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 almost done with sundowner 1
Well, all the major work for SunDowner is done and I’m working on the backgrounds now, along with the extra illustrations (still). Not too much longer now. Mom’s play is this weekend. Three people weren’t there at their practice last night, someone dropped out over the weekend so they have a new person, a soundtrack tape got eaten… oh, there…

when muffy snoofy met gimli
Fun 😀 LOTR Mary Sue Mad Libs Gimli looked around Prancing Pony Inn with grumpiness and scratched . This story sure was getting bony . What was Tolkien thinking with all of those yucky Hobbits and – please – a magical happy meal ? Where’s the dramedy in that? Also, Gandalf had been giving him some creepy looks and he…

when i got a happy meal
Oh my god am I tired! Something is wrong with the thermostat in our house and I don’t think that’s helping. Last night I was *burning up* …. that’s not usual for me. So I went and checked the thermostat and it was set on……… 104. O_O We got home tonight and it had cranked itself up to 101. A…

when i twisted my ankle
The best part of waking up is NOT Folger’s in your cup. Somehow I twisted my ankle yesterday. I woke up today and it was hurting. Not bad, but enough to make it hard to run. I took pictures of the puppies a few minutes ago, I’ll try to get them up today or tomorrow. I didn’t post Thursday because…

when a spider attacked
Arrrgh there was a spider on the floor of my room. I killed it with the edge of my binder (the spider is now in three pieces), but now I feel all icky and crawly and I don’t want to put my shoes on… (they were really close to where the spider was…)

when we went to alabama
Sorry I haven’t posted yet, about the trip or anything. Been tired… I don’t know how I always managed to come off spring break dead tired. Let’s see, I’ll try to break things down a little bit. Mema’s – spent from sunday to sunday at my grandmother’s, of course. Bathroom down the hall from my room was being painted, preventing…

when peter tork attacked my car
Ash came over last night and me, her and Kevin went to get dinner. Ash made the mistake of saying someone (I forget who) was a skanky ho. Hoe? Ho? I don’t know. You get the idea. Of course I said, “Who’s a skanky ho?!” And, out of habit (anytime he asks me something along that line I say this),…

when dad brought home a light table
Dad just called me and asked if I wanted him to bring home a giant light table. They’re throwing them away at work, he said. He wanted to bring it home, but he knew mom wouldn’t like it, and we don’t have room for it. He called me so I could tell him no. Of course I said, yes, please…

Art Post: Ocha oekaki
A more painterly oekaki doodle of Ocha. I did this real quick just to show my friend how an oekaki board worked. Early 2002. (Ocha had longer hair when she was younger, so this is a younger Ocha.) (oekaki was an online social drawing system.)

when i was excited about my contest
I’m TRYING not to look at any of the SD entries, but it’s OMG it’s hard not to! Just for everyone who has entered thus far, here’s everyone I have emails from (just going by the name on the email): Anna P, Lydia, Limestonemoon, MooSe, Corrie, Crazy Comie, Vale, Princess Megs, Alex W, Amanda L, Rebecca H, Heather M, Orpheus~,…

when mo got the cokes
This morning before I left for work, I wrote a note to myself as a reminder of the things I needed to do after work. But, dad called while I was writing it, and I got distracted in the middle of it. So without thinking I just stuck it in my back pocket and went on my way. After work,…

Art Post: Yuna oekaki (FFX)
I did this oekaki to look like the Lulu I did first, but this is my least favourite of the 4 FFX oekakis I did. Her face just doesn’t look right. I wish I’d planned it better. (oekaki was an online social drawing system.)

when i made kevin late
I spent a few minutes this morning tinkering with the oekaki some more. Thanks much to Tia, who straightened some things out for me 😀 I’m still having trouble, after a picture is sent, it doesn’t show up on the bbs page… I’ll tinker with it some more tonight. I made a mistake this morning. I stayed over at my…

Art Post: A whole mess of SunDowner oekaki pics
I decided to post all of these together – these were all done throughout Feb 2002. I couldn’t get the expression on Qudiar’s face to look right, he looks far too happy. Kyte is good though. My second oekaki! a huge improvement over the first, cause I realised how to use layers. Heh. Still a bit sketchy and rough though.…

when i had a contest
Because I’m too lazy to update the index page. If you’re planning on sending me a pic for the SunDowner fanart contest thing, the last day to send in is March 1st (friday). Yeah 😀

Art Post: Auron (FFX)
Auron is my favourite character. This picture got a little messy (I couldn’t find any good references of his sword, darnit), but I love the sleeve. Yes, the stupid sleeve is my favourite part. (oekaki was an online social drawing system.)

when i didn’t accomplish anything
A Meryl action figure! Ash’ll be happy… now where’s my Milly action figure? I had this uneasy feeling all afternoon, and I don’t know why. It certainly couldn’t have been class (I made an A+ on my second essay… so far so good!) I spend most of this morning wrapped up under blankets, thinking it was 30 degrees out, only…

when my sailor mars was sold
Ha! My Sailormars is being sold on ebay again… still using the same pictures of me in it, and pieces of my auction description. It’s not a size 10, I’ll tell you that LMAO Maybe it’s a different one and they are just using my pics and description? Weird. Yesterday was a great day. In the morning I got up…
