Well, THAT'S a first.

kproche and bovil in my mailbox this afternoon! Well, not them for real - they certainly wouldn't fit in the mailbox. It was a newsletter for Costume Con 26, but there they were grinning up at me.
Here I sit, sorting through images to use in my presentation. To my eternal sadness, the Tokyo National Museum's image links to the Ippen Shonin scroll are still not working, however, I found a similar picture scroll at e-Museum with some wonderful clothing details of the people waiting to hear Ippen Shonin preach, such as this one. Look at the guy at the left hiding behind his fan, in a two tone hitatare kamishimo with his retainer holding a parasol for him. Lots of women in traveling hats (including the nun down front) or with kosode over their heads. If you look carefully at the oxcart on the left, you can even see the noble lady inside peeping through the blinds!

I don't really know how to tell you this, but our affair is over. I think I realized it when I changed tennis shoes at the mental hospital, when I saw you spit at my father. I'm sure you're ashamed enough to understand that Extreme Makeover sucks. I'm returning your ring to you, but I'll keep your left ear as a memory. You should also know that I never openly mocked a passionate interest for mice.
Go burn,
