I left my GPS in the truck last night. This morning my roommate woke me up to tell me that the passenger window in my truck was smashed.

I called my boss, who told me I have to come in work today. Because there is NO!POSSIBLE!WAY! that I could take the day, or part of the day to take my truck in to get the window fixed. WTF? I have about 2 ( Read more... )

I got home to a note from the dog walker. He was amazed at how much energy she has. Apparently most dogs start slowing down after 20 minutes, but Peanut just kept trucking ( Read more... )

Dear Mr. Sandman,

You don't have to bring me a dream. You don't have to bring me a man at all. I would just appreciate a visit tonight so I can get some rest.

No Love,
Me

I had the day to myself today. It doesn't happen very often on a Saturday. Usually I'm running out to Montgomery County to see Lieke, but Julio and Jessica went to a show this weekend. One of the client horses, a Dutch WB mare qualified for Devon, so they are trying to get the stallion Ivan qualified as well ( Read more... )

I changed my default language on Facebook to English (Pirate) and have been laughing all night. I am talking to a guy from High School about dog walking services for when I get the puppy. I giggled like a drunken fool when I saw this: regaarrdin': Hi as the message title ( Read more... )

This afternoon was fun! It didn't start off so wonderful, though. In the cross ties Linus was being a twit and would not stop pawing. At one point I went to get something out of my grooming kit and as I walked in front of him he got me in the leg, just above the knee. I've got a lovely welt from his tiny little hoof now. Another boarder was ( Read more... )

You may have heard me bitch about Linus and the scary, scary streams that he will not cross. Sure, he'll jump in a lake, but for 8 years we've battled about the streams. It never mattered if it was a raging river or a tiny trickle of a stream, he'd always balk, spin circles, run off in the other direction, run over his trail companions and even ( Read more... )

First off, Julio was interviewed for a magazine article. I'm going to see Lieke tomorrow and hopefully ride her. It's been about 6 months since I've been on her back; I miss it ( Read more... )

Today I actually rode Linus! My buddy P wanted to ride, and Linus is at a good weight, so we met up at the barn. I had Linus groomed before she got there, and after we talked about ordering hay, checked out a sample bale she got and just generally piddled around for a while, we hopped on. I took Linus into the ring to loosen him up a bit while ( Read more... )

The suspicion is food poisoning from the crabcake I had for dinner on Monday. I know where not to order the crabcakes from now on ( Read more... )
