And I want a moment to be real, want to touch things I don't feel, want to hold and feel I belong....

Treasure planet everyone. Go see it. Listen to the rave reviews, this movie is perhaps one of the best animated flicks I've ever seen. Take yourself, take your offspring, take your best friend- JUST SEE THE DAMN MOVIE!

By the way, Silver is very, very, VERY hot. Butter me up some cyborg love bay-be!  Ah, if only he were real...*dies of happiness*

Update: I have two words for you people: Nitric Oxide. This gas is the god of dentistry; it completely roxxors my world ^_~ Absolutely no pain with this baby; in about two minutes I was so floaty I couldn't care less where he was planning to stick the needle, but I could still appreciate the lovely tunes of Alien Ant Farm and Juno reactor on the CD I was listening to. Although it's starting to hurt a bit now that I'm home and the anesthesia is wearing off, for anyone as terrified of dentistry as I was, trust me- TAKE THE DAMN GAS. In other news, I am now cured of my dentistry phobia and my horrible traumatizing experience at 7 is now begining to fly away. All hail the magic Conch Shell! I mean, Nitric Oxide. Then again, is there a difference?

This update has been brought to you by the lovely Nitric Oxide; get it from your dentistry professional today! 

******

Today folks, is the end of me. Why you ask? Because I, Ashlee am going to the dentist. Not just for any old checkup mind you, but to suffer an even worse fate- getting my fillings replaced. 

Mind you, I wasn't always scared of the dentist, though I can't remember a time when I wasn't. And I'm not so much afraid as I am terribly nervous. Every trip to the dentist I've ever been on seems to involve horrible, gum-tearing, floss-slicing pain as the dentist's assistant attempts to clean my teeth. Actually I think their goal is to draw as much blood as humanely possible, but maybe it's just me. And my fear of  getting fillings done stems from an EXTREMELY bad experience I had when I was seven; I'll always remember that day. The place I got them done was in Manhattan, some fancy super-expensive dentist with a waiting room done up like a hotel lobby. It was awful; the room I was in was really dark and the light was really bright and shining in my eyes. It was like a scene out of some black and white B horror movie. The dentist's assistant guy had on this really scary bunny mask and he was swaying around with that awful little hook thing and the water shooter in his hand and the main dentist kept pulling at my tooth and telling me "It's just pressure."

Guess what bitch, pressure hurts!

To be frank, I don't like any medical professionals save my orthodontist. He's got a nice friendly office, his assistants are great and he supports a lot of community sports. But all my other medical people, they're as cold as ice and work like robots. They couldn't give a crap about you, you're just a file they pull out of the wall every six months or so. I really don't like my current dentist either; he's nice enough I suppose, but I see him for all five minutes while the other twenty are comprised of my being subjected to instruments of torture from his assistants. And now I'm getting fillings done by them...luckily I'm getting the gas this time, because you really don't want me to launch into my needle rant.

Mm. Other than that, nothing too interesting going on. Just finished part of my Aladdin fic and posted it up on the Aladdin Mailing list. Mmhm, yup. Excuse me while I go crawl into corner, curl into the fetal position and sob, savoring my last few pain-free hours before they obliterate my back teeth. Ta dawlings. 

By the way, I apologize for my sporadic updating schedule. HP history had officially taken over my life, and my recent report card requires I dedicate more time to schoolwork. And before you say anything, I'm not failing any classes! I did, however, get two C's which need to be brought up. So hm, yes. See ya when I you all.

Mmmm. Nothing quite as relaxing as walking home from school in the pouring rain with the soothing sounds of your CD player to keep you company. I love afternoon rain; it takes over my focus and washes away all my concerns and thoguhts from the rest of the day. Give myself over completely to the music...ah, it's wonderful.

Morning rain, on the other hand, sucks. There's nothing worse than dragging yourself out the door at 7:30 and having to rush to school (starts at 8 for me, and it's about 20-25 minute walk) in the muck, yuck and disgusting. Same thing applies when I'm shopping or out at nighttime. But afternoon rain; ah, that's the best. 

Got some guys across the street who agree with me; out of all the nice, clear days we've had, they're out there playing football in the muddy grass at the park. But any sport gets better when it's slippery out! I love playing in the rain...and cloudy days...rain, rain, rain...

I just came back from what is probably number five on my list of worst meals ever, courtesy of my parents dragging me on another of their my-friend-at-work barbecues. After years of being dragged to parties to sit for an hour in uncomfortable silence with people I don't know and then being expected to sit there and eat their half-assed barely palatable food, I'm of the opinion that barbecue food is the worst kind in existence. Mind you this only applies to any and all barbecues held by other people; the ones we have at my house for just the three of us are wonderful. The ones at other peoples houses consist of bloody hamburgers, bubblegum flavored vegetarian hotdogs and cans and bottles of just about every flavor of Budweiser imaginable, but only two flavors of soda from some generic brand company. Gotta love the cooking-challenged and the cheap. 

