i finally took jade’s advice from a year and a half ago and installed the lj crosspost plugin to my skankage livejournal and deleted the crackerpants one. even though my lj is defunct, those of you keep up with your lj friends regularly can find me there as well.

and for those of you who don’t know where the title of this entry came from…here ya go. make sure you wait for eli’s response; it’s internet meme classic.

“ahm the best mayne. ah deed eet.”

Everyone has things they blog about.
Everyone has things they don’t blog about.
Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don’t blog about, but you’d like to hear about, and I’ll write a post about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on lima beans, favorite type of underwear, graphic techniques, etc.

the only things i refuse to blog about are those that are entirely too personal for public view. other than that, ask away, and i’ll post them before the weekend’s done.

britt posted this on her blog, and i decided to list mine for nostalgia’s sake. i wouldn’t say these are in any particular order, either. i have way too many just to list 6!

1. alphie! alphie was a robot where you put certain cards in his belly, entered their respective code, and answered the educational questions. i loved it. i remember feeling guilty when i sold him at a yard sale years later.

2. fuzzy. i don’t have a picture of fuzzy, but i should probably take one. my aunt beth gave me a stuffed lamb when i was a baby, and my mother named it “fuzzy.” fuzzy slept with me every night until i was about 13, and he came with me to valdosta at 20 years old. he’s not fuzzy anymore, and a lot of my friends make fun of him because of his loved and worn condition, but he’s still the best stuffed animal ever.

3. dress-up clothes my mother made me. i don’t think i’ve ever really thanked her for this. she used to make me the most amazing costumes for halloween, which in turn became dress-up clothes. i was the best-dressed kid on the block. everyone wanted to play dress-up at my house because i had the coolest shit.

4. barbies. need i say more? this also includes my ariel, belle, and jasmine dolls. i was totally stoked when i got that ariel doll. it’s on video, too: “MAMA, SHE HAS LEGS. LOOK. YOU TAKE OFF THE TAIL, AND SHE’S GOT LEGS!”

5. my NES. oh, man. who DIDN’T love their nintendo? my uncle used to hook me up with games from the pawn shop, and i played them like crazy…t&c surf design and galaga, yeah, son. i remember getting mario 3 for christmas. i played it NONSTOP. i was OBSESSED. it still is probably my favorite game ever. when i got my game boy, i borrowed metroid 2 from my uncle and never gave it back. =/ i played the tiny toon adventures game like crazy, too.

6. fake food and kitchen set. i loved “cooking” for my parents. i even had a pot that had “soup” in it and little boxes of “waffle mix” and stuff. i remember devising this plan that if i ever had a note sent home that my parents were required to sign (a BAD note), i would simply “cook” for them that night and play waitress…even down to submitting a “bill” for them to “pay” and sign. haha. forgery at age 4! i never had to do it, though.

honorable mentions:

littlest pet shops, polly pocket, cherry merry muffin, cupcake dolls, lady lovelylocks, baby dolls, easy bake oven, popples, carebears (i have a replica of the one i had when i was little), lost & found crying stuffed animals (mine was a lamb), the ends of my mama’s old makeup, teddy ruxpin & grubby, &go go my walking pup.
