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 wedding plans
One of the headlines from USA Today: “Pavarotti marries in Italy amid celebrities, clowns” If I ever get married, I want USA Today to report on it with the headline: “Kell marries in Italy amid celebrities, monkeys”

when i didn’t watch SNL
For some reason, I really don’t like to watch actors or actresses from movies I like doing something like SNL or on some ET report or anything. I can’t explain it. I don’t even like to watch Behind the Scenes stuff, or interviews. It’s weird. Like I didn’t want to watch Elijah Wood on SNL so I skipped. I don’t…

when i hadn’t eaten in 48 hours
I just realised I haven’t had a meal in 48 hours – that’s probably why I feel like crap right now. Head hurts and everytime I finally fall asleep the phone rings…

when i wondered about johnny depp
Look out Paris – I turned in all my papers and paid for my passport today. Should arrive in about 4 weeks, the lady said. I actually kinda liked my passport photo – I had that “far away visionary look” in it. Heyyy… that reminds me… does anybody know exactly where in France Johnny Depp lives? Anyway, I got my…

when my super long post didn’t die
DUDE I thought for sure blogger would screw up that post and I’d lose it. I mean, it always screws up and loses my long posts, and that was like, the longest post in the HISTORY OF MY BLOG. You’re crazy if you read it all. I didn’t read it all and I WROTE IT!

when i was going to new orleans
I have 2 papers to write tonight and studying for my math final exam tomorrow to do, but I don’t feel like it right now! So, here’s a reeeeeeallly long post. I’m leaving for New orleans on monday and I’m nowhere near done with my dress. Tomorrow night when I get home I need to bust out some fabric paint…

when our ROTK plans changed again
Well, my plans have changed for ROTK! Our entire ROTK night has been flipped upside down, fixed, flipped again and barely patched together again. First, when it was announced Memphis was getting the Trilogy Tuesday, we called the theater that day to ask when tickets would go on sale. The person on the phone told us wrong (that they wouldn’t…

when i was a magnificent bastard
I have been called a magnificent bastard! One of my life goals is now fulfilled. Now I just need drive on the autobahn, sign that contract for the SunDowner movie, dive into a pile of money ala Scrooge McDuck, throw a TV out of a hotel window, and have a horde of flying monkeys. I had a bunch of other…

when i hated biters
Sometimes I think the people on cosplaylab just randomly chose a time on the “Amount of time spent on this costume” section. 40-60 hours on super simple costume? Wow OK! And while I’m ranting, this person on a board I occasionally post at started posting in this one thread, linking to the artwork of the arwen wedding dress I’m making…

when there was a jesus christ superstar miracle
Something really weird just happened. As you all know, I lost a LOT of CDs recently when my 200 disc CD wallet was left on the back of the car. So anyway, I’m reinstalling Photoshop on my aunt’s computer (because SOMEBODY deleted it). I borrowed Dad’s 5.5 disc from his office, a CD he doesn’t bring home, and that I…

when i made a christmas list
When I was a kid we would get this Wish Book every year, just in time for Christmas shopping. I forget who put the Wish Book out – Sears, I think – but it had a LOT of toys in it. And as soon as we got it, I would go get a pen, sit down, and circle everything in…

when i played rotk all thanksgiving
Today has been pretty nice. I spent the night at my aunt’s last night so I could ride with her up to my grandmother’s house this morning. We were the first ones there. I didn’t help cook. I sat in the living room with my grandfather and aunt and watched Rudy. Everybody else eventually got there and we ate. It…

when my site wasn’t bad candy
I just suddenly realised my site’s name isn’t bad candy anymore.

when i played ROTK
Beat ROTK last night – was disappointed, no extra exclusive ROTK footage. The last level with Frodo, Sam and Gollum was *annoying.* And you know how much I love Gollum, but he was SCARY. he kept jumping after me and making these awful noises. I ran around in circles for a long time with him chasing me. I’ll probably have…

when we took yuffie photos
haha I love The Simpsons. Lisa Simpson: Can you tell me what happens at the end of the series? JK Rowling: Oh, he grows up and marries YOU. Is that what you want to hear? Lisa Simpson: (dreamy sigh) Yes! A happy happy birthday to Priscellie, whose picture present thinger I need to finish. Yuffie pictures from yesterday!! Calvin joined…

when i had a pattern
Moose – it’s Butterick Classics 4301. It’s been over a year since I bought that pattern – it may have been discontinued or something by now….

when there were unexpected fireworks
The freakos up the road are shooting off fireworks for no reason again. I mean, it’s kinda cool that just randomly shoot off really cool fireworks every once in a while (they must own a fireworks shop or something, because they have really, really good fireworks. Like all of it is what we would consider our “grand finale.”), but DAMN.…

when i wanted to take yuffie pics
I want to go out and take pictures of my Yuffie costume today – it’s really really nice out and perfect for taking pictures. I wanted to go into the field next door but someone is mowing it, so if we do take pics it’ll just be in the front yard. I just had a weird experience – I came…
