Burday!

Mine!!

On the day before my burday I was just lying in bed and starring out the window as the storm was rolling in. Then all of a sudden a flash of lightning and the power goes out.

It was out the whole day and even for my party.

But it's not like that mattered. =p

Sami, Jackie, Ryan, Rayy, Dev, and Jess all came and we grilled out with burgers and hot dogs before devouring my cookie cake!

After a while of just talking we headed back to the fire pit. Of course we all huddled up on the same blanket despite all the chairs. =p

Andeth came later too! =D

Around 11 the power finally came back on and we started watching the movie The Uninvited that Jessica had gotten me. =)

In the end Ryan, Andeth, and Jackie stayed and watched the whole thing. Jackie slept over too! =D

The next day we took her to work and then Dad and I went to Best Buy to look at video cameras. and after that I 12 mile bike ride. =)

Grammy came over to eat dinner with us and we had schicabobs that my Mom made (which were excellent and juicy by the way).

Left and hung out at the Twist and Shake with Ryan, Jackie, Anthony and Sandy. =)

Today I went and hit golf balls with my coach and his little son Adin. He's 3 1/2 and adorable! And loves Nike golfs balls. =p

Grabbed a sandwich back at the house and it was off to me league to play a shitty round of golf.

My Aunt DB came over to give me my present and then Dad and I went to get my...

VIDEO CAMERA!!

It's red and I love it so much. The editing software even had lame dramatic background music for you while you installed! xD

It was so worth it. =p

Now all I have to do is find something epic to record for the first time I'll use it!

=D

Thank you all!

A Little Equation

Typing on the computer constantly + Writing constantly + Golfing a lot = Carpal Tunnel.

I got two suckers when I left though...

One of them was for Cyrus. =)

Everyone liked my shirt and Dora band aid. =p

Finally got to meet Mr. P too! =D

Picked up Andy and drove to the talent show.

I'm an aggressive driver he says. =p

"Wow this guy is going slow let's ram him." "Guy on a bike! Lemme get closer then one of you open your door!"

=p

I was mostly doing it just for laughs though (onlynotreally. =p).

Talent show was okay. Too many people dancing though.

Andy's mom drove me here, and tomorrow Cy and I are going out to get Peaches present and then help her set up for her Sweet 16 Luau!

I made her a playlist for party for us to jam too. =)

Doc said to take it easy, so I'm gonna try to stay off the computer and not write much.

I need to go back to the docs soon as well to they can make sure it's not worse than it is. If I start feeling any pain then that's bad...

Haven't felt any yet though...so...yeah...

B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets

I've heard that song so many times this week, I love it. Dad played it really down in the basement while I was playing a little pool with him, Uncle Gary, and Mr, Grayson. I did pretty good this time! =D

We were all singing along to it too. =p

What can I say, I like Elton John.

Today was fun, woke up showered and got ready to go to Jessica's party.

I tried to get directions to her house but the computer downstairs froze on me. It's so slow from all of JJ's games he had on there...that boy is obsessed with Star Trek.

It was getting close for us to leave to go to the party too, so I was really rushing to get them (which is my fault since I should have gotten them earlier =p) but anyways, I had moved onto my laptop, and everything was going fine then. I had finally gotten the directions, and I had copied them and pasted them to word to print out, when all of a sudden it says my computer can't connect to the printer.

So, being the violent child that I am, in a fit of range I kicked my dresser so hard that I collapsed to the floor in pain, all at the same time, grabbing a piece of paper and pen to scribble the directions down and hoping that I didn't break my foot.

My foot isn't broken, but it really fucking hurts.

I wonder if my dresser has a dent in it...

In the end though we go to Jessica's house. =p

Devvy Chan, and Ellie came. We had a Pikachu cake and ice cream (I had chocolate chip cookie dough flavored) and it was really good!

It actually looked like this (I found in on Google image search):



Headed to Dave and Busters. Played the racing games first. I won. =p

Next Devvy Chan, Jessica and I (we were the 3 Musketeers of the afternoon) went to the games where you can win tickets and had a lot of fun.

We played air hokey, DDR, a motorcycle racing game, a basketball game, ski ball, this one where you pull a crank and lands on a number of tickets (very high numbers too) and another game where you drop you coins it, and the more you knock down over this ledge, the more tickets you get.

In the end, I only got 857 tickets or so though.

With my tickets I bought a stuffed monkey that reminds me of Cy (I named it Cyro), a shot glass for my dad, a water bottle, a light up push pop, and a Dora tattoo.

