We’re supposed to move out on December 1, but we haven’t found a new place yet since we pretty much just decided this 8 seconds ago. I should probably be packing or researching how to not be homeless, but instead I’m going to blog about a less stressful time… Medieval Times!!
Cool kids me and Val
Lumi (right before she moved to China… BOO!), Amelia, and Kevin. I am so grateful to have friends with equally bad taste in restaurants and entertainment!
Loved this! Medieval Times employees in costume, on break. When I was 19, I worked at a sushi restaurant, and our uniform was a pink kimono. I was so accustomed to wearing it every day that I didn’t even notice it anymore. Before and after work, I would drive around town running errands in my hot pink kimono and wonder why everyone was looking at me funny. What? People don’t wear kimonos to the grocery store?
Party time! The show was really fun and full of bad accents and seizure-inducing light shows. They also made a little girl in the audience cry when they shone a spotlight on her and declared her the fairest maiden in the land.
Forget the knights – my favorite cast member is this guy who scoops the horse poo. It takes a real man to clean a litterbox!
Yume, Lumi, Amelia, me and Val hanging in the ginormous gift shop after the show. This is a blurry picture post because I had just lost my brand new camera at a Die Antwoord show a few nights prior (alcohol makes me smart), so crappy cell phone pics are all I got.
Medieval hand dryer
We ordered some drinks and headed over to the “Knight Club.” Yume swore that last time she was here, the Knight Club was swarming with hotties in armor. So we waited and waited and waited…
And waited…
Not one knight showed up! I want a refund!
Afterwards, we went to Walmart so Amelia could load up her suitcase with boxes of Kraft mac ‘n’ cheese to impress her boyfriend and roommates back home in England. Look at her, she’s like a little kid in a candy store! Haha English people love mac ‘n’ cheese and Taco Bell. Yes, I just made a generalization about an entire country.
This is serious business.
An older woman noticed us laughing and taking pictures of Amelia. She approached me and whispered in total seriousness, “Are you kids taking her picture for the ‘People of Walmart’ site? That’s not nice!”
Beer and boxed pasta mission accomplished! I love this random lady in line cheering us on.
Then we headed over to Comic Bug in Manhattan Beach for the Defective Geeks 5 year anniversary party. Hello Chrissa, Yume, Kevin, Amelia, and Alcuin!
Jenny Rae was there with her famous cake balls!
I bought a whole damn box
Chrissa got some yums too!
We got hungry again and decided to go for another round of dinner at In-N-Out.
Our table was one seat short, so Amelia got banished to the loner table!
I don’t think she minded.
Alright guys, I’m going to be super sales-y and end this post with a reminder that I’m moving in less than two weeks and have SO MUCH STUFF to get rid of!
I’m having a storewide sale on my Etsy shop of vintage horrors. Use the code PARTYTIME for 20% off your entire purchase!
I’ve also listed the very last of my Kryolan stash and other eyelash stuff on eBay for super dirt cheap – like, pocket change cheap. Here’s the link to that!
XOXO

Oh that’s so exciting that you’re moving to LA!
Oh shoot! Sorry for the slow reply, this comment went into spam for some reason. Boo!
Yes, after all these years of whining about how hot and sweaty and trafficky LA is, I am coming to join you down south! Let’s see how long I last driving like an Asian granny.
No way, you’re moving to LA??
Not that it makes a huge difference to ME, I’m still in little ol’ Central CA..
But I think I see you more in LA than I do in SF, so it works out! :-D
Good point, my friend! In that case, I look forward!
whereabouts? i’m in fresnooooooo
Eee, now I can’t stalk you when I visit friends back home! B-)
Also, I hate using hand dryers that aren’t an Xlerator or a Dyson one. They feel so wimpy in comparison.
I like that you not only know the names of different hand dryer companies, but you also have favorites. You’re not weird at all. ^__^
oh does that mean you will go to disneyland with me next time i head down there?
Yes m’am! I plan on getting a season pass! Please come visit! :-D
Ah fully jealous you went to Medieval Times, i really wanted to go when we were in town but we didn’t have time. And the pirate one too! Nothing makes me hungrier than salty pirates swinging from the rafters :D :D
I still have to go to the pirate one! I heard it’s not as good, but that’s okay. I like going to these things with the absolute lowest expectations possible!
if its worse then i kind of want to go more, i like really terrible themeing the best, ha ha ha!
HAHA we definitely need to hang out sometime then! ^__^
wow is great to see how Sugarpill has grown up so much! I remember the first post in your blog months before the launch! and now you’re opening a second office!! Your cats will be super happy! Btw I love the limited ed. @$#% (I think I’m missing a symbol haha…)and the Pill kitty keychain! I touched it after swatching the eyeshadow and the cat’s face got pink! I managed to clean it successfully XD
Can’t wait for the new releases! <3
Thanks, pretty girl! I can’t believe you remember that post… it feels like ages ago!
I’m so happy you like the @#$%! And don’t worry, I always forget the order of the symbols too. The only way I can remember it is if I’m on a regular keyboard and the symbols are listed in order! ^__^
Ohh the other day I realized exactly that!! the only one that is not in order is “!” but I remember its the last one of the name hahaha
I just got a silly funny idea lol, since cats love to jump on the keyboard and “type”, maybe PillKitty wants to name an eyeshadow someday :D
Haha judging from past experience, the eyeshadow would probably be named ]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]][[[[
hahahaha yes 2222222222222222 XD
What I really wonder is how on earth they type an specific key combination like crtl + something and deactivate/activate things I didn’t knew they exist!
I love cats so much <3
Oh no! Lumi moved to China?? It was great seeing her again in your photos. I used to talk to her frequently on LJ and I really miss her. XOXO
Congrats on your move and your Sugarpill success. You are amazing!
HEEEEEY, TEIVA! I haven’t talked to you in SOOOO long! How the hell are you!? Geez, it’s been literally years. So nice to hear from you! Gosh, we are all LJ dinosaurs. You and Lumi were among my first 5 LJ friends. I am pretty sure she is moving back to LA someday, or maybe I’m just wishful thinking. :-( She likes to disappear from the internet, which makes it hard to stalk her in China!
Are you still making cute jewelry? Just looked up your Etsy shop and it’s empty. Hope you and the family are well!
No way LA?!? we’ll miss you guys up here
I knooowwww, I’m kind of sad about it! I’m such a Bay Are girl. You’ll have to come visit and do some shoots!
girl plz, you are moving there to be closer to Disneyland and their endless tasty treats. THEY HAVE TURKEY LEG SCENTED CAR AIR FRESHENERS!
HAHAHA you got me, I’m busted! Actually one of the first things on my agenda IS to get a Disneyland annual pass. Got my priorities straight!
Amy! Excited about your move to LA. Looking forward to hanging out once you get out here.
I’m excited but kinda freaking out! I’ve lived up here my whole life and seriously love Bay Area weather, people, and mellowness. Don’t know how I could ever get used to the heat, traffic, and crazy people in LA. It would be nice to have a fellow Bay Area friend down south! Let’s make a date to grab lunch/dinner/drinks/all of the above. How do you like living down there? What made you decide to move?
I tried sending you a text, same number? I agree that it’s quite a change from the Bay, but not everyone is crazy out here, hehe. I’m so down to meet up and be your displaced Bay Area buddy!
I moved out here to be closer to the entertainment industry as I was focused on writing. My focus has shifted lately more towards my photography and that also keeps me out here. More opportunity out here than the Bay, unfortunately.
