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 made a realization
So I was trying to get my pants on, and they wouldn’t. I get them just to my knees and they wouldn’t go any further. I was all like, omg wtf! Then I realised, it helps to unbutton your pants before putting them on.

when there was an elephant in the neighborhood
I dreamt last night about an elephant walking around the neighborhood. I remember thinking (in the dream), that man, I have to write about this in my blog! Regarding Henry is on. I love this movie. It’s so sad! I love it when he comes in with the puppy, I just want to hug him.

when cath’s car needed a jump
I love The Producers. Just in case I hadn’t mentioned it before. This morning I was sitting in the kitchen (dressed in my pajamas, my houserobe, AND my poncho. I was cold.) when my cell phone rang. It was Cath, asking where I was. I told her I was at home. She asked when I was going in to the…

when the lights were out
This morning the power went out. I got up around 7:30 and was on the computer and watching TV when it went off (what was I doing up at 7:30 AM, you ask? Ever since I got back from Paris my sleep schedule has been way off. I keep going to bed really early and getting up really early. blegh!).…

Anyone who has WinXP or XP Pro, do you know how to get rid of icons in the system tray? Namely the ones for Wireless Connection. I can’t get them to go away! I…

when i watched an 80s version of faust
We watched this video in class today. It was called Damnation of Faust, apparently it went along with an installation in a museum? I’m not sure. It was basically 15 minutes of kids in a playground. It was made in 1983, and it has all video effects that were hot that year, along with a soundtrack courtesy a Casio. I…

I’m home! Ok so I’ve been home all weekend, but I came home sick and jet lagged so I’ve been sleeping π I’ll go through the whole trip later, when I’m on the other computer where it’s easier to type. I’m going to start downloading my pics tonight, too. I took around 600! The quick story, though: Paris was fun.…

when some guy said hey girl to me
Ok guys. I’m leaving tomorrow. I’ll be back next friday (the 12th) I doubt I’ll have internet access anytime while I’m over there – can’t even check my mail on my phone!

Art Post: Fred and George Weasley
This was an experiment – I wanted to do a fanart in the same way I do my play posters. When I first read the HP books, I pictured my cousin as the Weasley twins. So I used him as a reference for this picture. I don’t particularly like the CGing and I don’t think the background is all that…