=D

The ride back home was fun, Jessica's mom is really nice. =)

Mom picked me up and she had the radio turned up really loud "Shout" was playing. Then Bennie and the Jets came on! =D

Came home, ordered a pizza, and then waited for the pizza and Cyrus to get to my house so we can bring it over to Grammy's.

We talked about many things, and enjoyed coke (the drink), pizza, and klondike bars. For a while we watched Academic Challenge, before moving into the TV room. Deja Vu was on, but we weren't really paying attention to it. Besides, the movie looked boring anyways.

Big Al played a lot with us too. He's a sweet little thing. Get's a big rough though...he bit Cyrus, so Grammy put him in the laundry room area.

Left around 9:20ish, Cy drove me home, and then he had to leave quickly.

After he left, I hung out in the bedroom with mom, I brushed her hair and then braided it and she played with my hair too.

=)

Then I watched a bit of SNL with her (the House guy was hosting tonight and he spoke with his accent!).

Now I'm here talking with Cyrus. =)

And yes, it is 3AM.

=p

Going to the Golf thing at the IX Center tomorrow (or actually, latter on today) with Dad and Mr.Grayson.

Then I have golf practice too.

Fun stuffs, fun stuffs!

Taking The Day Off

Turns out I didn't need to fake sick, I guess my back didn't want to go to school either. Was killing me. =/

Slept most of the day.

Woke up at 12:18 and went down to get food.

Worked on the stuff to Valentines Day up my blog.

The playlist is complete.

I can't wait to post it up. =D

Should be happening sometime next week.

Dad is in a fit and mom is way stressed.

Dad's mom got really sick in Florida and refused to eat because she puked, which in turn made her so weak that she fell on the steps to their little trailer they go to for the winter there.

She's been in the hospital, and apparently she's gotten worse.

My grandpa refuses to learn how to use a cell phone, they still haven't called their doctor here in Ohio, and now we've just heard they've been giving her the wrong medication.

Mom is stressed and raging because of all the stupidity at the hospital and is pitching a bitch about Dad's parents. Dad is in a fit because his mother is in the hospital, and Mom is pitching a bitch about his parents.

JJ is crying because Dad is yelling at him over stupid shit due to the fact that he is in a fit because his mother is in the hospital, and Mom is pitching a bitch about is parents.

So now Mom is stressed and upset because Dad is yelling at her for pitching a bitch about his parents and yelling at JJ for no reason because he's in a fit over his mother being at the hospital which is making JJ cry, which pisses my Mom off and causes her a whole other person to deal with.

This in turn makes JJ pissed and crying because Dad is yelling at him and yelling at Mom, who is yelling at Dad, so now JJ is yelling at Dad for yelling at him and yelling at Mom and saying he hates his life, the world, and him.

So now Dad's pissed and hurt at JJ's words, his mother being in the hospital, and Mom pitching a bitch at his parents and now yelling at him for yelling at JJ.

So now, my brother is crying in his room and refusing to come out, Mom is in the garage smoking a pack of cigs while ranting to her mother, and Dad is down in the basement with the dog.

I on the other hand am sitting upstairs with the cat really wishing that I could have just gone to school and stayed there.

*sigh*

On better news, I came up with an epic idea for Cyrus' Valentines Day present!

It's so win.

I've gotten many "aaaaawwweee"s over it. =D

ily.

Presents, Jokes, and Booze

Top 3 favorite presents:

- My varsity jacket
- My FUZZY toe socks
- My new slipper shoe things

=D

What's your favorite present??

=D

Woke up around 8:30 and came downstairs.

I got more clothes but that's about it.

Sadly it wasn't a white Christmas, but I did see a few flurries drop!

Was Dad's little 'elf' and went over to the neighbors to give them presents.

Gretta knew it was my Dad in the suit though. Ya just can fool these 6 year olds anymore nowadays.

Out of all the jokes I heard today, I think my dad told the best one, as always. There was a gay guy in the joke and my Dad does the best and funniest gay accent. =p

It's better to hear it than read it though so I'm not gonna post it on the blog. I'll film my Dad saying it. =p

Aunt Bev and Uncle time came over with Matt, haven't seen him in a year. We used to be really close cousins but now we've like, grown very far apart. =/

Drank 4 huge glasses of booze.

=p

At first I was going to keep drinking and see how many it would take till I got shit faced but then I realized that:

1. Although I'd probably be funny as hell when I'm drunk I don't think my parents would appreciate me getting wasted in front of company
2. I'm going on a date with Cy tomorrow
and 3. At the end of the night tomorrow I'll be meeting some of his other relatives, and I don't think having a hang over would be the BEST first impression

=p

So in the end, I kinda just kept drinking until I got in trouble. =p

Well, that's about it for now!

