Nah, you're still much closer to my age than his. I'm ok dating someone a few years older, or even a year or so younger, but not too wide an age gap.

Oh! I didn't tell that we went to our first Anime convention last weekend. It was put on by an Anime group that meets over at the University of Central Florida.

Here's a link to their site: JACON

We had a really good time. When I get some pics scanned I'll post a few of them. The costumes some these people had were incredible. The most popular, going by costume was Inuyasha and Kagome. The next most popular costume was Ed Elric. There was one group that had almost everybody represented: Ed, Mustang, Hawkeye, Hughes, Sensei, Lust, Greed, and Envy.....no Al.

My daughter made herself a costume of Yuna from the game Final Fantasy X. She must have had at least 20 requests for her picture. She did a really good job on her costume.

We'll probably go again next year.

Corin would have liked this one event called the Wasabi Animusical. What they did was have an hour long show which combined show tunes and anime. Our favorite was the song "Tomorrow" (from Annie) with Cowboy Beebop. Annie comes out and starts singing "Tomorrow" when she gets to the end of the chorus Vince from Cowboy Beebop walks out and shoots her with his pistol. It was very funny. Unfortunately copyright issues make it so they won't make any videos available.
