Spocon 2014 – Stitch For Stitch and Sans My Goomba
An Introduction:
It’s a Mii… Daisy.
This convention marked the first time I appeared upon stage in a gown entirely
created by myself and with myself. Cue the vintage Billy Idol music… “Cosplay
with myself… duh duh duhn Cosplay with myself… When your Goomba moves and you
still want geeky fun… you gotta cosplay with yourself?” (Syllabically that was
not a proper type of re-do to that classic tune, yet… what do you want from me?)
I am still lamenting about the superficial loss of my Goomba! For she is not
gone from this earth merely moved from the conservative eastern side of
Washington State. She now resides within the western very progressive free
gathering berry side of the state in a small town akin to a video game featuring
a Zombie takeover. Yes, it is true… she lives far from me and without any Yoshi
to ride upon or Lakitu cloud to ride within… what is a girl to do? Well, I
suppose what I did do… get lost in a city and lament silently and now overtly
about such a change within my convention scene. I love me some Goomba is what I
am saying! Could I make it any more obvious? Now on to serious business….
