Dinner with Maria at Ruby's in Fullerton (20-May-2009)

The picture of snobird's daughter was taken at work, in the cubicle formerly occupied by colleency.

Anyone out there want to help me track my postcard mailings, please?

Basically this means that a few times a year, a postcard shows up in the mail; you send me an e-mail at the address printed on your address label to let me know you got it. (It also means you'll get colorful "Animé Los Angeles" postcards you can use to decorate your fridge or cubicle.)

The idea is that every 100th postcard will result in someone letting me know it arrived safely. It'll increase my costs by 1%, but it'll help me improve the reliability and promptness of the mailings.

I'm especially looking for USA addresses that are not already on my animelosangeles mailing list. Drop me an e-mail (or send it to chaz@postcardart.info) with your mailing address, if you're willing to volunteer for this.

( In the Crowne Plaza parking lot, there was an encampment... )

( I'd promised Hukilau I'd be available to volunteer anywhere he needed me... )

( The pool area was the main ''floor'' of the convention... )

( Most of the hotel's lawn next to the pool was covered with the stage and with booths from all sorts of vendors... )

Melissa liked the Hula Girls Hawaiian Shave Ice. She had banana, bubble gum, and cotton candy flavors. (right)
