Hm, I just ordered my first set of wings from her, so I'll see what I get...hopefully they're okay. I'm sure they will be ok, I just could have made them myself for way cheaper. If they come chipped like mine simply cut it a bit so that it looks straight. How exactly am I supposed to wear them - just got them today and they look like they're falling down as though Fluttershy has a broken wing. I'm not even really sure I want to go as Fluttershy because my dress is a bit tight still but we'll see - I still have six days and might drop some water weight...

That was a truly epic video...*stomps hooves in applause*

I found my ears and horn from this girl at etsy - http://www.etsy.com/shop/yayahan?ref=seller_info She ships REALLY fast too. I'm leaning toward a wig at Amazon - the ones I like on eBay still are coming from China and wouldn't be here on time.

I'm searching for a blue wig that hopefully can be here by the time of the convention. So many are from China though and wouldn't be here on time. I get paid on Friday so that's the earliest I could order it. I found one on Amazon that's like $35 and would arrive in 3-5 days after shipping, but I didn't know if anyone else had any other (and maybe less expensive) ideas. I thought of another character I could go as and the outfit and such wouldn't be hard to get but I'd need to be sure I can get a wig. Or if you even know of anywhere in the Tacoma area (since Bremerton no longer has a costume shop) that would be great.

You get Diamond Tiara... I wish for chocolate.

It's great to see someone else from Kitsap going! I've always wondered how many bronies are in our fair county. I've had a couple of people say they like my pony shirts but not sure if they're bronies or not (this does not include the girl at the Y who was obviously not because she asked if the character on my shirt was Pinkie Pie...it was Apple Bloom...)

I can be shy too, which is probably why I'm going as Fluttershy. Of course once you get to know me then you'll see I'm a lot like Pinkie Pie at heart Nice to meet you - maybe we'll run into each other at the convention. I'm looking to get acquainted with more people too since I have no friends who are going.

Glad you were able to get a badge - I look forward to seeing you at the convention!

I'm almost ashamed to admit when I first saw the ponies, my co-worker and I made fun of them. See, I work at a children's dental office and one day in our supplies for the kids, we got some MLP: FiM stickers and we laughed at them because we had both been fans of G1 when we were kids. My co-worker dubbed them 'donies' (implying they looked like dollar store knockoffs) and we had a good laugh. Fast forward a month or two and I start noticing a bunch of pony memes on the I Can Has Cheezburger site...strange, I thought, is this actually a show or something? Now their pony site is called 'My Little Brony' and I didn't know what a brony was so I looked it up and I was like "Adults watch this?" I wondered what the appeal was - I like animated shows too, but often anime or Disney movies, things like that. The animation didn't look great from the little that I had seen and so I figured it was a 2nd rate show that wouldn't last past the first season. Didn't know or realize exactly how BIG the brony community was, of course. It still took a while, but around Christmas of 2011, I was bored during my week-long work staycation and after looking at the memes on Cheezburger, I said to myself: "You know, I'm going to watch an episode just to see what others see in this show...why is this so popular?" So I started at the very beginning - episode 1. The beginning of the story piqued my interest, I lost almost complete interest with the theme song (I have since made peace with the theme song, but it took a while), but I had made up my mind to watch the entire episode. Still wasn't entirely sold by the end, but I did want to see if the ponies ended up in eternal darkness or not and the plot of these episodes brought me back to G1 and some of the adventures there. So, I watched the second episode...not bad, okay, I could see a little of what people were talking about. So, I figured I'd watch a third episode that wasn't part of a 2-parter just to be well-rounded in my final opinion. Before I knew it, I had spent my entire week off of work watching ponies...I was humming the songs, checking out Target's toy section to see what they had, and confiding to two of my best friends that I was into it and suggested they watch the show (they are now bronies). I wasn't sold on the animation at all - that took a while. There were times I'd look at it and think "that's supposed to be a pony?" However, I was comparing it to G1 and that was wrong because while FiM has roots in G1, they are different generations and really different shows. But once I realized Lauren Faust was the mastermind behind it (and being a fan of the Powerpuff Girls), the animation style then made sense. Now I think the ponies are absolutely adorable. So here I am roughly six months later with pony toys on my shelf and ponies on the desktop and a Derpy poster on the wall, pony shirts, Derpy keychain...and a ticket to Everfree NW. Brony and PROUD!!

I'm the age of a lady (30), but people often think I'm much younger. A lady in my church recently told me she thought I was 22 or 23 and the lady at the movies carded me last month to see an R-rated movie (17 was a few years ago...)
