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 went on a nostalgia bender
For my He-Man/She-Ra loving friends…! X-E’s 1985 and 1986 Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade Coverage – besides all the wonderful Rainbow Brite, Care Bears and other weird 80’s stuff that appears in the parade, you have to check out the video at the end of the live action He-Man/She-Ra float. Simply awesome. By the way, screw the fact it’s hot – I…

when i got a gryffindor sweater
Why the heck do my pajama pants have pockets? What do I need pockets for while I’m sleeping… I got my new gryffindor sweater and it kicks butt. I wish it were cool out so I could wear it.

when i had no point
Ugh. I have been trying to get stuff ready for this thing I’m doing week after next… it’s time consuming and tiresome… on top of trying to get ready for Dragoncon. AUGH. Don’t even mention to me the fact that school starts back 2 days before Dragoncon. That’s not even on my radar, and it won’t be until September 7…

when it was mema time
I’m going to my grandmother’s tomorrow afternoon… not like it’ll really matter, because I’ll have my laptop, so nobody online will even notice… so I really don’t even know why I posted about it.

when mom thought I loved orlando bloom
So mom woke me up last night just to tell me that, apparently, Orlando Bloom is coming to Memphis to shoot a movie. I said, “oh boy.” She goes, “What?! Don’t you like Orlando Bloom?!” like she had nooo idea I wasn’t in love with orlando bloom. My “oh boy” went more for Cath, who is not exactly crazy over…

when we did the big scoop
So what’s up with me, you ask? I did something to my foot last weekend. Every single one of my costumes had uncomfortable shoes (the worst being Hild, Phoenix, and Anna) and it was a LOT of walking. So my feet were still numb by the time I got back. Well my left foot is still bothering me. Mom thinks…

when i gave the e true hollywood story
In reference to this picture… Here’s the E! True Hollywood story. 1. Harry’s got a gun, ie. Jamie’s got a gun 2. He’s got a bottle of Jack Daniels (no reason) 3. There’s a red flower in the Jack Daniels (no reason) 4. He’s only got one foot (because I didn’t feel like drawing the other one) 5. R2D2 (we…

when we met carrie and dom
Ok, two of the reasons yesterday ruled. Reason 1: I met Carrie Fisher and got her autograph. And of course, reason 2: We met Dom (and the whole cast of Lost)… I got to stand right in front of him and I got his autograph and then I called Cath and squealed for 20 minutes. Ok now I really have…

Ash and I were trying to figure out if there is a slang term for ‘butt’ for every letter of the alphabet. We got stuck at I. A- ass, B- butt, C- crack, D- derriere, E- end, F- fanny, G- glutious maximus, H- heinie. Anybody got one for “I”?

when there was no update to our luggage
11:00 Memphis time, 9:00 San Diego time: still no word on our luggage. This is going to suck MAJORLY for me if we don’t get it. I’ve got costume parts in there… they’re saying probably late tonight (like 9:30, 10) or tomorrow morning before they know anything. Anyway, today we went to the zoo, but it was hard to really…

when our luggage got lost
Well, today already has a really long story. I will make it as short as possible. We get to the airport and check in. We board our flight. The airplane has a glitch. Everybody deplanes. I run back down to the ticket counter, where I stand for 20 minutes, but manage to get us a different flight, with a different…
