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 was mad at gateway
ARRRGH gateway! They’ve moved my ship date to the 19th! It was supposed to ship yesterday! I kept trying to call yesterday and speak to an actual human about it to figure out what was going on, but to no avail. I’m trying again at work today, where I can just put it on speaker phone until someone answers. They…

when i was mad about my computer and my hair
Mm I think I’m getting overstressed, not just from one or two things but just from everything happening all at once here lately. I couldn’t care less about the hair thing now! Gateway called and left a message while I was in the bath; the woman’s voice was so choppy and light that we couldn’t understand what she was saying,…

when i didn’t have to correct anyone
dude! lmao! Someone commented on my gift of the evenstar picture saying that “arwen didn’t give frodo the evenstar!!” I knew I didn’t even have to say anything to that. People are already commenting back correcting the dude. Cracks me UP!

when i was elfwood mod’s choice
holy crap, I actually got mod’s choice at elfwood? I thought it would be a cold day in hell before that ever happened. sweet 😀 Went to see Miracle last night. It was pretty good. We FINALLY gave Cath her birthday present – the Frodo standup. We made her stand with her back to the car so we could take…

when i wore too much eyeliner
If people don’t freaking lay off my eyeliner I’m going to scream! *I* like the way I look with eyeliner, I’m not going to stop wearing it just because people don’t think it looks right! the one picture they pick on is the one where I DID put it on extra thick, to make up for the fact that I…

when i went through a bunch of stuff
Yay! My elfwood gallery is updated! Now all my Zone47 stuff is in there with it – which I’m happy about because it seemed like zone47 was pretty ignored, I’d only get maybe 4-5 comments a year in my zone gallery. My loth gallery always got more attention, but after they took my HP stuff out of my gallery there…

Art Post: Hermione and Krum
I did the linework and Alicey coloured it, and then I forgot to add it here. Alicey’s sense of colour and light just absolutely blow me away!

when groucho was scheduled to arrive feb 12
The deed is done. I have already named it “Groucho.” Groucho will be here February 12, supposedly, although the Gateway man said maybe sooner, maybe later. I hope sooner, since I leave Feb 12 and wanted to take Groucho with me. Groucho ended up costing me way more than what I had planned to spend, but I think it’s worth…

when indy had the life
Indy is still asleep in my bed. She’ll still be there when I get home from work today, and I doubt she’ll get up then. She’ll probably get up around 5 or so, chase the cats, play with the “baby”, stand in our laps when we’re trying to watch TV, run around the house several times, and then it’s back…

when i got my first laptop
Well, I didn’t get it today because dad wants to show the specs to the computer guy at his office, but if he gives the OK then tomorrow we’re going back and getting it. Basically, two weeks ago I was called to the business office at school to sign a check, which happens quite often because of my student loans…

when we both said johnny depp
Last night, at dinner, Ash and I were making a least of things we want to see in Paris. You know, we had the normal things on there like the Louvre and the catacombs. And then we both sat there for a minute, quiet, thinking, and then at the exact same time said, “Johnny Depp.” It was really freaky! I…

when i coughed up a lung
I have bruised my ribs coughing. But I’m finally starting to get better. Tomorrow is a big day! I’m really excited. I’ll explain more later. Katsucon is weekend after next. Tohru is done except for one little thing, but I still have a lot to do on Belldandy. I’m really, really excited about it now, because I’m going to be…

when i thought of tiny tim
Today was kind of crappy day, because I got to feeling bad again and school sucked especially my Faust class. Turns out we had a quiz today and I hadn’t read anything except one or two pages and was completely unprepared. I even wrote ‘sorry’ on the quiz because I knew I didn’t get anything right. But, this didn’t bother…

sketchblog: references
I don’t necessarily know that this counts towards the sketchblog — since I relied heavily on references for these two. But I needed do draw them out for future possible costume projects! Jack Sparrow and Megara. (EDIT: In 2016, I went back through old sketchbooks and found I’d also done a Bespin Leia costume sketch at the same time. The…

when i had a camera tumor
gah I haven’t been online all weekend, I suck. I don’t even have a good excuse. It was just a bunch of little things that kept me away. In other news, I still have that wretched cough… that kind of cough that sounds like I’m about to hack up a lung. I saw Along Came Polly friday night – it…
