Another Long While

Hellos followers!

It's been a long time!

I'm sorry, I just haven't had the desire to blog for awhile. I'm either too busy or too tired to.

=/

The only thing exciting that's been happening at the house is a game I think I'm gonna call Kaboom.

How do you play?

You pick any topic under the sun, whether it be how you're doing, the weather, politics, religion, your favorite color etc.

How do you win?

The longer you can talk to my Dad without him suddenly exploding on you, ya win.

3 minutes is my record. =)

The lovely Jackie is hosting a Halloween party at her house, I can't wait! I helped her gather some of the Halloween decorations at my house yesterday, and the day of the party I'm going over early to help set up. =D

Red Ribbon Week is this week.

I hate it, and the fact that I didn't think about the fact that I was putting a red shirt on this morning. So today I looked like I supported it.

Fuck.

The lady asked me if I would sign the pledge again today and again I said no.

And again she looked at me as if I were Satin.

I'm sorry, but I'm set on the plan of trying a little weed after I graduate. Don't like it? Then piss of.

And yes I do support it being legalized.

While waiting in line for lunch today the really small freshie that looks like a 4th grader started talking to me (or rather my boobs, since that's where she came up to). We talked about Ketchup. =p

Went to the docs and got my flu shot (not the Swine flu one, you're lucky if you got that one). I got Dora stickers!! =D

Applied for a job at Fun n' Stuff. Also going to apply for a job at Burlington and maybe Peppers too. =)

And with that, I leave you all farewell and with one question to answer:

How do you release your anger and frustration?

*Cough*

Jeez, everyone is getting sick. Friends are sick, family is sick. Hell, even I've been sick for the past week. They shut down University school for a week too because so many kids were out sick.

=/

Nothing very exciting happened during school today.

But after school I did have a blonde moment.

So I go to Kohl's to get an application. After finding the customer service desk they refused to give me an application because I was 16 and now 17.

But here's the fun part.

When I walk out the door to the parking lot again I notice something....

The car isn't there.

At first I thought it was the normal, hey you're in the wrong row but as I started looking around, I couldn't see it still.

Next I tried hitting the unlock button, hoping the lights would flash and attract my attention. However, no lights either.

Kinda think of it, none of the cars looked like mine.

I called my Mom up and asked how to turn the panic alarm off on the car once you press the button (so I didn't look like a moron when I hit it to find the car and not being able to shut it down) and she asked me why I needed to.

I told her I couldn't find the car and I took a deep breath and pressed the panic button on the keys...

No alarm. No ringing. No nothing.

Naturally I started freaking a little and thinking the worst.

But Mom came to the rescue!

You see, I hardy ever shop at Kohl's (wonder why I wanna work there huh? =p) thus, I don't know the layout all that well.

So when my Mother asked me "Well, are you in the right parking lot?"...well...yeah.

Turns out there are two parking lots that look exactly the same.

.....

But the car was in the other one!!

Tonight everyone (except Dad) is sick in the house, and he's going out of town tomorrow. So I'm going to take care of Mommy and JJ tomorrow.

I'm sensing a pajama 'party'?

Remember...

Those horror movies you'd watch or still watch?

Like Scream, Halloween or Prom Night?

Do you think anybody would ever do something like that?

Just decide to kill someone for no real reason I mean.

Yeah, I wish it could never happen either.

I don't know whether it's because I was already stressed and upset from my week or if it had nothing to do with anything entirely but this story I saw on Nancy Grace disturbed me so much I almost puked.

I couldn't find the video but I did find the transcripts...:

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Breaking news in the shocking Boy Scout murder. Investigators say there could be additional arrests in the case.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: The participants intended to kill the occupants of the home, if anyone was present.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Four teens currently arrested in the machete hacking death of 42-year-old nurse Kimberly Cates. Kimberly Cates died of multiple stab wounds to her head, torso, arm and leg -- her 11-year-old daughter surviving, now recovering at a Boston children`s hospital.

