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 was jealous of a ringtone
OH! I forgot! This friend’s phone played Cruel Angel’s Thesis (y’know, the Eva theme) as a ring. How freaking cool is that?! I WANT a phone like that. Back when i got my phone, it was the coolest phone in my little circle, y’know? Then everybody got phones smaller and newer than mine and I’m the only stuck with this…

when we got mixed up with music fest
What… a long… weekend. Yesterday morning was actually kinda slow. We went and ate breakfast at this place in Millington, and all I had was toast, since the thought of any other breakfast food made me feel ill. Mom and I worked on my Misato jacket some … and then we went to the play. They did great. It was…

when the soffe shorts appeared
Well, today’s running around was kind of a bust. Found no good Xiaoyu fabric at Hancock’s – the closest thing to the correct colour was too thin. Found no wig or lab coat at Party City. Found absolutely nothing at the mall. Went in the new Delia’s sotre – felt horribly out of place. Went to Freewheelin’ Franks. Ash got…

Art Post: Animal Crackers
Here’s the finished Animal Crackers poster… I’ve blathered about it enough in my other posts that I don’t really have much to say! Pretty happy with it!

when we didn’t see the movie
Wow, I haven’t posted here since 4/30! I guess I’ve been so busy with the poster… Well, it’s finished and I’ll post it in my next post, if you’re interested. Dad picked up the print yesterday and I took it up to them last night. They were all happy with it (except one of the flapper girls – “HEY I’m…

when i had dreams, again
Oh! I forgot about my dream!! Of course I don’t remember most of it, but I remember the coolest part. Me and Catherine and Rachel and David and my grandparents went to the mall. It was kinda like our Wolfchase mall, but kinda not. Inside the department store Cath and I went to was more like a Target or something…

when I was the hook
Mom told me to go get the towels out of the dryer and put them in the laundry basket. No problem! I like the nice, warm towels. So I did that. Then she told me to take the wet washclothes and dish towels and things out of the washer and put them in dryer. I have this… thing. I guess…

when i didn’t really care
I think I know what bothers me about the illus I did for class… everything is too much on the same level, I needed to go in with shadows or highlights or colours or something to push some things back or pull some things forward. Or something. I don’t care!!!!! ARGHHHH! *runs off screaming into the night*

when i had con dreams
Last night I woke up at 4 AM. I don’t know why. I was kinda freaked out. I was sleeping in the living room, cause my cousin is over this week and he was in my room. So I got up and made my cousin switch places with me. It still took me an hour to fall asleep after that,…

when i came up with another idea
Oh, of course, NOW blogger comes up. Oh well. What was I going to say? Oh! My other comic is finally coming together in mind enough that I think I could write a script for the first issue. Only thing is I can’t decide on a name. I’ve got three or four that I’ve wanted to use in the past,…

when i did a bunch of stuff
Well… I know I haven’t been about much lately, esp at the BBS. I’ve got a couple of things to go over here, I’ll just do it day-by-day. Friday- Went to the movies w/bunch of people. Wasn’t sure what we were going to see, I was just along for the ride. Half to see The Rookie, while my cousin and…

when it was time for animal crackers
Finally went and got mom’s bday present today. I even wrapped it (in Star Wars paper!), but couldn’t find tags so I just wrote “Happy Birthday Mum” in a speech bubble above Qui-Gon Jinn’s head. Also bought Carrie, because I’ve been desperate for a new book and Stephen King’s an easy read. What else? There was something else I was…

when the soft nougats got to me
I finally tried this “Reese’s Fast Break” candy bar my parents put in my easter basket. I love reese’s, and I was hoping to like this but… ew! ok, not completely ew… but it’s too much like a snickers. It’s the “soft nougats” I think. It doesn’t taste like a reese’s at all. what’s up with that?! I am upset…

when the goat smiled at me
Ok, the wasps really don’t bother me as much as the bee (yes, there’s only one). The wasps mind their own business, pretty much… it’s the bee who has some kinda road rage. air rage. You know, he’s the big kind of bee, like the size of quarter, not a little innocent honey bee. I hate him, he dive bombs…

when i needed a redesign
Ash says I need to redesign my blog. I tend to agree. I’m going to redesign it and smush super freak out and my personal page into it, making them all one page, and move it to the extra domain stuff over, too). I just have to come up with a layout. I haven’t been very good with the layouts…

when calvin got bit by a snake
Boy! There’s a lot of stuff going on. point 1, My cat Calvin got bit by a snake, we think. Mom saw that his leg was swollen the other morning, and then when I came home, he had licked all the hair off from around the bite, and there were two great big holes right there. The size of the…

when my hands were bad
Just got a post in my elfwood gbook about my hands (er, that is, the way I draw hands, not my hands particularly LOL) : “The hands.. Oh, the hands… Please improve your hands. Everything else is great.” LOL, he should have just tossed, “oh, the pain!” in there, too. “The hands… Oh, the hands… oh the pain, the pain…

OH MY GOD I JUST RAN OVER A SQUIRREL It was the most horrible thing I’ve ever seen in my life!! I couldn’t stop in time, he just ran right in front of me… I stopped and looked back in my rearview mirror and I thought he got up… but NOOOOOOO OMG it was so horrible. I got out and…
