a nap for an hour or two... Leaning towards taking one because if I don't I suspect I'll do nothing but lie around and not want to write. After that, I have NaNo to work on! I'm still quite ahead, though--I broke 20k last night!

Of course, now that it's NaNo I want to watch a bunch of anime, but if I watch a bunch of anime I'll feel guilty that I'm not spending the time on NaNo instead, so the anime watching will perhaps have to wait until December, or at least until I finish my 50k.

This weekend has been lots of fun! A great write-in on Friday evening, helping with AnimalSave yesterday and seeing This Is It (which I was quite impressed by), and Corgi Faire and TRU today!