Investigators gearing up -- multiple search warrants executed, dozens of people interviewed, as authorities search for motive and possibly additional suspects.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Christopher Gribble (ph) is charged with the most heinous crime -- murder in the first degree.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Prosecutors say Christopher Gribble was armed with a knife and Stephen Spader had a machete. Authorities say William Marks and Quinn Glover were also armed when they entered 4 Trow Road in Mount Vernon. Kimberly Cates and her 11-year-old daughter were sleeping inside.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: They targeted this home, essentially ran (INAUDIBLE), because it was on an isolated road.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Gribble and Spader face three charges that include first degree murder. Prosecutors say both suspects hit Kate and her daughter with their weapons. Kimberly Cates allegedly died in her bed, while the 11-year-old suffered serious injuries.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: She remains in the intensive care unit. It doesn`t appear that her -- her injuries are life-threatening. But that isn`t, by any means, to minimize the severity of the attack.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: A sixth grade girl is brutalized.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: The participants intended to kill the occupants of the home if anyone was present.

(END VIDEO TAPE)

GRACE: Straight out to Joe Dwinell with the "Boston Herald." Joe, I`ve just heard the disturbing news that the little 11-year-old girl`s toes were hacked off.

JOE DWINELL, REPORTER/EDITOR, "THE BOSTON HERALD": Exactly. Sources tell "The Herald" that the girl`s toes were chopped off in this heinous attack. She`s now recovering in the Children`s Hospital in Boston and they discovered her toes at the crime scene.

GRACE: To Dr. Lee Vinocur with the University of Maryland School of Medicine, Dr. Vinocur, is there any way -- I know of other body parts -- hands, legs, fingers that have -- and more -- that have been reattached?

Is that a possibility here?

VINOCUR: Well, I mean, it depends on the amount of time and when they found the toes and if they transported them and they didn`t have a long ischemic time. But certainly, with fingers, which are more useful, it depends on which toe. A big toe, they will spend the time to transplant because it helps with balance. But sometimes a baby toe, to go through all that surgery, they might not do that.

GRACE: Why did you say ischemic?

What is that?

VINOCUR: Ischemia means how long the toes were off before they could put them on ice and get the blood vessels to contract so that the tissue doesn`t start to die.

GRACE: OK...

VINOCUR: So you want to get the, you know, the part brought to the hospital.

GRACE: As fast as you can.

To the lawyers, Susan Moss, Mickey Sherman, Anne Bremner. You know, Mickey Sherman, that was to torture that little girl. That was to torture her. Now, you can`t tell me anybody is caught up in the heat of passion, they`re all in a pack mentality and then I find out the little 11-year-old girl has her toes chopped off with a machete. I can hardly form the words, Sherman.

SHERMAN: I didn`t do it. The problem is it`s indefensible. It is absolutely indefensible. I mean, you know, this is why people embrace the death penalty. And, you know, we saw because of the fallibility of the criminal justice system and The Innocence Project results, we say we`ve got to get rid of the death penalty.

And then comes one of these cases, which I call the end of the end of the death penalty, because we all want to say, let`s kill these guys and then we`ll get -- get rid of the death penalty.

GRACE: We are showing you photos. Take a look at this, Mickey, Anne, Susan. These are some of the guys that are now being held on murder and attempted murder on an 11-year-old little girl, murder of the mother. Here are the photos of the suspects from Facebook.

Now, I especially want to show, Rosie, the shot of one of them holding a knife.

Could you please get that one for me?

There you go. And I believe there`s one more holding a knife. There you go.

Now, how would you like to bring that home to dinner, Dr. Lillian Glass?

DR. LILLIAN GLASS: Horrible. It`s -- it`s just egregious. And it shows there`s a lot of sadism. You can see it in their faces. It`s -- it`s repulsive. It sounds like a ritual type of behavior.

GRACE: Out to Clark Goldband, our producer on the story.

What more can you tell me?

CLARK GOLDBAND, NANCY GRACE PRODUCER, COVERING STORY: We are standing by, Nancy, for breaking news. Authorities not ruling out additional arrests. We know four suspects already there in custody, but authorities on the ground questioning more witnesses and seeking more answers.

Also, Nancy, as you talked about, that 11-year-old girl had her toes removed and unfortunately...

GRACE: Don`t say removed. Don`t say removed. That`s not what happened.

GOLDBAND: It was...

GRACE: They hacked her toes, a little girl`s toes -- what is that, the fourth of fifth grade -- off with a machete, Clark. They didn`t remove them. Don`t -- don`t sugar coat what has happened to this family.

The father is out of town working to make a living. He leaves for one night. That night, his wife is murdered asleep in her own bed and his daughter is nearly hacked to death. And now, Boy Scouts and a Mormon missionary being held on murder charges.

What can you tell me about these alleged perpetrators, Joe?

Joe joining us from "The Boston Herald."

