Obama action figure from Japan. I think I especially like the pose with the katana and wakizashi.

Jan. 21st, 2009 09:36 amI have been sneezing pretty much constantly since I got to work today. I know they say that feline viruses don't (or rarely) make the jump to humans, but I still feel like I caught Sora's cold.
Woo-hoo! (Recs: books and Austin hotels)
Jan. 21st, 2009 12:27 pmI have $20 in Amazon.com gift certificates. What should I buy and why?
(caveat: usually when I ask for recs, I end up not buying what people have recced, for whatever perverse reason, but I do end up putting a number on my wishlist and buying them later.)
In other news, I took the opportunity of Sora being out of it on Monday to make kanzashi (and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
myrialux helpfully came over and entertained Sora on Sunday while I made more). I need to finish them up - put them on clips and the like - so hope to have pictures of them soon. :) I'm going to the Ikkicon artist alley in Austin in early Feb, so need to increase my stock. :)
And speaking of which: anyone have any recs of a hotel/motel reasonably near downtown Austin that offers internet in its rooms (preferably wireless, preferably free, but pay and wires will do), is less than $100/night (preferably less than $75), and is not hot and cold running cockroaches?myrialux is coming down with me, but not attending the con, and will need to telecommute some on Friday.

Jan. 21st, 2009 10:39 pmSora's new toy is a long twist tie. He loves it so much that he takes it with him. A moment ago, it just came up on the desk, and then it went back down after Sora decided that I was ticked off enough, having yelled at him all day, that I was Not to be Trifled With.
...Oh damn. It's back up here. That's what you get when you have no short-term memory to speak of.

That was Sora's contribution.
