What's Another Word for Desperate?

Best way to end Spring Break.

I woke up at 6:30 this morning, as always, despite it being a Sunday. Now, I know you're probably thinking I'm insane, but you'd be doing the exact same thing if you were in my position. ;)

[Wow, I suck. Started this on Sunday, finishing it on Tuesday. >.<]

I arrived at the hill before Shae, but after Plushie (he actually came!). We lay on the hill for a bit, and Shae joined us, but we became a bit bored. (There was a little sunrise! Yay!) So we traveled next door, to the logging company. There Shae and I became men. (Plushie, however, did not. He refused to walk in the puddle.) We also climbed around on top of the logs (I nearly killed myself! xD!) and giant piles of dirt. Then we noticed the parked train and we went over to inspect it.
...I feel like I should not write about this here. XD
Oh well. We climbed on top of the trains! I think P went up first, then Shae, then somehow they convinced me to do the same. I'm glad I did, it was beautiful up there. Such a view! After walking around on that car, I found myself hopping from car to car behind Shae and Plushie. O.o (It did take about ten minutes of "Come on, Courtney! I know you can do it!" But whoo caaares...)

And we saved a puppy!
We were headed back to go home when we heard this loud screeching, screaming sound. We thought a dog was being abused, seriously. Turns out this guy put a puppy he was pet-sitting on his porch (surrounded by fencing), and the dog was throwing a fit. It was raining, I can't believe he'd put someone else's dog out there! When he saw us he tried climbing through the bars of the porch rail. =.= He did actually get out, and P put him back (Shae had to distract the big dog so it wouldn't eat us xD). Then he tried to climb out again, but didn't get so lucky that time. He became stuck, and we had to go knock on the guy's door to let him know. (The dog did eventually wiggle his way out, though.)
Proof:



Then after church (which I nearly missed) we met up again. When Plush and I were headed over on our bikes to meet Shae, I started screwing around and ended up wiping my bike out, and on the shoulder of the road. I thought I was completely fine until we got to his house (we went back for some money), where I realized I had blood streaming down my leg. Long story short, the road took out his big chunk of my knee when I fell. >.< It was reaaaally gross.... I couldn't even look at it straight when I first realized it was there. But hey, I don't have to describe it to you-- you can see for yourself! XDD


YEAH, HUGE IMAGE!
...Because I just like grossing people out with it.

When I came home I changed the bandage. Before I put a new one on, I made sure to go find my mom to show her.
Mom: "Ew, disgusting! Why would you SHOW me that?!" *slams door on my face*
XDD
She thinks I might need stitches, though. :/ I mean, it looks a whooole lot less bloody than in that picture, but it's still pretty deep, and the center still looks gorey. So she's gonna call the doctor today.

Hmm... I still have more to write about, so I'm gonna do what Shae does and make a new post! Sorry :DD

Tonight will be the night I fall for you.

I have an adventure planned for tomorrow!
Wake up early, watch the sunset with my two friends (Plushie might actually come!), engage in some more illegal activity, then go to church. But aaaafter church... LETTERBOXING. Er, well, in my mind. I haven't asked anyone else yet. XD But if they are game, I'm prepared!

Today Plushie gave me an awesome Wocky mini-plushie (Neopets, yo!), and I luff it.
Uhm... I just read that Neopets has petpetpets? O.o; I'm worried. That's weeeird. But my Kacheek, Puchink, is adorable! I just need to change her colour... Stupid fountain, never working!
......Oh, sorry. I got distracted there. XD
Anyway, I went shopping with my mother, and I got some cool stuff. ^_^ I found a Ranma 1/2 movie at Goodwill!!! And OHCRAP Plush and I still have not discussed what we're doing at the next anime club meeting. DX Oh, well, if all else fails, we could just watch Ranma 1/2. xD
Well, I'd better get to bed, as it is growing very late and I am waking up early tomorrow.

Goodnight, my fellow bloggers and readers. <3

Of Ruling the World and Licking Floors

If you haven't checked out my Cbox in the past few days, I am so sorry. You have missed one of the best conversations I have ever been involved in. In short, me and my friends, Shae and Plushie, have been pretty much hijacking each others' names, and... Weell, you can see for yourself:


rubyredslippers: bow to my awesomeness!

Courtney: yes.yes your royal awesomeness, we love you

Plushie: oh we do! most excellent blogger, you are the pinnacle of greatness! we bow in your presence

Courtney: OH. YOU'RE DEAD.

Plushie: HEY HEY HEY!!! No one uses my name but me!!!

Plushie: i am sorry ruby, personality number 5 is misbehaving

Plushie: I only have 3 personalities thank you!!

Courtney: My brain is about to explode. Again.

shae: I'm suprised that doesn't happen more often.

Courtney: ikr? altho i dont have much of a brain to explode so...

Plushie: yes, tis true

shae: PLUSHIE! dont be so mean to poor courtney!

Plushie: Sorry, sorry.

Courtney: Don't be sorry, it's so true.

Plushie: yes, but i was so wrong. you and shae shall rule the world!