DWINELL: I can tell you a lot. Christopher Gribble -- that`s the one with the knife. He was supposedly going to go on a Mormon mission. But he also spoke about how the commandment of thou shalt not kill was -- was -- he was having trouble getting over that.

Facebook friends tell us that Christopher was just racked with hate, anger, rage. And this is also true of Stephen Spader. He, too, was dark. He had turned from a kid who was into, you know, theater, to someone who is just full of hate.

They went, in the early morning hours of Sunday, and just hacked this -- allegedly hacked this family apart.

GRACE: I`m just -- I`m just sick. I`m sick at heart. This child holding onto her life at the hospital. The father -- no more wife, no more mommy. And I`ve got to tell you, trying to raise two children, it takes two.

So Today...

Yeah.

It was a bad day.

Very bad morning.

Somewhat good afternoon.

Horrible evening.

Great now.

This morning my Mom told me that JJ had to go to the ER last night because his leg pain was so great and his dumbass doctor won't give him any more pain pills.

But I digress.

I've had a lot of weight on my shoulders for the past few weeks, and I guess I just needed to...let it all out?

As soon as my Mom told me about my brother I started bawling. I cried on the bus, I cried at school, cried some more, cried at golf to the point where I was shaking and nearly cried after golf because I was freaking and saying how much of a "horrible sister" I am and how I "hate myself."

Which wasn't the main reason it was just the last thing that set me off ya know?

But the good thing about today is that I got lot's of hugs and I'm happy now. =)

AND NO GOLF TOMORROW!!!!

*back flips*

And may I say I just love you guys so much?

Hug tackles will be given on sight tomorrow. So watch out. =)

Oh, and this Dane Cook skit reminded me of today (sorry it's not the actualy footage...yt didn't have it...):

How Does It Feel Being An Upper Classman?

I'll tell you tomorrow.

Cheers to the beginning of homework, tests, Mrs. Pitts (A.K.A Bitchy Study Hall monitor), stress, laughs, friends, and not sleeping for days in the row!

Giving Up

I'm gonna give up anything school related this weekend.

Any homework I'm not gonna do.

I'm not gonna study for any tests.

I'm not going to do shit.

School has made me so tired, stressed, and pessimistic I'm at the point where I really want to break things, punch people, then kill myself.

I really do hate school.

Sure, I'll tell teacher and others OMG I LOVE IT. I'll get myself pumped at the end of summer vacation. Tell myself to get ready to learn some new things, get some knowledge.

But really.

I hate it.

I wish we never had school or they changed the way we can get an education.

I would rather be doing manual labor in my Dad's warehouse.

Yeah I know, what a crazy teenager. I want to do work and not look like a fat ass.

But seriously, I don't give a flat fuck if my grades drop. I'm not doing anything.

I'm tired of being stressed and negative and worrying about tests, and homework and I'm tired of just having to 'deal with it' or 'get used to it'.

I've done that with enough shit already. I can stop doing it with school for awhile.

Society needs to find a better way than having kids spend 7 hours a day on their asses with the exception of standing up and sitting down to change classes and ruining their sight by staring at a text book or overhead or chalk board all day.

I say we quit the text books and start going out into the real world at an younger age and actually learning something instead of just trying to pass a class.

Like I do with almost all of mine.

I know you can only get something out of school by making something out of it...but really, there's hardly anything you can make.

Except maybe stress, depression and negativity.

Log 253

It is currently 11:30PM.

I have successfully escaped the kitchen and helping mom with Christmas cards to study for my test.

Most of the essay has been written for me to study from. The mission has proved to be a success.

There have been many casualties though.

Time to chat with Cyrus and friends has been lost, and my positive attitude has been shot down by over tiredness.

The odds aren't looking too good.

Whats that?

Oh- oh my gosh!

The great white hunter approaches!!!

H-he sees me!

I must hide before- noooooo!

slfkdsflkjsafjsdcoi;jsacdlkjsadcf sd;nf;sfkjdsiodchasdhc



Ya know, sometimes it's really annoying when Hamilton walks on my keyboard...

I think he's trying to spell hi, and failing most epically.

=/

Should be going to sleep but I feel compelled to blog now that I'm up and pretty awake from studying for that stupid test tomorrow in English...

Blah.

In math today we had a sub, for sub, for a sub.

Yes, very cunfuzzling.

Maybe this will help?

Mr. D was subbing for Mrs. C who was subbing for Mama L, who was subbing for Mr. L.

