I WANT MY XBOX

So for the past ever I have wanted an xbox 360. Is that raelly so much to ask?
Drew is over right now with his xbox, and it's just making me want one even more.
I'm typing this blog while watching the television screen while Fable II is playing.

Now really, an xbox is what I have hinted at for the longest time. And my mom is still being difficult about it.
You already have a playstation, so you can't have an xbox.
The playstation is outdated, and I want to trade it in! Oi vey!

Look at how much fun I have playing xbox!I had my lovely assistant Drew hold up the controller for me.
Now, come on. I've been a good kid! I got all of my schoolwork done, I didn't sneak out or do drugs. I even dress in a sensible fashion.
Why can't I get a dirty rotten xbox?!

Shelby came over last night. We went to see Twilight again. It was really awesome, I loved it. We stayed until the end of the credits.

Thank you everyone that has come from blog stalkers. I swear to you, my blog is usually updated more regularly! I'll make sure of it from now on!

Oh, and before I forget, here's two new pictures of me and shelby!

Chiropractor, Mean Mom, and BSU

I went back to the chiropractor today. It was nice, until I got back in the car and realized my shoulder was on fire and my head was splitting.
I don't think he did anything wrong. I think he may have moved something that had been stuck for a while, and now I'm feeling the repercussions.

So I'm laying in bed, starving, and my mom won't fix me anything to eat. "I'm not your maid."
That'll come back to bite her in the ass at some point. "Lee, can you grab this for me?" "I'm not your maid."
Of course that'll turn around and bite me in the ass, but whatdya gonna do?

I got an email today from Blog Stalkers Unite saying that I'm going to be the next featured blog. I jumped the gun and linked to the page already, but to be honest I'm so lazy that if I didn't do it now, I'd probably never get around to it. Don't get me wrong, it's important. But I'm a teenager, and lazy is what we do best.

Tomorrow I'm doing one of two things. Going to see Twilight again, or going to Opportunity Village.
Opportunity Village is a charity that raises money for the mentally disabled and other afflicted or incapacitated by certain disorders.
Every year they hold a christmas event called the "Magical Forest". It's open all through December, and it's so beautiful and fun. The whole place is decorated with Christmas themed decorations and other things. They even have a mini train that you can ride that runs you through the whole event area in a tour.
Of course, Shelby is coming with us. And her favorite thing? "Holy crap THEIR FUNNEL CAKE IS AMAZING."
Yep, she goes for the funnel cake. But it is amazing.

Here's a link to the event site:

Hopefully everyone else is doing something charitable for the holidays. It's always nice to give!

My New Look

To be honest, I've always been one to reinvent myself every few months. Or every month. Or once a week.
Shut up I'm not indecisive.
Anyway, I think I've finally landed on something that I truly enjoy.
Presenting, Rosie the Riveter and similar late 40s fashion... modernized for comfort and because I didn't have the high jeans I wanted.I like it. I was never really used to being bold and wearing red lips, but I've finally come out of my shell. And let me tell you, it gets me noticed. Whether good or bad, I don't care. I feel comfortable and happy in my old-fashioned look.

My New God

His name is Dr. Gerber.
And he is my chiropractor.
I've always had horrible joint problems. My shoulder burns a lot when I sit at the computer, and it's hard for me to be comfortable with my body because I slouch.
I'd never been to a chiropractor before, and I'm SO GLAD that I did.

He was practically freaking out when he touched my shoulders because they were so tense, and said "Wow, I expected you to be the easy one and your mom to be the problem. It's the opposite."
My mom can bend down farther than me. How sad is that?
When he laid me down on the table, he warned me that he would have to snap and crackle my back. To be honest, I expected this. In fact, I was excited about it.
He did some basic dexterity tests and such, explained that my body is completely effed up for a 16 year old, and went from there.
So I laid on the table on my stomach, and he felt up my spine to check my bones, and once again was just aghast with how horrible my back and shoulders are. (And my knees are messed up too.)

He first started with my back. He folded me up, leaned over me and CRACK. It felt SO GOOD.
He did it in a couple more places, but that's where the least of my trouble is. Then he went back to my crazy tense shoulders and neck. He goes "Okay, this will probably be loud since it's right by your ear." and so he moved my neck into position and was just about to apply the pressure when I hear CRACK. He goes "Jeese, I didn't even crack that! It was so tight it cracked itself just by me moving it!" That's right. My neck is so tense, the doctor didn't even do it yet and it cracked.
And then he did apply the pressure, and it cracked some more.
Did the same to the other side of my neck, cracked some other parts, and then I was done for the time being.
He takes me into a back room and has me lay on a table that has a dent in it, where it's just fabric over the hole. And then he turned it on.
I nearly died and went to heaven. It has a function where something inside of the table does a "wave" and waves up and down your back to realign your spine. I could've laid there all day.

