Even though I came back in the wee hours two days ago, I&#8217;ve still not had much of a chance to sit and rest.  My brother decided to visit me this week, and he was at my house already when I got back (asleep on the couch).  He had spent the evening with Leon, I later found out.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, we went to the Jelly Belly factory tour (I got to see it when it was actually in production!) and then Marine World.  I didn&#8217;t pace myself and got nauseous, so I got to playing with my cell phone while my brother rode the rides over and over &#8212; the lines were non-existent, so he kept going on everything twice.  I saw the Stargate motion\/show\/Star Tours thing, which almost put me over the tipping point&#8230; the motion was a bit too jerky, and not quite in sync with the video (which was also too blurry.)  We also saw Shouka, the new killer whale they&#8217;ve been advertising the heck out of around here.  It&#8217;s a&#8230; killer whale like any other, I suppose.  She&#8217;s pretty small, she must be young, and she didn&#8217;t have as many tricks learned as some of the ones I saw back in Sea World in my youth.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we went to Great America, and I was able to pace myself a bit better, although it still involved playing with my cell phone while my brother rode on certain rides over and over.  The lines today were a bit longer, but still only about five minutes at the longest.  I spent a bit too much money on the fool&#8217;s task of winning a Gamecube at one of the carnival games, and showed off a bit at DDR to some kids.  We left early, then went and saw Spiderman 2 and Fahrenheit 9\/11 at the Mercado.<\/p>\n<p>As for the latter half of AX, I&#8217;ll write about that later&#8230; I&#8217;ve got photos to upload before I can tell stories&#8230; yeah, that&#8217;s my excuse.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I think I need to lie down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, I was at Anime Expo, as my last entry indicated.