Heh, I don't think it helped. =p

Mat Ball Monday today in PE.

While Julia and I were standing in line to kick people were trying to read what my hoodie said.

They were all like: "Cute...but..what?"

And I was like "Cute but mental, read the boob man!"

Then Julia came up and said that she could only read braille.

=p

We're silly gooses.

My red folder is completely destroyed. =(

This will be the 3rd new one I need and my last one was plastic too.

NOTHING IS SAFE IN THE BACKPACK OF ASHLEY!

o.o

In English class we got our Winter Idyll poems back.

I gots 40/40!

=D

There were scribble marks in pen on the paper though. She told me her son made them, apparently he liked the poem too. =)

I'm glad it appealed to all ages. =p

Cyrus was one point away on his STATS test from getting a sticker so I'm bringing him one tomorrow!

=D

Has anyone seen the journalist that tried to beam Bush in the head with his shoes?

Funny stuff.

Although it is causing quite a stir.

Now, off to bed!

I Really Should Be Asleep

It is now 1:39 on this lovely Sunday night.

I should be asleep but I'm wide awake, many things going through my mind right now.

Ah, I feel a very negatively vibed post coming on, feel free to skip down to the much more happier post about my Sunday under this one blog readers.

There's also a rant that's gonna be in here too...I can feel it...

Attempted to work on the binder for VV, tried to listen to the prowl tours online but it has proven to be impossible to concentrate on. It's so boring to listen to, and each of the prowls are 30-45 minutes long.

I really wish we could have actually gone on the prowl.

=/

Answered most of the other questions in the binder though.

I could write my journal right now, but I dunno what to say. I'm not good with all this industry and businussy stuff. Really all I got is that Cleveland should use the lake front property for things like shops, and hotels and other such things. Many major cities do that, it seems to bring in some business, and might make people want to move there. =/

Blah.

I asked my Dad for some help, asked him why he thought Cleveland went down and why it's taking us so long to get back up to where we were and stuff.

His answer: Taft.

Well shit, that REALLY helped me, thanks Dad.

*rolls eyes*

This week doesn't seem like it will be a very good week. Getting that creeping feeling of overwhelming on my back.

Which, those of you who knew and remember from last year what that could bring back, although I'm trying my hardest not to let it. Found the object to that childishness and will be giving it to my mother I think.

Cyrus was asking me times he could come over and I told him Tuesday and 7 should be okay but then remembered that I workout then and apparently my mom has an appointment for her arm too, which my dad will be going with her to.

><

I'm completely free Wednesday though...

Winter break is coming up, started talking to my dad, telling him how our break is like, 15 days and that I would really like to come back for a few and work in the warehouse of offices.

He said that they were cutting back majorly this month and that he doesn't think I can. =/

Apparently one of our big customers, Chick Master Inc. has gone bankrupt. They had so much sales happening around the world and then they just canceled and everything. Not to mention the top sales rep guy was laid off...

It's like someone just turned the water off or something. My dad's best business for the company so far this year was in October and September and then BAM November hit and everything just stopped.

Damn economy.

What I don't get is that, like, we've seen something like this coming for awhile right? So like, how come we failed at preventing this huge slump from happening?

Blah.

Need to find a way to make money for the holidays and other things.

Thought about shoveling driveways, that would be GREAT for my back huh?

If it were summer I could mow people's lawns...

Was thinking about cleaning my Grammy's and Uncles house's but I dunno...I'd hate to try and scrounge money off of them when they're getting me gifts for the holidays, ya know? =/

Hmmmm...

I'll think of something...

And if any of you suggest robbing a bank JJ's already beat ya to it. =p

Have to stay after school tomorrow to take that essay test...

Got most of the paragraph planned out in my head though, so that's good.

Unless she changes the topic it's on... O.O

It's 2:14 now...

Dammit why can't things like this happen on a Saturday where I DON'T have school the next day.

Meeeeeeeeeeh.

Dad's pestering me about Cyrus has really been getting to my head, but in the sense that if Cyrus asks me out and I say yes he would be in a pissed off mood and hate me or something.

Okay, so he wouldn't hate me, he's my dad, but my dad seems to know how to make my life a living hell (along with everyone else in the house).

Dammit, why do fathers always have to be all big, mean, scary, and negative when it come's to boys?!

And yes, Cyrus is 2 years older than me, which in high school can be a very big difference when it comes to social group, and education and such.

And yes, he'll be going away to college.

