Adventure

So Gina had set a 10:35 tee time today at Fox Den golf course.

Mapquest said it would only take me 25 minutes to get there. I left at 9:30 so I could get there early.

I got there at 11:10.

Why?

Because the dumbasses had the address wrong on their website.

Everything was fine, I got off the right exit, I made the right turns yadda yadda. Then all of a sudden when I'm supposed to be turning into a golf course there's a retirement home (that's not even the right address I might add.)

So after driving up and down a few times I pulled over and called Gina and asked her where it was. She told me to keep going up the road and go onto Fish Creek which would be on the left. She also told me to keep driving up past the Hudson Stores and under a train bridge.

So I did and I kept going till I hit Twinsburg and called again. They told me to drive back, I went too far, and that it should be on the right now.

So I dive all the way back to where I was and still no Fish Creek.

Since their directions aren't working I decide to try and wave someone down on the road.

1st, a woman in her car:

I wave.

She waves back.

-_-

2nd, a group of local kids:

"We dunno."

YOU FUCKING LIVE THERE YOU SHOULD.

3rd, jogger:

I stop the car, wave at him to come over and yell excuse me out the window.

"Hi!" *jogs away*

...

Seriously.

There was no where else to park by the Hudson shops and it's bumper to bumper traffic so I called them back again and have them give the phone to the starter.

He finally gets me there. Turns outs even though I told them I was heading North they thought I was coming from the South and the directions where backwards. Fish Creek was really on the right when it should have been on the left and then left when it should have been on the right.

Did I mention all this time I was driving with the light on because SOMEBODY (*cough* Dad *cough*) didn't fill up the tank the last they took the car?

When I finally got there and was paying in the club house everyone was like "OMG ASHLEY'S HERE!" Not just Gina, Ashley O. and Lauren, people that worked at the place.

I made a name for myself and I wasn't even there.

Skills?

I think so.

After we got done playing (did I also mention we got golf carts?!) Gina rode in my car and we got gas and Burger King!

Drove her to 2-Club and then went and gave Rachel her "Get Well Soon!" balloon that I tried to give her yesterday. =p

Watched the beginning 5 minutes of the Browns game, became disgusted and came here. JJ and I are gonna play Left of Dead now! =D

MISSING

My golf swing. Last seen at the driving range.

Not heard of again since the golf course.

*headdesk*

Shitty round. But Dad and Mr. Grayson were placing bets and doing funny shit to distract each other from the game, so it wasn't all that bad. =p

I also golfed in a pair of my brothers old long kaki pants since I don't have any of my own. They barley fit me. =p

When Dad and him stopped at the Quick Check to go get some beer I asked him if I could drive on the way home, but he said no.

So I crawled up into the driver seat anyways. =D

The old lady parked in her car next to use started laughing when my Dad came out to see I was at the wheel. =p

As I was eating my homemade pizza sandwich my brother came in the house saying that there was a brown dog in the backyard. After 4 yards we finally caught it and literally had to drag it across the street (which is where JJ said it belonged) because it didn't want to walk anymore.

Buuut, as it turns out, it wasn't the right house! Apparently the dog was Zack, the one that lives at Nutboy's house (where the horses are) which was back on our side of the street one house down.

So then we had to take the dog all the way that way and finally Nutboy's tenants put him back in his cage yard.

Did I mention I walked all around in my cow socks? o.o

That was very brave of me. I mean, what if they got a hole in them?! Not only would they be ruined but I could have gotten (what I like to say) toe-lee-o and have to get a tetris shot!

Speaking of which, am I the only one who thought it was a 'tetris shot' instead of a 'tetanus shot' for a few years? I swear that's what people would say...

Don't laugh at me.

=p

Thought of another script to write, and I just finished writing the first scene with my new software!

I'm most likely going to be putting off the mall video...but only until I think of how to put all the footage together in my head! So no worries!

I already have the first 30 seconds done!! =D

That's about it for now!

Is This the Real Life? Is This Just Fantasy?

Cy came over yesterday, I gave him his presents and then we went over to his house. I ate dinner with his family and then he gave me my presents.

Wanna know what he got me?

HERPES!



xD

Most hilarious gift ever award goes to him! =D

I'm naming the little guy Herpes Hank. =p

He also got me this other bug plushie thing (we're still trying to figure out what the hell it is) and the most awesome shirt ever!



ISN'T IT SO ME?!

=D

I swear, on my list of top 3 gifts, he replaced the fuzzy toe socks.

Seriously.

Oh, and Cy's Uncle Clyde (uncle right?), he's my favorite I think. When I called Cy and he put me on speaker phone so I could say 'hellos' he was basically all like "Sooo, Ashley, what do you think about this strapping young man over here? Do you keep him for his brains or because he pleases you so much?"

XD

Heh...when we were upstairs in Cy's room at the house, we were kinda in the doorway kissing and one of them was like: *clears throat* "Umm..uh...sorry to interrupt, I'm just coming up to use the bathroom, only need a second."

xD

So many laughs.

Today was so weird because it was so WARM. I was laughing at the weather because in Florida it was only 70 and they were probably going "HOLY SHIT! It's so cold!!!" while up here we're all like "OMFG IT'S SO WARM LETS GO SWIMMING!"

=p

Thing was, it was humid out too.

Aunt Lucy came over, then dad and I walked the dog and came home. Called and talked to Cy for a bit. Then the adventure began.

Dad and I decided we hadn't gone up to Danny Boy's Pizza in awhile, and, it IS the #1 pizza place on our list.

