…well, it was comfortable, at least.

Yeah, when I finally sat down and started trying to put some new costumes together, I realized that even after living in DC for a year, I had no CLUE where to find decent cosplay supplies. I’m still working on that, actually.

(Historical Notes: I never did end up cracking that riddle, though you also need to understand that the overwhelming majority of my “cosplay stuff” didn’t come from any costume store to begin with, but rather was cobbled together from stuff I picked up at Goodwill and the like.  So even when I DID find a genuinely good costume shop in DC, it didn’t actually help me much.)