But for crying out loud he's making more of a fuss over Cyrus than Zak who's only ambition in life was to lay me and leave.

Ah, the irony in this situation. I sometimes laugh at it.

Debating on whether or not I should just give up sleeping and caffeine my way through the day...

Why do I have this suddenly feeling I have a physics test tomorrow...

Oh boy.

Still haven't found my Spanish book...I should check the lost and found.

Now that I'm done with my rambling and rants lets find the brighter side of all of this...

I can get my mother to help me with my Valley Voyages things tomorrow...

There is still a chance I can work for SWACO during winter break...

As for the economy...well, I dunno, everything gets worse before it gets better.

And I guess it's good that my dad cares, and that all of this is his way of trying to protect me as a father.

I could try and cram 3 hours of sleep in...

Maybe...

Meh.

I guess there aren't only negative things going on in my mind right now. There's friends, a certain someone, snowflakes, and logs on the fire.

*sigh*

Just watch, this will all blow over tomorrow.

Felt good to get it off of my chest though.

I just can't seem to end a post negative now can I?

=p

Roy G Biv

Still rainbowy. Today I wore my rainbow jacket!

Was wide wake this morning until I got to math, then Mr. Lawrence put me to sleep. I dunno why he just does no matter what it seems.

PE I can't really say I did anything, I was too tired to really concentrate and it's not like anybody really gave me the ball. I hate basket ball anyways, either you can do it, or you can't. It's just one thing I won't participate as much in I guess. Although, I did sub in for everyone because they wouldn't come out at play.

Spanish class I learned how to conjugate the ar verb's hablar, estudiar, and stuff really fast. So that's good.

History class Mr. Johansson looked like he was raising breast cancer awareness. Heh, I'm just making fun of him, he wore a pink shirt and tie today. =p

We got to listen to our IPod's too, and then we hooked some up to his speakers. I leaned Jamie Mong has a kick ass song selection. =)

Talked with Cyrus in art today, we always have interesting conversations. =D

English was the usual.

Got home, went online for a bit and then started my homework before mom drove me to Marc's to get a prescription filled for her. I saw Rayy there!!! She asked me what I was getting and I told her drugs. =p

I asked the drug lady if I could pick up the prescription if I showed her my mom's license and after awhile she finally said yes. Then we left, got Mr. Chicken, came back, and she did all these different things to make sure the ID wasn't a fake, and kept glaring at me like the little deliquesce I am.

=D

Watched an episode of CSI before coming online and being attacked by my worried friends. Sorry guys if I sounded like I would bite after awhile. It just got a tiny bit annoying that you guys were freaking out too much. I mean, get organized. Get the small stuff done first, and the things that are due, like, the next day. Don't miss out on homework to try and get something done that's not due until next week. There's the weekend. Also, don't think that an assignment is impossible. If you think that, it is.

I'm not saying don't care about your homework, or that I never panicked about homework before, what I'm saying is that we're all old enough to try and keep from stressing ourselves out over it. And it's not healthy to do that either, and it worries me sometimes because all you guys look so tired and worn out.

=(

I'm glad in the end you got whatever you needed to get done. I think I'm going to look at my English tomorrow in art, I took to long on my journal and I'm tired.

Oh yeah, any of you guys going on the bike trip?! You need to get forms from a history teacher! Loman and Johansson have them!

Rayy and Devvy Chan are going, and Andy too I believe. You all must come!!

=D

Annnnooooyyyyiiiinnnngggg

That last blog postie title....

Jealouse?

>=)

Blah.

Last night Hero's Villains was on from 9-11. I thought when they said 2 hour premier they meant the extra stuff in the first hour (sneak previews, people cheering on the red carpet) and then the next the actually show.

Heh heh...wrong!

I was tired. Even more so my mom was sick so I stayed up and check on her every so often. Sleep wasn't really possible last night.

Which probably leads me to my sour mood this morning. But hey, when you got Ariel glomping on you or Gerber asking me every time I'm a little crabby if I'm freaking slitting my wrists again, you tend to get that way.

Physics I nearly fell asleep in. We did stuff with sounds. Then in math we went to the computer lab today to create our passwords for the online book. We also go tons of homework. Joy. Supposed to have a test tomorrow in his class too, but we're not gonna be their cuz he'll be driving the team to Windmill lakes, leaving us to have to make it up. Brilliant.

