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 went fansub crazy
Today I have got to take care of a few things, replying to LJ replies and mail and that kind of stuff. I have a few errands to run. Y’know, whenever I’m at an anime convention, I always feel bad cause I’m just not INTO it. I mean, like, I hadn’t watched ANY anime in months before katsu. But afterwards…

sketchblog: the trio
Harry, Ron and Hermione in ink. I did this at Katsucon… was super bored. In 2016 I went back through my old sketchbooks, finding stuff I’d never scanned, and I found the original of this one — but the scanned version above cuts off the important note at the top:

when ash posted for me
hey everyone. It’s Ash. Kell wanted me to post and let you guys know that she hasn’t abandoned you, but she’s stuck in Washington on her way back from Katsucon. They’ve got, like, 3 feet of snow up there and the airports have shut down. So…it could be the middle of the week before she gets home. Well that’s all…

when i thought about being aragorn
OK ok ok last post for today I swear!! Mom wants me to make Arwen’s Blood Red Dress for Dragoncon/ROTK opening. But it’s just not interesting me. I mean, it’s very pretty, but making it would be just like making the Eowyn dress again, or my Chase outer dress. It’s pretty much the same. You know what I want to…

when i got sucked into an infomercial
Happy Birthday Cath! Hope you’re having a nice one in Malta…! edit: OH! I forgot! I woke up at like, 2:30 this morning, and there was a Pink Floyd infomercial on. I laid there and watched it for like half an hour, until it started to repeat itself. At first I was like, ooh I might get this, because I…

Did anyone notice I UPDATED yesterday? Isn’t that amazing?? Tomorrow morning I have to get up at 4:30 to go to the airport š But I only have on suitcase and my carry on bag! Does anybody know about DVD players and like, the x-ray machine and stuff? It won’t hurt it will it?

when i shared my room
Did I ever post this? My room, sometime last year, when it was still clean Last night’s buffy was good! I like Principal Wood. He’s fun. Plus I always thought his mom was way cool so that just adds to his fun factor. Andrew= so funny! The microwave bit was funny. This was much, much better than last week.

when i was numbed up
So I had a dentist appt this afternoon – to get the permanent crown put on in place of the temp one, and to get a little cavity filled. He said neither would take long, but he wanted to numb me up and give me the gas for the cavity. Well, neither was very bad, and it only took like…

when dogs could fly
There is a commercial for some kind of floor cleaner, and at the end of the commercial, they say, “And why do dogs always walk across a clean floor?” Everytime I hear that commercial, I always just have to say, “Well what do you expect them to do, fly?!” EVERYTIME. Also, today was the third time in about a week…

Preliminary Amalthea photos Holy mother of PERCY it is SO TIGHT. It’s like wearing a corset. Which I guess is a good thing cause I don’t need any straps to keep it up or anything!

when i made a soundtrack
Life soundtrack… rules… 1. This movie of your life encompasses only the last two months, so the soundtrack should do the same. Therefore, if you went to Disney World back in June 2002, we shouldn’t be seeing the Mickey Mouse March on your soundtrack. 2. No bogarting existing soundtracks. Make your own up, dammit. 3. No more than three songs…

when i was watching buffy again
Um…. oh yeah! Buffy last night was… hrm… eh, not so great. I dunno, it just seemed choppy and sort of useless to me. It just seemed weird. But I love Andrew, he is such a geek. You mean characters stop being mean to him! Anyway. Here’s hoping next week is better…

…must… finish… valentine… CARDS! I’m doing 3, although I haven’t decided on my one ‘normal’ one yet. baaaaaaah humbug! New Phone now has picture of Harry as the wallpaper, and plays Concerning Hobbits for a ring. Will switch to Utena theme song for katsucon next weekend. It also has tetris now, which is a bad, bad thing. Once my mind…

when belldandy was expensive
It’s funny how making the costume of a such a kind, loving, patient character can turn me into such a foul mouthed witch. Belldandy is finished! This costume comes in as my most expensive to date. The wigs alone cost around $120 (there are two wigs there). The wigs were sewn together to make one, and it’s SO HEAVY. The…
