when i got $60
When I was 6 or 7, I got $60 for my birthday. I’d never gotten much money for my birthday before, but for some reason that year a couple of people gave me money, and all together it came to exactly $60. I was so amazed, I’d never had so much money at one time before. Mom took me to…

when i was artist of the day
wtf? Why am I Side 7 artist of the day again? I was already it once I thought I couldn’t be again. That’s weird… and nice to wake up to 🙂 Dad got Photoshop 8, Illustrator… 11, I think, and a new Adobe program called… I think it was In Design? He’s been raving about it. I don’t think they…

when i made a costume closet
My little project yesterday was turning the old store room into my new costume closet! (missing photo) Yay! I have all kinds of space in my room now, it’s so great! I organized everything… all the things that could be hung are hanging on the new bar dad and I installed. All the accessories and things are in the 3…

when i needed a con fix
Saw Matrix 3 last night – it was ok. I guess my main problem was that I had been spoiled on the entire thing a couple of months ago. I need a convention fix! The only one anytime soon is numa rei no con in december and I still haven’t found anybody to go with me. I have a project…

when i hunted for sdcc hotels
This morning had to go work at my cousin’s “Walk for a Wish” 5K. Mom and this other girl were at one place keeping cars from coming in, and dad and I were in another doing the same thing. But dad and I had the car, we just sat in it and would get out only if a car came…

when i lost my cds
Hmm. The past few months I have really ignored my blog, there’s so much that went on that I normally write about but just haven’t. The big thing I don’t think I ever write about was I lost over half of my CDs a couple of months ago (right before Dragoncon) – they were on the back of the car…

Other costume updates… Arwen: The artist making my tiara emailed me yesterday to say it was finished – I’m so excited to see it! I also have everything else I need for the costume except fabric paint. I’ve started cutting…

when trinity said shucks
Caught a bit of The Matrix on TBS or TNT one last night. Was amused by the station’s redubbing of “offensive” lines instead of just bleeping it out. Neo gets caught by agents; Trinity’s response is now “Shucks!” I mean, replying “shucks” doesn’t really convey the danger of the situation. Shucks is what you say when you drop a piece…

Shake it, baby
Apparently I have nothing better to do with my time; here is a new, extremely stupid comic I did last week. It was scandalously fun to do.

when i didnt have anything to do for halloween
This has been a weird week, not really because sucky things have happened, but mostly because I’ve been in a weird frame of mind. But anyway, Cath and I were talking about how much Halloween has changed just since we were kids. When we were kids, we were allowed to roam the neighborhood by ourselves. We set out when it…

when i didn’t care about socks
I don’t see the necessity of wearing matching socks. Especially in winter. Nobody sees my socks except me, so who cares if I’m wearing one gryffindor sock and one spiderman sock? Nobody, that’s who!

when i had halloween plans
Things I am working on right now: -continuation of class project (ie – the Amidala and Qui Gon art from recently) -SunDowner 7, of course -idiotic comic project for no good reason -Redrawing a couple of old pics I had done for gifts that are now out of date -Scanning sketchbook stuff (I have a LOT of sketches. I just…

when my dreams leaked
I need to archive my blog pages. Have decided new shirt I wore today is lucky – was dreading school today because we had midterms last week and I knew we’d be getting scores back today. In Lit, we didn’t get our notebooks back (I know mine was awful. There’s no way I’d get a good grade on that pile…

when i got some leonard nimoy albums
So Mema gave me all these old albums a few weeks ago… mostly from the 50’s and 60’s, some into the 70’s, some belonging to them, so that were my mom’s or one of her brothers or my aunt. There’s some weird stuff in there. She gave them to me to put on ebay but I haven’t had time yet.…

more scheduling
some random notes: -Mom cleaned my Belldandy dress and managed to get all the nasty mud stains off the back of the white skirt (from when it rained at dragoncon). She also cleaned my plugsuit and got those stains off of it, too. -Almost finished with my quidditch cloak. the sweater lady FINALLY called and said she’d have my sweater…

when i found a fire
Oh my god I had a great adventure today!! Mema and I were leaving the mall (I got the Helm’s Deep action figure set btw – Aragorn, Gimli, Legolas, Theoden and Haldir, and also another LOTR lunchbox! whee!) and when we got to our car I glanced in the back of the truck parked next to us – and it…

when today was crazy
today was crazy. I stayed up late last night finishing my stuff I had to turn into and packing… had to go into work early, worked all day, tried to study during lunch. Had to give my lit midterm presentation at 3 (which went OK), and then had my math midterm at 4:30. The rain started while I was in…