=D

Merry Christmas!!!

It's about midnight right now, so of course JJ and I are still up.

I'm chillin in his bed on the laptop while he's in a sea of Legos putting some Star Wars ship together.

7675 pieces.

o.o

We always do this type of thing every year, it's become sort of a brother-sister tradition.

When we were younger we would sleep next to the door in my room (since it was closest to the steps) and try to stay up late and meet Santa.

Now we just kicks out the sleeping bags, choose one of our bedrooms and stay up till the crack of dawn. =)

Christmas Eve at my Grammy's house was the same as it is every year.

Same dinner, same time we open presents. Dad acts like an asshole, and mom is sick.

Then it gets too hot in the house, so we open up a window and turn off the gas fire, then I whine about it being off until it gets turned back on again.

=p

My Grammy, Uncle, and his girlfriend, Gina, got me some really cool outfits. I'm so excited to wear them to school.

OH!

And remember when you guys used to call me your 'little hippie'?

I got bell bottom jeans!!!

=D

Awesomeness.

I dunno if they fit though....need to try them on...

Heh, it was so hard wrapping the headphones I got for JJ and Dad.

The packaging was so aklsfdhljhsaflkhasfkljhf!

I was watching Tomorrow Never Dies on Spike.

They were doing their holidy Bondathon.

Tons of James Bond movies.

I have the starting song Tomorrow Never Dies by Sheryl Crow on Melvin.

I downloaded Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better (Bernaddette Peters & Tom Wopat version) and The Phantom Of The Opera them song from the 2004 movie.

=p

Going on a date with Cy tomorrow!

^-^

We're gonna chill out at my place before going to dinner and a movie.

=)

*sigh* I'm kinda bummed right now...all it did was rain today, no snow, just big puddles of mud. =/

Well that's all for now, blog about the rest of Christmas later!

Happy Holidays!

Also!

Don't forget about the contest! See the post below!!

=D

I Can't Wait...

For Christmas break.

Alright, lets travel back in time to Saturday.

Cy and I went to the point break tournament.

It was freaking awesome, better than in PE.

I was hit by at least 3 balls though while sitting in the stands. =p

Put up the tree!



That's what it looks like with the lights off...



And with the lights on...

We were being silly too, I found this light thing my Dad uses when he's working sometimes and put it on my nose like a Reindeer. So JJ did it too. =p



XD iloveit.

Stayed up until at least 2 in the morning talking to Cy. =)

He says he's going to get me this for Christmas.

It's a video game called Left 4 Dead.

Epic, no?

Killin zombies ftw.

Today Carly came over for a few seconds.

She gave me my Eclipse book back and I gave her my Breaking Dawn book.

She's reading them like mad. =p

Cyrus picked me up around 2 and we went to Target to buy his Adopt A Family Child a few gifts.

The little kid had asked for a toothbrush and toothpaste. =(

We got him a ToothTunes, and a fuzzy Speed Racer blanket that lit up. =D

And JJ and I found this motorcycle model maker thing that my brother had never even opened! =)

Went back to his house to wrap the gifts (I think we did a good job) and then finished up the movie Showtime that we had started Friday.

His mom came home around 4ish with the little guys.

Ya know how Darayus beats up Cyrus and calls me his 'girlfriend'?

Well, Devon has started calling me girlfriend too.

XD

Devon: hey grilfriend
Cy: No, no, Devon, this is Ashley can you say Ashley?
Devon: Ashley
Cy: Good, good-
Devon: *runs off* bye girlfriend!
Cy: *shakes his head*

=p

I think it's cute. ^-^

Played with the little guys down in the basement. They threw things at Cyrus because I was holding his hand and they said he was hogging me. =p

Then I played with the toy trains with Devon before having to leave.

=/

Made myself a bacon, ham, and cheese sandwich.

And I didn't even burn the house down while I was making the bacon!!

=O

There's hope for me yet I guess. =)

Heh...I remember when Carly and I set her microwave on fire while making popcorn...3 times...

=p

2 of the times it wasn't our fault!!

Dad and I rented The Dark Knight, very good movie, 3rd time I've seen it now.

Dad liked it too.

They better not ruin it and make a sequel...

Speaking of which, HERE is some info for you Twilight movie lovers.

=)

School tomorrow...should get some shut eye...

YOU'RE WHAT?!

So I got text messages from at least 8 random people who I don't know asking me "OMFG ARE YOU GOING OUT WITH CYRUS?! LAWLZ!"