PE I was now excited because we were playing softball. Last night my dad and I played catch outside and I batted and I was actually better than I thought I was (skillz!). Well, we get out side, and I had brought my mitt mind you, and........we're playing with a freaking wiffle ball.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

......

Also Zak was being lazy and sat in the dugout. Anoyying. Sad. Shameful.

.....*sigh*.....

Spanish was boring. We were doing this thing with saying which subject pronoun when talking about a person or thing and everybody kept saying you, or we, in Spanish even the teacher told them 15 TIMES (yes I counted) that we were only using el, ella, ellos, and ellas.

Dumbasses.

History was okay. People complained about notes, very annoying. I can't wait till they get to college! =D ... -_-

Art we painted, I'm not very good, and I don't prefer painting but oh well.

Now, here's what really, really, really made my day.

English class the teacher was like "NAH NAH NAH I'VE HEARD THAT YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN TOLD BY OTHER CLASSES THAT WE HAVE A QUIZ OR SOMETHING BLAH BLAH AND THAT'S CHEATING BLAH BLAH AND I WON'T ACCEPT IT BLAH BLAH *blubber jiggles* SO I'M JUST GOING TO MAKE THE TEST HARDER FOR YOU BLAH BLAH NAH NAH BLAH NAH!!!!!"

I got a 3/10.

Ryan got a 1/10.

Fucking ridiculous.

There goes my good grade in that class.

Ugh, and Thursday that stupid consular lady or whatever is coming in. I hate her. She kicked me out of her office because when she asked me what college I was planning on going to I said 'which ever one will take me' and said that I had no future.

Isn't she a load of fun and inspiration.

Wrist was killing me today and worse, coach noticed. I want to play tomorrow too. Windmill is a great course and I know it well. Shot my best game there for crying out loud! If he gives me this, oh well your wrist, and there's always next year crap I'll slap him so hard his head will spin.

....and there goes my grade in math if that happens.....

=)

I'd like to add that stress seems to be on the shoulders of many people. I think a little "I don't care fuck it" attitude helps for some things. For example:

Devvy Chan rushed to English from PE (didn't even change and was so out of breath she looked sick) because they let them into the locker room right when the bell rang, and Lardell said he wouldn't sign out a pass.

1. he was probably meaning the guys
2. the teachers would understand, it happens a lot, no biggie

So if Devlyn would have taken her time, it would have been alright, she would have been changed, and not have to worry about getting her real clothes out of her locker after school.

Now, when it comes to homework, don't us that attitude. I've tried...it doesn't work.

Big surprise there though.

Homework I get the easiest stuff done so I can concentrate more on the harder stuff and take my time and not have to worry about all the other little things I have to do.

When you get home, don't think about all the shit ya gotta do, it'll just overwhelm you.

Figure out what you'll be learning in class the next day. It will help you plan your day, and also get rid of the unknown, which stresses a lot of people (like me) out.

Example: Playing a new golf course in a match. I don't know where to hit or what to do and I lose my head and play bad.

Similar applies for school.

Don't concentrate on your grade, concentrate on doing your homework. You'll be surprised when it goes up and stays up. (at least that works for me, I don't get as worked up ya know?)

Ummm....if you don't know something, ask a friend, or e-mail your teacher.

To keep from forgetting your books during your last period class look in your planner and plan out what you need to take home so you're not rushing at your locker to make the bus.

Think that's some good advice....

Ya don't have to follow it, but if you try it, that would be nice. Hey, maybe it will work, though I'm no advice-giver-person. =p

We're going to Bob Evans tomorrow for breakfast before we go to golf! Weeeeeee!

Get to miss picture day. I'm glad, because I don't like pictures, but I'm defiantly more confident in my appearance.

Wish me luck tomorrow! =D

Top Dog, Crayons, and Relationships

My gosh today I was so nervous I forgot how to spell my own name. Seriously. I was like..Ashl-.......l.....somthing.......

Geometry was boring kinda. Didn't finish my homework, but awe well, I still know how to do the crap.

PE I got picked in the top six people to play that quick football thing! Yay! I feel skilled!!

Lunch I got sick again. But tried to hold it back.

Spanish I got an A on my tests!!! Yippee! Gonna check the grade book right now...

A!!!

Meh, physics teacher is a fricktard. On our lab that we brought home to do for homework it says missing. I'm sure he'll put the points up, but it brings my grade down to a freaking D!!!

