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 elvis stitch
I have to clean the house today… mom is coming home tomorrow and if she sees the house in it’s current state, I’m dead. Ooo!! Lately I have been eating McDonald’s Happy Meals pretty regularly. I’ve been trying to cut back on the junk food a little, so going from two hamburgers and a large fry down to the one…

when i got a sword catalog
I got the coolest catalogue in the mail today! It’s like, Museum Replicas, or something like that (sorry, too lazy to go make sure). It’s got all kinds of cool swords and armor and shields and stuff in it! And medieval dresses and shirts and boots and bags and things! It’s so cool! plus they’ve got replicas of a lot…

when cat got a new job suggestion
OH! Almost forgot!! When we went to see Lilo and Stitch the other night, we were walking into the theater when one of Cath’s friends pops up out of nowhere to say hey (We estimate that cat knows approximately half the population of the city). A college friend. We go on into the theater ’cause… you know, we want good…

when i saw lilo and stitch
Five good things that have happened to me lately: 1. OMG tanja drew me a Bollywood Britan!!! heheheh! 2. Saw Lilo and Stitch! Loved it! 3. Dad finally hooked the cd burner up to my computer. Backed up all my old art files – from 1997 to 2001, a lot of stuff. Went from about 200MB free to 1.5GB free…

Oh my god, Ash and her friend just got robbed at gunpoint down at Schnuck’s! They’re ok. That’s all I know right now. Dude man that’s scary. Oh now she’s on the phone. She’s eating pie. She only gave the guy $10. Ha. Her friend only had $3. I’ll write more later.

when i looked like marilyn manson and became a key
Buy my ebay junk!! (edit, link above removed since it was dead) Umm… oh yeah. Saw Divine Secrets of the Ya-ya Sisterhood last night. It was ok. My favourite part was at the end… I really liked that band at the birthday party. Ash said she wanted a band like that at her birthday party, and I told her I…

when i got permission
Ash just gave me permission to do something I’ve been wanting to do for ages! If there’s anything you want off Astronomy Domine, better save it! My friend Kristie got new business cards and they misspelled her name. So now I call her Krishe.

when i remember nimrod
I forgot what I came to post about. Oh, there was nothing (that I saw, anyway) about the BREAKING NEWS! in the newspaper today. How about that? I’m not sure why I always put ‘BREAKING NEWS!’ I guess that’s like the way I say it or something. It reminds me of NIMROD!, which is a joke so old Catherine probably…

when i had a photo plan
Hehe! Ash is such a cute little Xiaoyu! This is her “Look what I can do!” picture. When my cousin was a senior in high school, that year for Christmas she gave everyone a nice, framed copy of one of her senior pictures. And I mean everyone. We had about three. It was funny that year, because every other gift…

when i went hunting for lina pants
Mom and I went downtown today to go to Hot Topic. It was the only place I could think of in Memphis that might have red vinyl pants (for my lina costume). An hour’s drive, a whole lot of traffic and two dollar parking for a “might have.” We got there and I didn’t see any. Dude working there came…

when i found a lum bikini
Today… Ash and I ran around all day. First we went to Salvation Army to look for shoes for my Urd costume, shoes for Ash’s Yuna costume, and a skirt for her Yuna. I didn’t find any shoes. Ash found some but they were too small. We actually found a *great* Yuna skirt – but it was too small too…

More Animazement pictures … there’s me and Ash on the first page of pics as Xiaoyu (tho we’re listed as “more card captor sakuras”!) And then later on there’s two of me as Lulu. You know, I realise I didn’t wear my wig correctly, now. The part of hair on the right side of my head should have been over…

when i had thoughts on lulu
I like my lulu costume. but I’m not satisfied with it. I wish I could find some lovely grey leather like material and redo the sleeves and skirt. Make the skirt longer in the back. Wider on the sides. But the thing that really bugs me is the trimming. Yeah, we bought it and sewed it on. It wasn’t that…

when i made a deadline
Some good news is that I’m completely done with the Issue 2 part, so now I can finish scanning it and lettering it. I just need to finish doing the backgrounds in Issue 1 – about five more pages – and then I can scan and letter it. Then I have to finish the illustrations and the random artwork… phew.…