Then he adjusted my mom, and when she went to the table he noticed that I was still rubbing my shoulder.
He goes "Is that still hurting you? Here, let me see if I can help that." So he took me back into the room and felt around and said that it was my rib. My rib hurting my shoulder? Imagine that.
He tried to crack me while I was on my stomach, but it wouldn't go. So he flipped me over and pressed and CRAAAAACK.
And then, all of the pressure, burning, and pain was gone. My shoulder was perfect. For the time being at least. He said this is the first in a long line of necessary appointments, which doesn't surprise me.

So today was a good day. I never realized my back could crack in so many places. And he said he can make my migraines go away. And I totally trust him. Why? Because he touched a spot on my neck and I realized that it hurt REALLY BAD just to have it touched. I didn't say anything and he goes "And there's the spot causing your headaches." So, I think he can really help me.

I love Dr. Gerber because he takes the time to explain things so that you understand. He saw me looking at my mom's xrays and said "Hey, I noticed you were looking at the xrays. Anything you want me to explain?" Most doctors don't want to take time with you, so I thought that was great. And he just has very kind eyes, and a lot of humor.

Hopefully with future visits (I'm going back on Friday, woo!) I can get a better posture and just all around feel better.
Until then, I long for the amazing feeling that follows the CRACK.

Here's the electric table they put me on that felt AMAZING.
TABLE!

Me and Shelby - Music Video Stars

Shelby and I decided to create a music video today. This is what we created:

...

Okay. I'm going to kick someone in the face.
Apparently it's messed up somehow, even though it's working fine on my computer.
So, I'll upload it to youtube or something.


If it doesn't load...
I'll be extremely angry. It should be loading. It was earlier.

Shelby kept forgetting the words, but I got tired of reshooting so that's just too diddlydarn bad for her.

I think I'm obsessed... Somebody help me.

I finished all of my schoolwork today.
So what have I been doing?

Reading Twilight.
For the fourth time.

It's kind of funny actually. When I finally decided to free myself from the grasp that Twilight holds me under, I popped in the movie Penelope completely forgetting the fact that at the very beginning is a Twilight preview. So I was sitting there going "La-de-da break from Twilight" and then BAM Twilight logo.
I went into the fetal position. I officially overdosed on Twilight.
I really didn't think it was possible. I've been hiding the track marks (paper cuts) from everyone. They've been telling me "You need help, find something else!" But ever since Twilight, nothing holds my interest.
Any book that I pick up is not as exciting. Not as riveting.
Any movie I watch doesn't hold that same sort of "OMG I CAN'T LOOK AWAY FROM THE SCREEN. HOLY CRAP I HAVE TO PEE BUT I'M NOT GETTING UP BECAUSE I'LL MISS SOMETHING." feeling.

Don't get me wrong, Twilight wasn't the most amazing movie I've ever seen, but it holds me because I've read the book.
And the book isn't the best book ever written, but the story is so sweet that I love it.
In other news, my mom divulged something to me that she shouldn't have. But I've been good. I mentioned that I love this website with vintage clothes called ModCloth and she goes "Don't you dare go snooping around in my email."
So, in other words, she bought me something from Modcloth for christmas, and I'm guessing the receipt for it is in her email.
Take this as a lesson, mothers. When you have teenagers, don't let them know flat out where the list of things you got them for Christmas is. Because if they don't have willpower like I do, they will look. And it will ruin Christmas for them because teenagers don't have willpower.

The only reason I'm blogging is because for whatever reason I fixed myself a cup of coffee and am wired up.
I took pictures.Anyway, I think I should go do something else with my time. Like comment everyone's blogs that I've so wrongfully neglected. Have a good... whatever time you read this at! Day/night/morning/evening/etc.!

I was bored so...

I did some stuff that wasn't studying. SHHH DON'T TELL ON ME.
Anyway, I've transitioned from playing World of Warcraft to Warcraft III.
Yes, there's a difference.

Anyway, me and my ex have started working on creating a map/game together. So I worked on that for some of the day. I'm the decorator, he's the hardcore coder. (My dainty girliness can't comprehend such things as "triggers" and "binary". I draw the line at HTML.)

But while he was working on a level and I was sitting here reading Twilight again, my friend Angela said she was thinking about getting a Christmas layout for her blog. I made hers, which is the one she's using (her screen is smaller than mine. it's odd, so her layout fits differently on both screens). Anyway, I decided to make myself a new layout too. Whatdya think?

My mom and I started Atkins a couple days ago. Let me tell you... I'm failing miserably.
You're allowed to have 20 carbs daily.
I had 70 today.
That's not TOO much over, right? Okay fine, I know I destroyed 3 and a half days worth of allowance with a pepsi, BUT I WAS THIRSTY.
I'll take some pictures tomorrow of random things, but for now I'm tired and think I'll go get some much needed sleep. Hope the rest of your day/night is great!

edit: I just realized I say "anyway" a lot.
Anyway, goodnight!
haha, kidding. It was a joke! I swear!
