old
This tag is for all of my SUPER OLD Blog posts from both my original "free talk" section on my website (circa 1998-1999), and my blogger site A Day at the Races (1999-2008). I think there may also be some old livejournal mixed in here, too. This tag just delineates what is originally from those older blogs.

when i realized i had a jango shirt
So I have this shirt I hang out in a lot. I sleep in it occasionally. It’s just a comfy t-shirt to wear at home. I’ve had it forever. It’s a kid’s yellow t-shirt with some Star Wars stuff on the front. So today I had it on, and I looked down at it, and was like, “WTF! Why do…

when the power was out
So, the rain has stopped, for a while, anyway. Due to the fact we haven’t had much rain around here lately, we didn’t get flooded – even though it rained ALL night, our neighbor’s front yard wasn’t flooded (and it always floods when we get a lot of rain – the front part of his yard is very low, kids…

when i hated the news
I hate when these news shows and reports interview people who are upset. Why don’t they just leave them alone, instead of displaying their misery to millions? I swear, if something horrible ever happens to me, and I see some idiot coming at me with a video camera and a microphone, I’ll punch ’em.

when there was a lot of rain
We’re all fine here. Just a lot of rain. Nothing bad so far. It’s supposed to rain all day tomorrow, too, so we just have to worry about flooding. Luckily I don’t have school tomorrow so I don’t have to drive all the way into town, I just have to go to work. We’ll probably be slammed at work, since…

when i didn’t watch firefly
Here’s the thing: I KNOW I would love Firefly if I would watch it. I know I would. It’s Joss, and it’s space, of course I’d love it… but I think that’s why I won’t watch it. I don’t feel like getting into anything else right now. I dunno, I’m weird like that. I think I’ll ask for the dvd…

when i bought tickets for cats
SOooooo. I bought tickets to see Cats when it comes here in October. Yay. Yelled at MBNA today; please, everybody, NEVER get a card or credit line through MBNA. They are horrid. Now, I’m going to… um… go away and do something else.

when i couldn’t tell if spiders
OOOOOOOOH! Now I remember what I was going to say! So this afternoon, I was working hard on stuff. I had been cutting and shaving foam rubber for a long time, and it was everywhere, and I felt yucky. So I went to take a shower. So I get in the shower, turn it on, and notice someTHINGS floating in…

I finally put batteries in the little camera yesterday, to take a pic of my finished Belle costume, and I found some old pics on the memory card I don’t think I ever took off. Indy asleep!! Awwww. My Amidala petal cape in progress – I was pinning them on here! At this point I thought I had enough, but…

when we found toys in the trash
I forgot to mention this yesterday! C, Kevin and I were taking trash out at work yesterday. C and I were up on the back dock getting it all in order and Kevin was outside, pulling it off the dock and putting it in our dumpster. Kevin said “There’s an elbow in here!” And C and I freaked out a…

when shelob attacked
HOLY CRAP There was the biggest, most horrific spider in the garage today. I was coming inside the garage from my car and it was sitting there on one of my blocks of foam, just looking at me. I swear to god, it was f-ing SHELOB man… I grabbed the closest thing to me and sprayed it… it ended up…

when objects reappeared
On the subject of Reappearing objects: Twice we’ve had something disappear, only to reappear in an unlikely place. When my parents were younger, they moved into an apartment complex. The day they were moving in, they dropped their Aggravation board game (a game that involves several marbles) and the marbles spilled out into the flowerbed in front of their apartment.…

Well, I was going to do an entry for the HP Monthly, but unless I manage to… um, like draw anything tonight it’s not going to happen, haha. Oh well, next month I suppose.

when i wasn’t sure about HP6
Oh, I guess I should mention I read Harry Potter on Monday. Did I like it? Uh… I don’t know. It left me with a bad taste in my mouth. When I got done reading it, it didn’t feel as though I’d just finished reading a Harry Potter book, do you know what I mean? I wasn’t left with a…

when we flew over the grand canyon
So, San Diego report! Wednesday! We got up at 4AM, went over to Ash’s house and picked her up. We got to the airport a little before 5 and got checked in. Nothing was open so we just had to sit around. We ended up in like, the loser part of the airport I’d never been in before. So we’re…
