when mario did the vine dance
A random memory… I remember when I was a kid, and my dad got a Nintendo. We would sit around for ages playing Super Mario Brothers together. And when we played alone, we made sure we told the other what we’d accomplished, what secrets we’d found, what funny things happened. It was so much fun. One of the things we…

when we teamed up with Buffy
Operation: Clean up My Life got off to a great start yesterday! I washed the Beetle and cleaned it out. It’s so clean! It’s marvelous! I got most of my room cleaned. Cleaned off the shelves, reordered my books, put my DVDs in alphabetical order, cleaned out my video cabinet, put my CDs back, cleaned out the drawers of my…

Anna Valerious
dude… that chick from Van Helsing. I totally want to make her costume. The one she’s wearing on the wallpaper on the official site – the corset with the pants and sword. That’s freaking awesome. Wish I had room to make it this year. Maybe I can cancel Megara and make it for Halloween.

when Kenny G drove like a jackass
Two things: 1. Watching the local news just now. Newscaster: “Denzel Washington is burning up the screen in Man on Fire. Many young men in the area are hoping to become the next Denzel Washington or… the next Halle Berry!” So… young Memphis area men are hoping to be the next Halle Berry? More power to you. 2. On the…

when i had a million projects due
Ew. Ok I’ve been told I look like a few celebrities in my time, like that girl from the Lost in Space movie. That one I just kinda was like, eh, whatever. But this one I just heard…. Ew no! No I don’t! I tried to stay up all night last night working on the poster, but gave up around…

when i had to choose between mtac and midsouthcon
SO my phone completely kicked the bucket. They gave me a new one for free since I was still under contract. It’s nicer than my old one. It has a camera on it. Just what I need, more gadgets. Dude – midsouthcon and mtac are both going to be on the same weekend next year. I can’t go to both.…

when i wanted to make t-shirts
I have 4 blank t-shirts. One is exactly like the one I put dumb LOTR panels on, except it’s white with black stitching. The other three are fitted white shirts with coloured sleeves and collars. (one is black, one is blue and one is yellow) What should I put on these suckers? At least one is going to be another…

My first photo at a convention
So… my first convention. Animazement 2001. I get to the hotel, we get checked in, and I toss on my Selphie costume. I’m so excited I don’t bother with my hair, and (as usual in those early days) didn’t bother with makeup. I stepped out of the elevator, not knowing what to expect but excited beyond belief to be there.…

Doppleganger
Apparently I have an evil doppleganger. People are always saying to me, “I saw you at -con I didn’t go to-!” At MidSouthCon, 4 seperate people said they saw me there last year – I didn’t go last year! It’s kinda creepy. I just nod and smile when people say something like that. I really must have a doppleganger. Maybe…

when there was a baby for sale
Last night I dreamt that my aunt had come over, and my mom said, “OK, Kell, let’s go.” I’m like, “huh what go where?” And she said, “To the play.” “It’s next weekend,” says I. And she told me that no, it was also this weekend. They were having it two weekends this year. Since my poster wasn’t ready they…

when i took some school photos
To go with my old RAT ghost story… I took some pics of the school tonight. Second floor – dark! It was creepy up there, and super quiet. I didn’t stay long. Stairway – the back stairway to the second floor. Prop Room door – this is one of two ways into the prop room. See that door up on…

when ozma changed in every picture
Mom pulled out an album of old pictures… man. I look SO much like my dad. If I had my scanner hooked up, I’d scan some of them. Alas, alas. Good news tho, I’m ‘inheriting’ my aunt’s printer. Which is a fine printer, it’s just not working very well right now. Between dad and myself I’m sure we can get…