Courtney: Oh don't be silly, you are the true ruler of the world Plushie, shae and I are no match for you.

Plushie: but you are, i am weak and powerless, will you let me mop the floors of your fortress when you rule

Courtney: Of course not, someone as magnificent as you should not be mopping floors, you take over the world.

Courtney: I'll do the mopping.

Plushie: no, i shall LICK the floor! it would be an HONOR!

Courtney: There shall be no floor licking for you. Just ice cream.

Plushie: only liver flavored tho. it shall be my penance! i must eat it and think of my sins
shae: Fine, *I* will lick the floor!

shae: Nobody is more deserving.

Plushie: no, please dont. you might get sick! then who would rule the world? allow me to lick the floor...

Plushie: i shall do so with pleasure knowing that you shall be saved

shae: oh, why thank you! You are such a loyal follower.

shae: when you're done with this floor, could you go under my bed? the dust bunnies there are horrendous.

Plushie: of course! it would be my dearest pleasure!! next i shall make you vats of pink lemonade!

Plushie: Nah, I'm just kidding, good luck with the floor licking suckers ;D

Courtney: Oh yeah?You think you're not doing it? I have a dirty floor,too, and I don't see anyone cleaning it!

Plushie: Then you should probably get on that.

Plushie: I'm am so sorry for being so difficult!

Plushie: To make up for it, I shall lick both your floors, and cleans your cats, all with my
tongue!

Plushie: I only hope that will do it justice.

Plushie: Nah, I'm only kidding, I just like messing with you guys X3

shae: i luv this cbox... always makes me laugh. you guys rockl!

I love you guys. <33

"Ich Will Keinen Zentimeter Mehr Zwischen Uns"

"I don't want a centimeter between us."

I saw an icon that said that. ^ (In German, not English.) I really like it.

I really sucked with yesterday's post. XD Sorry 'bout that.

Well, today I woke up early, at 6:30, like I did yesterday, to watch the sunrise. It was so cold that I had to turn my bike around, though, to go get my winter coat and some gloves. Doesn't that suck? It should not be this cold! Anyway. I was the only one there, to my disappointment. But it didn't matter. Shae was right, the hill is most certainly an enchanted place (read Stargirl?). I was wondering when I should go, convinced that there wouldn't be a sunrise again, and when I was starting to decide that I should go, it's too cold... The sky caught on fire.

I'm serious. Imagine these photos are 8x more gorgeous, and that should give you an idea of what it was like this morning.

(this was actually the last one I took.)


The sunrise cast an amazing light on the world behind me. The lighting disappeared with the sun (it hid behind the clouds after the show).

Oh, gosh. I nearly forgot! Remember the little building next to the hill I mentioned in the last post? There were men there this morning, and the door was open! But... But...!!! By the time I inconspicuously rode by bike to that side of the hill, they door was closed so much that there was only a tiny crack in the door, and I couldn't get close enough to see inside. v.v
When I was looking at the sunrise, I caught one of the men looking at me. He was just staring, then took a step forward, but I raised my camera to the sky at that point, and he turned away. I don't know if it was a coincidence or what, but it was kind of funny. :3 I'm not a hoodlum! (Not really!)

In other news, I want to plan a trip to the zoo sometime in the following months (even though I hate zoos), so if anyone is interested... Drop me a hint. ;) (And yeah, you have to live within a twenty mile radius of me!)
Also... Anyone interested in going to a Superchick concert? In May? At the best amusement park in the world? Who can drive? (I'm sorry, the last one is a requirement... Kidding. But it would be really nice. We don't have a ride yet. v.v)

g h o s t i e

Yeah... I fail at posting when I need to. :/ (Even more at journalling when I need to. >.<) Here's my schedule today:

6:30am- Wake up. Press snooze.
6:35- Hear my mom playing the piano downstairs.
6:37- Decide I'd better just get up and stop waiting for my alarm to go off.
7:00- Meet Shae at the hill.
7-7:30- Chat with Shae, wait for the nonexistent sunrise to appear, make plans. I honestly can't remember what time it was at this point- We waited for some men to drive away from this small house/shed-like building that's next to the hill. Once they were gone, we inspected the lock on the door, determined that we could not pick it with a bobby pin, and carried this big heavy rock up the hill. The rock rolled down once we got it up there, so it took us another few minutes to roll it back up. =.= But once we got it up we realized that it wasn't quite tall enough to get us up on the roof, then some guy pulled up in a truck and waved us away angrily.
Whoknowswhattime-9:00- Have breakfast/work on my essay for English
9-9:50 (am)- Play the Sims
3 10-11:00- go to the coffee shop with Shae, buy a delicious cinnamon roll, and play Lakewoodopoly (a crack version of Monopoly xD) and lose.

Okay, so that's just my morning. But for the rest of the day I pretty much just played Sims 3, worked on my essay, and browsed the interwebs. At one point I erased my whiteboard and wrote some new stuff on it. But that's it. :/
Tomorrow I'll work on doing stuff in the afternoon, too!

But for now I am falling asleep,