20251 Lake Road, Rocky River.

Go there and have the pizza and twisty bread sticks, they're to die for!

But, I digress.

So on the way home my Dad needed to stop and get something at Giant Eagle, but he let me stay in the car.

Then, all of a sudden Queen is playing on the radio.

I was like: =O

First they played Killer Queen and then they played Bohemian Rhapsody. So, since it's such an awesomely epic song, I turned the volume really high in the car.

Everyone in the parking lot was looking at the car and going like "Oh, dude lets get in our car and listen!"

Everyone except this old guy and his wife who was parked in the spot in front of us.

This guy, I swear, gave me the most dirtiest look I've ever been given in my life. He got in the car while his wife put the groceries in the backseat and continued to glare at me.

So I kinda nodded my head and smiled and gave him that "Hey, heh, heh, waz up?" look.

And he shook his head and pretended to twist a knob in the air, trying to tell me to turn the radio down.

So I shook my head, turned the volume up even more, and started dancing in the car.

=D

Oh my gosh, you guys should have seen his face, it was so scrunched up with anger... xD

Then as he was pulling out he kept glaring at me and I smiled and waved them good-bye.

That was my adventure.

=D

The Great Blue Rescue!

Hehe...that rhymes.

=p

Yesterday Dad, JJ, and I decided to go out on a hike in the...Brecksville Reservation I believe.

Before we did Dad wanted to turn all the coins he had in this big jar he had been saving up for years (there were mostly pennies in it) and turn it into cash.

HE HAD $177 IN THERE!

o.o

I'm gonna start saving now...

I have a little itty bitty jar. ^-^

Hiked to this big gorge and when we were on this over-look thing I saw a Pepsi can at the bottom!

I named it Blue and I asked my Dad if I could get it, but he said maybe at the end of the hike.

In the end, I climbed down the 3 mini waterfalls and slippery rocks and slid down to save Blue!

=D

Then I tried to get back up the way I came...it didn't work...

So then JJ threw his walking stick down to me and I climbed up the side and threw Blue up to him.

These people, who turned out to be watching the whole thing, started clapping. =p

They had a nice doggie, who's name was Otis. Oh, and there was this gay guy, who was their friend, who's name was Alex, who complemented my Dad on his boots and said he liked me hat! =D

Alex had a cool rainbow bowl-like hat on too. =p

Funny thing was, when they were walking away JJ and I heard Alex say to his friend "that old guys jacket did not match his outfit."

XD

Dad dropped me off at Devvy Chan's house for a few hours.

I told her about the great blue rescue and then we played rock band. After that we hid under her covers while her dog tried to attack us. =p

Ashton came over and her 2 little cousins (one 3, one 7) joined her...little brats...

I hid my honey buns from all of them. =p

Today I woke up and Dad and I did some un-needed yard work.

We cleaned the grange floor, picked up some leaves, cleans up the dog shit, re-organized the tools in his barn, then shoveled some snow off of the driveway.

=p

Now we're all warm and cozy in the house and I'm waiting for JJ to come home so we can play Mario Party 8.

Might be hangin out with Cyrus later on tonight...

I wish it was cold enough to have a nice warm fire...

Speaking of which, THE FIRE PLACE CHANNEL IS ON!!!

My most favorite channel ever during the winter months.

Check. It. Out.

Oh yeah, and if you see someone put a new log on the fire (not just moving it, has to be a new one) then you get good luck!

=D

Old Habits Die Hard

I started biting my nails again.

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh.

Now they look all icky.

=/

There isn't a point to paint them where there isn't anything to paint really... Maybe clear nail polish, just so they don't attract any eyes...

I'd sit on my hands but it's kinda hard to type that way. I mean, I can race my brother in the Wii Indy 500 and drive with my feet (and get in first place I might add....*cough*) but I haven't exactly typed with my toes before.

I'll have to try it some time. =)

My mom was curious about chat speak, so I told her stuff like what ROFL means, and LMAO. She already knew what LOL meant, she was so proud of herself. =p

Mom is leaving for Vegas on Thursday. I think this is her first vacation that she's going on with out us since like....my brother and myself were born. She so deserves it. She'll be going with my Uncle. He says he's gonna teach her some tricks about the slots. =)

Hopefully the weather doesn't change too much there so it affects her migraines....I don't think so though.

Cyrus invited me on an adventure tomorrow! We're going to go to Kendall Lake! My dad thinks that his sister, sister's friend, and mom are gonna be there, heh, they're not. =p

My mood has improved since this morning, I wasn't feeling very good.

We went to Pet Smart today and I looked at the kitties! I saw a black one that's name was Thomas!! I adore black cats. =)

Guess what, started looking at my book again, Marco Polo Die. Took at the book and skimmed over all 236 pages. In the end I was a little...unhappy. I could have made it a lot better. So I'm starting to make an outline for each chapter and change a lot of things in it. I'm really hoping to turn it into a film script actually. Can't wait to take that film class next year. I looked up script writing on the internet, and I told you all about that one really great site, but it doesn't answer some questions I have.

My mom suggested looking at the format for the Crucible and Raisin In The Sun, but the format and style for a play is very different than a movie script. There isn't as much detail in the movie script, and there are many different settings, while in a play the description of an Act could be pages long and only have maybe 3 different settings.

I feel like such a nerd. =p

I am sad to discover that some of the songs on my playlist, mostly the one's by the band Muse (which is my favorite) are not working. =(

I'll have to take care of that later.


Well that's about it. Blog about my adventure tomorrow!
