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 met meg cabot
Going by the commercials, it seems Paul Lynde is on “What Not to Wear” Tonight. Or at least someone channeling him. Ok, so anyway. Meg Cabot was really cool. She was really, really funny and very nice. I got Princess Lessons, since I didn’t have that, and had her sign that. (also got it for Cath) We had all been…

A funky little Piper sketch I decided to colour.

when my cousin got beaned in the head
Went to my cousin’s tennis game today. They won (he only plays doubles), but the best part was when he got beaned in the back of the head with his partner’s serve. Classic. I hope this link works – does anyone else think (edit: removed broken link) this looks really….. off? Like she’s been overly airbrushed or something? (I will,…

when i made an oopsie
Ok, so when I posted on my sketchjournal yesterday, I put down “horny” as my current mood – mostly because I wanted to see more of my new buffy emotion set, but also because it was april fool’s day, ya know. This morning I decided my dad might get a kick out of seeing that old pic, so I sent…

when i got a good workout
I haven’t posted much lately, but I have been distracted… by 2 things, which I will come to in a minute. Friday I did… something, but now I can’t really remember what. Saturday I went and WORKED OUT! It felt good, I got a good workout. I’m going to start going on a regular basis. I’m gonna be so buff!…

when i fought dumbledore
I was using google image search to find pics of the Gryffindor Quidditch uniforms, so I could draw my reference picture. Out of nowhere pops up this picture… none others of mine, just that one. WEIRD. I had forgotten about that pic. I think it was something from WOFS. I think there was a ‘sequel’ picture that had me running…

when I loved Tim
I have this shirt… it’s a sleeveless light pink shirt, and on the front it says “I (heart)” and underneath that it has a little clear pocket you can put pictures in. So if you put a pic of my dog in it, it would say “I love (picture of Indy).” I bought it cause I thought I could put…

when i reviewed buffy again
Happy birthday Tanja!! Buffy tonight was pretty good. Wood got on my nerves a bit, I’ve liked him in the past but he’s starting to grate my nerves. Loved the flashbacks for Spike… I love seeing William, it cracks me up. Giles kinda pissed me off tonight too, but I lurve him so I’ll let it slide. Did not miss…

when my lotr action figures needed to watch tv
Watched the Oscars last night. It was entertaining. Yay for Chicago. Next year – LOTR!! And a big ole HELL HECK for Spirited Away! Oh yeah, and Catherine – who is in Malta right now – stayed up all night so she could watch the Oscars. She said they ended at 6AM this morning, so she didn’t go to her…

when i watched trading spaces
A few remarks on stuff I have watched lately: Angel – second time I’ve ever seen it, and I liked it. I recorded it (it comes on at midnight here) and watched it last night, since it leads up into the new Buffys. I’ve never been a fan of Angel himself, so I never really bothered to watch his series……

when i couldn’t go to nimbus
Oh, btw, I’m not going to Nimbus this year. It’s out… too much other stuff going on this summer – Akon in june, AX in july and Dragoncon in august. Just don’t have the extra funds or time for another one squeezed in there. Maybe next year…

when i was suspicious
Mom is putting together this little photo album with pics of all my costumes in it, so she can show them to people. God. I guess it’s kind of a neat idea… you know, when I’m old and grey I can pull that photo album out and think, “… gosh, I was SUCH a loser.” I find it fishy that…
-
when i needed thin mints
I’m pissed at the moment because I was going to stay up late and watch Angel tonight (first time ever, Willow’s going to be on there – it comes on at midnight here), and now it’ll probably be pushed back even later because of all the crazy news right now, if it comes on at all. Why do the news…

when i was going to draw us
OH! I forgot. I want to re-do mine, ash’s and cath’s pictures for lazy eternity, so I was going to draw each of us as a character. I was thinking either… Stick with powerpuff girls… me as blossom, ash as buttercup and cath as bubbles. LOTR girls… don’t know who would be who yet, but arwen, eowyn and galadriel. Hogwarts…

when there was too much advil
So this morning I was not feeling good, was in one horrible evil mood and made a very loud, angry post about various things I wanted to bitch about! And then blogger ate it. That just ticked me off even more! I was in that wretched mood until I took 3 walgreens knock-off Advil… I usually take 1 but I…

when it was time for spring break
I’m off to my grandmother’s for the week. I’ll still have limited net access as usual (1-2 hours late at night when no one will be telephoning. and I have to share that time with the others :P) Bye bye!

when i made a to-do list
I’ve been wanting to do a little daily comic strip, just a silly sort of thing… I may test run it next week while I’m gone in the daily sketch and see how it feels. The thing is – and the reason I’ve avoided doing comic strips – is that I’m not good at that punchline at the end it…
