Long Hair

1998, Hangouts, ,

David and I got to know each other because he found my picture on a page full of women with long hair. Conversation revealed that he wasn’t a creep as far as I could tell, but he definitely had a very particular interest in my hair and I let him take photos of it. He also bought a wig at Spencer’s and had me take his photo while wearing it.

David has arrived!

1998, Hangouts,

My online friend David decided to come to the USA from Malta. He needed somewhere to stay and originally he was going to stay with me but my roommate changed her mind on whether she was comfortable with it so I got my friends Aaron and Steve to let him stay with them. It was very cool of them.

Fred’s first visit!

1998, Hangouts, ,

Fred flew from California to meet me for the first time after having a friendship through online and phone interaction only! We had a blast even though it was only for two days.

James and Chris visiting from Alabama!

1998, Hangouts, Holidays, , , , ,

My friend James visited me from Alabama and brought his friend Chris who is hilarious.  We played PlayStation a lot, went to Napolitano’s to sing karaoke (where Chris sang Adam Sandler’s “Ode to My Car,” to everyone’s shock and amazement), and went out to eat a lot.

Halloween 1997

1997, Cosplay, Holidays,

It’s me as Electra, one of the Helium Twins (a character made up by my friend Bunky). I didn’t wear shoes (because Electra doesn’t) and that was gross, because I went to school and the floors are gross. But no one yelled at me for bare feet.

Electra the Helium Twin

I didn’t have anyone to be the other Helium Twin with me. I’m sure if Bunky had been there he would have painted himself blue and dressed up as Proteus.
