woot. weekends totally rock my socks off.
really.
ok, so I was out at the barn today, (which was FREEZING btw, all I had was a pair of CRAPPY riding gloves, couldn't feel my fingers), and was excersizing Brownie. and OMG-he was CLIPPED, it was amazing I tell you, the horse was WHITE, not light brown, WHITE, he was actually pretty! anyway, since he was clipped, he was high spirited because (obviously) it was cold out, and horses for some reason, have more energy and act up when it's cold outside.
so Brownie and I are doing a jump line, and he's being silly and kicking after the jump a bit, and on his lead changes-and shaking his head, basically just causing trouble. which is amazing, because Brownie is usually DEAD quiet. ok not dead, but pretty calm.
and who shows up, but Lisa. gr. APPARENTLY she "would like to start riding lessons" as she's standing there, eyes the arena dust in designer UGG's (honestly, you don't waer 200$ UGG's to a BARN!) looking disgusted with the dust. Her sister was there too-she's cool though. we like the sister .
anyway, so their mom gets all snobby about their expieriance and Maureen starts chewing them out. she wanted to know their expieriance and where they used to ride. Lisa's sister claimed to have ridden "off the track" thoroghbreds at Sid Griffiths. to which Maureen pointed out that Sid rode his horses SIX times a day and that those were lesson horses and weren't very spirited. She went through the same thing with lisa, who said that she had ridden some. HA!
at this point Maureen pointed out that HER horses were competeive, and much more spirited than sids, and that they were only ridden about once a week. Also, the said that brownie was THE calmest horse here. However, at the point, Brownie thought that durring that praticular run of the line, he wanted to get silyl with the lead change and kick a bit.
it was PERFECT! the look nlisa's face was priceless...serisously. and it was all the better because Brownie was clipped and pretty and LOOKED like a show horse.
I love it when snobs like her get it rubbed in their face....
yeah, other than that my weekend was rather boring.
