20 Years and Beyond

That's me, kicking it old school in a black Team Rocket outfit made by a dear friend of mine (the ruffled vest and skeletal choker are my own personal touches)...but I've a new and special accessory: a 20th Anniversary Pikachu I got at Wal-Mart for only $24.99. (Apparently, Amazon is wanting a whopping $50.00 for these special Pikachu plushies, so I was lucky.)

My friend and I are getting a Team Rocket group together for New Mexico (we were inspired by the Team Rocket group in Arizona). After intense thought and effort, I've come up with my Team Rocket identity: because I love all things Goth and read macabre literature like H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe, my Team Rocket name is Agent Poe. Because we can personalize our outfits and personas, I've added my beloved black ruffled vest that my dad got me from Hot Topic and the skeleton choker he got me from the Pyramid Collection catalog. I was going to draw a pentacle on each glove but forgot to pack a permanent marker. I'll add them later.

HAPPY 20TH ANNIVERSARY, POKEMON! HERE'S TO 20 YEARS AND MANY MORE!