I still don't know who those people are either...

me: who is this
reply: I go to Nordonia

Oh my gosh, no shit! =O

-_-

But anyways, studied more of my vocab for Spanish and English this morning.

Test tomorrow in Geometry...50 points...think I got it down...

Going to be starting our PE Olympics tomorrow, which will replace the written exam unless you don't participate in it.

My dunker senses were tingling today, I got THREE extra this time instead of my normal two.

Heh, I felt like I was going to puke I ate so much...

But there's soooo good...

Heh, it's such a scam, bread with meat sauce, and yet almost everyone goes crazy over them. =p

Believe I did well on my Spanish quiz, Cyrus had quickly quizzed me on list B during lunch.

Thanks Cyrus! =)

Discovered in lunch that Peaches, Devvy Chan's, and my thighs were all hurting. It was weird, like an omen.

Que twilight zone music.

Senorita Smith could only stay for the first half of the class, and then Mrs. Reulbach came to sub for us! Epicness.

History today Jake had his hands under his desk and Mr. J said that was making him nervous. =p

Ariel isn't happy about me going out with Cyrus, she's sent me e-mails that say "Congrats" but it's easy to tell that they're really saying "You hurt my feelings, I like 50 billion other guys and Cyrus is one of them, how dare you go out with him."

Blah.

Got home, watched some Court TV with my mom (ah, so many stupid people) and then went upstairs to take a 30 minute nap...which actually turned more into like, a 3 hour nap. =p

Cyrus called me in the middle of it, which I was glad because I told myself after I was done talking with him I'd get up, but I fell back to sleep.

Don't yell at me, do you know how warm and comfy my electric blanket and pillows are on my bed?!

You're welcome to find out. ;)

Heh heh bad Ashley. =p

Had Dad's famous grilled cheese for dinner, it's the best. Way better than your Dad's.

Be jealous.

Crying is an option too.

=p

Worked out and putted downstairs in the basement.

I blame Dad for almost killing me while I was doing bench, I nearly strangled myself.

Ya see, while doing bench (and any other work out for that matter) you need to breathe right. Well, while I was doing my set he was breathing with me and I told him he looked almost like his was in labor the way he was.

So during my next set he grabbed the water bottle and screamed "OMG IT JUST BROKE!!" spilled some water on the ground, and ran out.

XD

I nearly dropped the bar though...he had to come back and help me lift it up. =p

Quickly showered then helped my mom type up a document and called Cyrus.

Been trying to find him Christmas gift online...it's so cool...and funny too...but sadly it hasn't been going well...

I don't even know if they make it anymore...

=/

I will find it though!

Painted my nails to stop myself from biting them, it's worked out so far. They're all pretty and red. =)

Heh, JJ was complaining about needing money to buy Christmas presents so I started singing to him "Why don't you get a job you b-b-b-bum."

=p

Well that's it for now.

TGIFS (Thank Goodness It's Friday....Soon)

=p

Teddy Bears, Seizure Man, Popcorn, and Puppies

Epic physics lab today.

Mr. O'Brien brought out this little teddy bear named Wendell!!!

Wendell is such an awesome name.

XD

Anyways, after demonstrating newtons law of motion using Wendell, Mr. O'Brien demonstrated inertia by lighting a candle and placing the candle and a bunch of fine China on this table cloth, and swishing it out from underneath it.

I must say though, the experiment with the blow torch was better, even if Mr. O'Brien wouldn't let me touch it. =p

When I walked into math class today I discovered that the huge beanie back chair was gone!

Apparently the owner came back and retrieved it.

=(

Got a 55/50 on that WWI Essay.

I have to say it...

fuck yeah.

I'm showing it to EVERYBODY. =D

During my art period today I signed out a pass to go to my locker. On the way there I was passing the cafe when suddenly the smell of popcorn hit my nose.

I said to myself "I smell popcorn" and the teacher turned around and went "You sure do! Want some?!"

So I got free popcorn. =)

ZOMG

Guess who I saw today.

Seizure Man!!!

I haven't seen him since PE last year when Ed and I gave him that nickname!!

I had to use every ounce of strength in me not to run up and hug him.

=p

At at Pat Dee's for this pizza night.

We brought JJ's friend Steven along with us. I love that little guy. =p

When we dropped him off, we all went inside his house because we knew he had an early Christmas surprise waiting for him.

It was a puppy!

=D

You should have seen the look on his face. He was all like O.O

They named the puppy Elli.

=)

Friday night here at the Costello's which means Dad's buddies come over for pool and beer.

I might try Mr. Grayson at a game.

=p