=/

History Sara Mayer was so retarded....I swear I just wanna slap some brains into her sometimes...The whole class was complaining about the small amount of notes we had to take. Lazy bums. They're gonna have a rude awakening when they get to college...

Art was fine.

English we listened to some stupid sermon, and she sprayed water on us, lite a candle, shot arrows, and brought a fake spider to peoples desk. I petted it, heh. Then...

COLOWING!!!!

I drew a fire, with a Lepercon looking pilgrim on a string being held by the 'hand of god'!

After class came the moment I was pretty much dreading. I saw Zak in the hall way and I said I needed to talk to him. Guys...

I broke up with him.

Now I'm not saying I hate him, and that he's stupid or anything like that. He's still a great guy, and I enjoyed the time we spent together, but our relationship was going further than I expected (although that's partially my fault) and there is so much crap going on in my life right now, he deserves a better girl that has time for him.

I feel guilty, he looked really down at his locker. I told him I was sorry and gave him a hug, then ran to get my golf clubs.

Golf was okay. Got my swing back. Shot a 52.

Ate Arbeys for dinner, talked to devvy chan, then went online and talked to ryan about golf. Next summer I challenge him and Andy to a match and Shawnee! =D

Heh, Gerber was texting me while I was talking to Ryan and he was like: So how was Arbeys? And I never told him I ate dinner there and when I asked him how he knew he said that he knew everything that goes on around me. XD

He's so cute ^-^ lol

I said that if he knew everything, then what type of thong was I wearing? (as suggested by Ryan) He said ha ha, and that he was really goin to a TI meeting.

OH OH!

In history class today we got bored and Mr. J went on youtube and we found a vid with Collin in it! Take a look:

I think it's hilarious.

That's all for now.

I hope Zak is okay.

Goin Crazy(er)

This is what the lack of a laptop brings me:

- dozens of unwatched youtube vids
- hundreds of e-mails
-millions of unread and unposted days on blogs
and a partridge in a pear tree.

yeah, feeling really crazy right now.

Ummm...lets see....

Friday no Saturday...no.....Friday- I was right the first time. Zak came over. We watched some TV and hung out in the backyard. Had loads of fun.

Saturday got up, helped dad put in the mailbox, cut the grass, went over to my Grammy's house to help her wash the windows and then golfed with my dad. On the third hole there was this dog and she was so cute and so nice and she actually liked me!! She kissed me and then turned over on the green so I could pet her tummy! ^-^ I think she had puppies recently by the way her nipples were.

Shut up don't laugh at me. I know it sounds wrong.

Today I slept in. Dad left for a golf thing and then JJ and I watched National Treasure 2. I didn't like it. Though it's not like Disney was ever good with sequels.

Helped mom when she shopped at Sam's Club because with her arm she couldn't pick up the heavy stuff like water and Gatorade. By the way she's going to the hand guy again on Monday. We're hoping that her arm cn recover fully.

Found Breaking Dawn there, lunged for it, and could barley keep my head out of it while walking around the store. When I wasn't in the book and helping my mom I noticed people staring at me a lot. I freaked out and asked mom if I had anything on my face and looked at my reflection in anything I could find. Mom says it's because I'm so beautiful. As if.

When we were in the parking lot I saw Ala!!! (spelling? Well, the Muslim god.) Seriously. This guy was decked out in a turban hat thing with a gem in the middle, and in white robes with this huge Dumbledor like beard. He looked awesome!! XD

Got Wendys, unloaded the car, read more of Breaking Dawn, ate pancakes for dinner that mom made (cuz she's awesome like that) and now I'm here still feeling insane.

I think I'm stressing about the big golf tournament tomorrow against Copley. Been in Districts 4 years in a row....they're really good....

Oh, here is the golf schedule: http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=70782d5f0d&realattid=f_fjqck0fv&attid=0.1&disp=inline&view=att&th=11baf2ad167dcbc6

So if you guys want to plan anything there are the days I'm doing stuff. If I have practice it usually only lasts about 3 hours or so.

Definitely not going to be able to finish Breaking Dawn tonight. Too stressed. I'll have something to read on the bus ride tomorrow I guess.

First time playing 18 holes of golf in my life. Coach told us to buy food, I was in charge of the chips. =)

Getting a 'golfers tan' too. I should consider sunblock.

Stressing stressing....need a hug and a good club to the head to knock me out.

Deep breaths now....deep breaths....

Omg, omg, omg, omg, HEART ATTACK

Golfed well on Tuesday, shot a 51. Dad made a key point that when I golf at Shawniee I hit at the guys tee's, so if i hit at the girls tee's my score is probably in the high fourties most of the time.