Mind you, the disgusting, bland food wasn't the worst part. First of all, this party had about ten different flavours of chicken...but not rice. WTF? How can you eat chicken without rice? Ok, you can, I've done it before, but generally you eat that much chicken with SOMETHING. Even if you go to KFC you get at least one side order to eat in-between bites. But no such luck here; chicken as far as the eyes can see. And crawfish. Now, let me tell you about the crawfish. 

Maybe it's me, but I don't like the idea of having my main course and its twin brothers staring at me from my plate. See, it's things like that almost make me consider going vegetarian. Crawfish are freaky looking little creatures; they have beady little eyes and a whole freaky network of whiskers and claws and veins and all sorts of other little lines and protrusions that shouldn't be on any of mother nature's animals. And god, do they taste BAD. Crap. I mean, just CRAP. I got to wash down that delicious crap with some wish-it-were-spicy shrimp, which can best be described as the taste of cardboard on a good day. Yes, dinner tonight sucked, and it did so very badly. 

So here I am now, sacrificing more of my eyesight and brain cells to this silicone monstrosity while my stomach struggles to digest even one molecule of the poison that has been so cruelly forced into it. There's nothing worse than being full on disgusting calories, and getting a horrible case of gas because of it. Hm, yeah, you probably didn't want to know that. Oh well. Ciao!

Ancestors, hear my plea, help me not to make a fool of me...

...scarier than the undertaker we are meeting our matchmaker...

Mulan is undoubtedly one of the best Disney movies ever made. I dare say it tops even Aladdin when it comes to the plot and animation- the ladies of Mulan were much more natural and fluid looking than their predecessors. Personally, I like the Disney style of animation portrayed in Fantasia and Peter Pan, with the characters, particularly the women, being much more graceful and natural looking. True, you couldn't exactly fit a delicate touch-me-and-i'll-break megera into Hercules, but a movie that touched back on Disney's animation roots would be a welcome breather from the bolder animations of their latest features. 

And god help us if Atlantis gets a sequel. It shares first place with the three Caballeros as being the WORST Disney movie ever made. The story moved too fast, there was no character development on any of them and a lot of the events were pretty much pointless. The whole movie looks like a junk story a Disney writer made on a whim, and then the animators scrambled to well, animate it. Bad form, Disney, bad form.

I am; however, looking forward to Treasure Planet. I couldn't stand to read Treasure Island, the story bored me. One of my favorite classical books is Wind in the Willows; best damn kid's story ever written. It's one of those stories that just sends you sailing right into it, down Water Rat's stream and onto the grass for a lazy picnic with mole. And of course that fabulous Mister Toad, an almost anti-hero of sorts. Save Toad Hall! 

Hmmm, yeah. A little bit of old school fer ya. 

And I'm done for the eve. Somehow this whole thing turned into a Disney rant. Ah well. I've gotta finish watching Mulan, maybe some Beetlejuice afterwards. I really, really, REALLY want Toon Disney. I'm gonna add that to my Christmas list, Yay!

In case you haven't noticed (which I doubt you have) A spiffy lil' comments page had been added to the bottom of me posts. Wanna argue my stupidiy? Wanna yell at me for ripping on kids and old ladies? Want to support my lunacy? Well then, just click on you have words, obi wan? And let your fingers fly. ^_^ 

In other news...there is no other news. That was all I wanted to say. Though, did anyone see Smallvile last night? Did that Byron guy go Buffy the Vampire slayer on Clark and Pete or what? WAY too much kryptonite in Smallville; it's like in Static Shock when only a few barrels of that chemical exploded, yet somehow half the city somehow evolved into bang babies. >.< I hate cartoon inconsistencies. 

THE GIANTS SUCK! As do the angels, the raiders, the 49er's...behold, I'm dissing all my teams. I used to be an extremely minor fan of the Yankees (God help me if I wasn't...the folks on Staten Island woulda' torn me apart), but now they really need to stop winning. What's the point of playing if the same team always wins? I don't understand sports; it's the computer geek in me, I swear. She just won't let me wrap my head around such violent and childish practices- though I do enjoy a good game of touch basketball. You've never played touch basketball you say? Well, you've never played it with the girls at my school then- to us unless someone hits the floor or gets slapped in the face, you're not playing real basketball. 

