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 got leia unleashed
After freaking years of wanting the Slave Leia unleashed, for a non-ridiculous price, I finally caught one on ebay with a buy-it-now for $25. So I snapped that puppy up. (I think the reason no one had gotten it already, was because “Unleashed” was misspelled in the title, perhaps- it was listed as “Unleahed” LOL) Ahh but she’s beautiful, I…

when i mourned my lost toys
I’ve probably already written about this, but I don’t care! When I was a little kid, I had a whole collection of Star Wars toys. I loved them a lot, I had a knock-off Star Wars action figure case to keep them in, but when I wanted to take them somewhere, I would put them in this little brown and…

when i got annoyed at commission requests
Do people on myspace not know how to read? I get so many messages everyday with people asking stuff that is on my main page, right there. I don’t have THAT much text on my page. I have paragraph about me. I have a paragraph (in big bold type!) that I make my own costumes, and I do not sell…

when i had bad ebay deals
Bad Ebay Deals! I have had, as far as I can remember, 3 bad ebay deals, all involving costume stuff. The first was in probably 2001. I found a nice pair of red Mary Janes that would go good with my Asuka sundress I had recently (also) bought off ebay. This was in the days before I had paypal, so…

when the weekend was going to be busy
Last night was fun, though we weren’t out very long! We were home by 9. We finished watching Cinderella 3 and went to sleep. LOL. I was up at 2 getting a snack, though. Must have not filled up enough at Texas de Brasil! This weekend promises to be busy, Friday night, Chase is going to a concert with my…

when i got an xm radio
Chase got me not only two cute cards, but the monkey magnets from Target that I liked so much, a little Belle dressup doll, and a big model of the Millenium Falcon! (he’s going to put it together for me!) And my parents got me an XM radio. whoohoo!

when i needed a drug fix
Stupid Valentine’s Day Cards… I went several weeks ago and bought my Valentines Day Cards, so it’s not like I waited til the last minute and nothing was left… but I had the hardest time picking out a card for Chase. We were together this time last year, already, but I just gave him one of my Star Wars kiddie…

when i packed a lunch
I woke up this morning feeling rather icky. The slighty sore throat I’d had yesterday was 10x worse, and I was badly congested – my nose, my throat, and my ears! I got up and Chase had me gargle some salt water – which ended badly, but helped, and I found a sore throat lozenge in the medicine cabinet, and…

when we had wintery mix
Well, I was supposed to have a hair appointment this morning (which I desperately needed, my bangs are way too long, but I will get mum to trim them sunday when I get home from nashville – I don’t trust her to do that before I wear Leia tomorrow! ;)), but dad burst into my room at 8AM going on…

when my car died
Well, this morning, I decided to leave for work a little early, and good thing. I got to my car and it wouldn’t start. Turns out the battery was dead. Luckily dad was home sick today, and of course Chase was here, so they got dad’s truck around in front of my car and got it started for me. I…

when i couldn’t play the sims
MAN! I got an external harddrive a couple of months ago, and discovered that I could install Sims 2 on it and play it off of that (my computer can’t handle it anymore, so I had uninstalled it a long time ago). So I decided to install it on the external drive tonight, I got all my stuff and sat…

when i did some more room work
So the room revamp and ultimate cleaning is finally to the point I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I started back in December, cleaning everything out and getting rid of stuff and moving things out of my room, so I could bring new stuff in. The plans were for a new bed for me, nightstand,…

when we played with Izzy
It’s nice being around a cat that acts like a normal cat (my aunt’s cat Izzy – I’m house sitting). Calvin is such a grumpy old man, all he wants to do is sleep and eat and hunt. Chase had a bunch packing paper his planes were in, and he sat it on the floor and Izzy went wild… she’s…

when i was dreaming of a con
No continuation of the cool dream last night! Only thing I remember about whatever I dreamed, was I was at a con, and someone had done a costume I’ve been wanting to do, only they were riding in a boat that had wheel on it. American Idol had the Memphis episode on next week!!!! I’m so excited! 😀

when i had a weird dream, again
weird dream last night! I don’t remember the first part of it, except I was like, on this quest or hunt of some kind with a bunch of other people. At one point we ended up at “my house,” which was a huge mansion, with a lot of people hanging out in like a bar area. My mum was in…