Swamped at work today in the warehouse. FIVE trucks came in today, the day of all days. Larry said 5 trucks have never come before. Well, it came the day there was really only one guy working in the ware house. I tried to pull orders as best as I could (taking the packing slip with the order and getting the parts for it) but I didn't know where the rivets and stuff like that were, so once Larry got caught up with what he was working on we got to those. The skid with all the boxes that were going out UPS was filled to the max.

Got home, and started reading a Dear America book about the Salem witch trials. I couldn't get through it, and it's Devvy Chan's book I borrowed on the last day of school, so I'll give it back to her tomorrow.

Now, here's where the title of the postie comes in to play.

So dad went to go on a bike ride around 7 to ride the high tension wires in the back of our house (that bridge that goes over Vally View is where he would start off). I went upstairs to get my stuff ready for Dev's tomorrow so I didn't forget anything, so I didn't know if he left by car or just rode from our house to the bridge.

I watch some TV, and bring my mom ice packs because the migraine is really hitting her hard. Another load of shit she has to deal with along with her now dead nerve in her arm- which the doc said will never heal- her bad leg from all the injections and stuff she needs to take, a pacemaker- thing to keep her heartbeat normal and stuff like that, if you've noticed the scar near her coller bone- and just plain life in general.

Well I go to look around for dad around 8 because I wanna tell him I'm going golfing on Friday whether he likes it or not. That's all I need is to race around tomorrow. Anyways, I check the basement, not there. Check the barn, not there. Both car's are there, so I could assume that he just took his bike, but there are tire tracks in the grass, but they were there when I got home from work. So I thought he was on his bike trip and went upstairs and then back down to watch TV.

10:00 at night, he still isn't home.

I called around, asked if my dad was anywhere, because maybe he rode over to a buddy of his. Not there. Called his cell 19 times, left 3 messages, no answer. I checked around the house for his phone and listened for it in the garage, but I couldn't hear it. So this is what the situation seems to be:

Dad hasn't come back from his bike ride, which he started 3 hours ago and should have been home, he has his cell phone and is not answering it, he didn't take the car, it's pitch black out, mom is sick and it looks like tonight she'll be going to the ER where they can fuck up her other arm, and my Uncle Scott is out of town.

There is the omg's in the title.

So I call my Grandma, and I go outside to let in the dog and tell her what's up. She say's she'll come over, and as soon as I hang up the phone some dude just walks into the garage (heart attack part in the title). Well I let the dog off her leash and was about to dial the second 1 in 911 when I hear "Shaners! Hey girl."

.................................

It's dad.

He said that he decided to go to bike night at Quaker Steak instead....and his cell phone was in the car. I looked, and turns out it was buried in the arm rest on vibrate. That's why I couldn't hear it.

Mom is still sounding pretty bad, sometimes she'll go to the ER at 3 in the morning. So I dunno. Waiting again. I hope she is okay for tomorrow. Dad will be at work and JJ at summer school until 11:15. I would feel better if she wasn't left home alone.

*sigh*

Yellow Light

So on the traffic light of life it's on yellow right now. This day couldn't get over with fast enough, I'm only on my lunch break right now.

Nothing too exciting has happened today. John ardently shipped off 2 boxes of the wrong part to Danco I believe it was, so that's caused a few minor complications here, but none for me though. The only thing that effected me was that, I think it was Findly, shipped us two boxes and they had mixed parts so I need to go through 30+ boxes and check to see if they have any mixed parts. Stupid Findly, in my opinion they're the most annoying of the customers.

Mostly filed today, I went through all those boxes yesterday but guess whaaaaat, I need to go through them again, but instead of just taking a handful out I need to dump the whole box on a cart and shift through just in case. Then like yesterday I need to put the parts back, tape up the boxes, mark on them if they're okay, move them on the skid (a wooden base like thing), and then strain my back even more. The boxes are like 30 pounds+ each. Meh.

Dad's old friend Mr. Dolphin (i don't know his 1st name) is here and having lunch with him and stuff.

We're having our big party this year, might as well give you the date: COSTELLO JULY 4TH PARTY IS ON JULY 4TH! PLEASE BE THERE! Fireworks show sounds good this year.

That seems like it's it for now. 3 minutes until lunch is over, then I need to look through all those boxes again...*sigh* is it Friday yet?