I wanna watch Taken on sci-fi. I also gotta catch the dinotopia series from ABC, though the miniseries REALLY disappointed me. No one can do a fantasy miniseries like CBS. Jack and the beanstalk, the 10th kingdom...now THOSE were some great series. 'Specially the 10th kingdom. They haven't shown that one in a few months...I miss it man!

Coffee makes dildos hard while chai tea does cause gaseous bubbles...The run on sentence of my radio station this morning. They're delightfully dirty and terminally insane. They had a guy who wrapped himself (naked, head to toe) in duct tape and got it torn off for a pair of Giants tickets...idiot. 

Mmm, I'm done. I think I'll either go do my homework, watch the other half of my BJ episode or watch Mulan

...Mulan it is then!

Mmmmh. Chicken...

Hm, what's to blog today? Now much, really. My friend has a strange crush on this guy, whom we've dubbed dirty boy. I'm going to write a song to the tune of skater boy for her, and its gonna be called dirty boy. Yes, yes it will. 

Mmmmh, no history homework. That's almost as good as...as...um...I dunno.

Today's blog entry has been brought to you by lack of sleep. Ashlee's waiting for Barry bonds and the giants to hit the damn target so she can get her free tacos. TAAAACOOOOOS! go GIR, go GIR, go go a go GIR!

yes, free tacos from taco bell if the giants hit their floating target. I hate baseball and taco bell, so I don't know why I care. But it's free dang it, and you NEVER pass up free!

Crusty old man trying to get the hookup w/ me...freaky.

Eh, that's all. I've started dabbling in Poser 4 and Vue D' esprit again, so expect some new 3d images in the original section, those of you who visit my main site. I would also like to thank King Kazaa for saving me about 170 bucks worth of P4 characters, clothing, textures and models. Long live the King, baby. 

Today's blog entry has been brought to you by illegal software. It rules baby, yeah! Illegal software And Juno reactor. High energy protons are spilling over into our atmosphere...I love Juno Reactor. Check out their music; it's very trance. ^_^

*Shakes her booty to Lost in Space* Everything is going extremely well...

Senor Potter November 15th man. Yeah baby, yeah! They were talking about J.K. Rowling on the radio this morning; they said she's feeling the pressure from all the psycho fans who want the new book to come out. You can't rush genius, man! There's no time limit you can set on TRUE art, whether it be writing or visual...can you imagine if Michelangelo actually set a time limit on the Cistine Chapel? Well, that might have been good; than I wouldn't have had to sit through three hours of The Agony and the Ecstasy. But it's ok, I'm sure he didn't MEAN to ruin a bunch of sophomore's summer and make their lives miserable...

That's all Ashlee will say for today. I've started speaking in the third person, even when I don't mean to. Isn't that a sign of insanity? Oh well; as my friend would say, it's just something that pops out of my unconscious. ^_^ Ah, we all love Lisa. Ciao!

It's Hamtaro time! No, not really. Just felt like adding that for an extra dose of stupidity. 

You're looking at the world's only person to actually sniffle during G Gundam. Okay, so maybe I'm not the ONLY one, but come on people! He had to kill his brother in order to stop the Dark Gundam! After finally hearing the truth about Kiyogi (spelling) and finding him after all those years he had to let him go. It was SAD people. 

Ya know what, it's just not possible to write a serious entry about Domon losing his big bro when you're watching Spongebob Squarepants. I'll move on now. 

I'm on a Kingdom Hearts kick. I'm determined to go to blockbuster and rent a PS2 so I can play it. At first it was just because it had Genie in it, but now that I've heard all the reviews and read the plot, I desperately want to play. I've already downloaded a bunch of game clips and songs off Kazaa, so I'm eagerly awaiting next Saturday when I can go to blockbuster and rent them both. The again, maybe I'll just wait till Monday and borrow the game from my friend since he beat it already; thing is, I forgot where he lives >.< That's the trouble with having no outdoor social life...

Spicy chicken wings! I'm out of a blogging mood now. Just did this so you people wouldn't think I ya know, died or something. I didn't by the way. So um...yeah. I ordered a tape from the Aladdin series off Amazon.com, but since today's a holiday I'm going to have wait two extra days. STUPID POSTAL SERVICE! They're as bad as the dock workers that are on strike- yeah, I know I have no sympathy for the troubles of mankind. Feel free to spit and jeer at me when I'm a bum waving around my coffee cup and reeking up the whole street corner. On a different note, I'm not fond of old people. Old people and small children; opposite sides of the age spectrum and equally annoying. Yes, I'm cruel and unfeeling; we established that three sentences ago. Feel free to hate me everyone. Ciao.
