I managed to get some shots of the squirrels that pester my plants. I figure I'd share them... the little *bleeeeep*s are cute, even if they do infuriate me!

Well, I walked into the shop at work today... to see a three-'story' cage with a Chinchilla inside. Slightly baffled, I asked my coworker what was up with that.
"Oh, it's [our boss] John's. It's free! . . .

I have never been so terrified as I was, sitting in the stands next to the other two students that were bidding on their horses. I was shaking uncontrollably. I was so scared that someone else would bid, . . .

This spring is bringing some exciting changes. One of 'em is happening this week-- I'm moving Sarge to a different barn.

While down with my family on Long Beach Island, NJ, we discovered this beetle on my neice's hat. It flew off but landed on some nearby plants, and I managed to take some good shots of it. (And some of . . .

So, yesterday we moved Sarge and two of his friends. It went really well! I skipped two classes to do so (I can make up the work, and I wasn't going to miss being there) and met Kat (who, with her . . .

So, lately I'd been a little down about riding. Not that I didn't still love it, but I just wasn't sure what I wanted to do-- mainly concerning showing. I'd been showing Snickers. Now, Snickers is one . . .

There were a whole lot of miniature horses at BreyerFest, and quite a sight they were... I figured I would share some of the photos I took of them!
They came in all different colors and sizes...

It was an early morning. Too early, for me, but that's to be expected on a horse show day. I woke my mom, and we readied ourselves. Breeches, boots, show shirt... make sure not to forget the helmet, gloves, . . .

And now, part two!
The Lipizzaner breed is an only one, and each horse can be traced back to one of six stallions: Pluto, Conversano, Maestoso, Favory, Neopolitano, or Siglavy. A lot of the horses . . .

Around this time, in particular, everyone is busy buying gifts and planning out presents and parties and festivities. For some of us, cash is tighter than the rest of the year, but it's also a time of . . .

On Saturday, a group of people from the barn were planning on bringing their horses to Island Beach State Park in NJ for some trail riding along the beach. I decided that it would be good to bring Sarge, . . .

Proof that animals really do run my life...
Starring Tuxey, the Barn Cat.
It started out when I went to sit in my car and eat my granola bar. Tuxey followed me over, and climbed right . . .

I went to Medieval Times tonight... it was a great time!
The tickets were free through a school club, and because we couldn't get enough people from the school to go, my best friend from up north . . .

So, on the 16th, I had another show with Atticus, the horse I've been riding a lot lately. We'd shown the week before, as well, and gotten Grand Champion , but I'll admit it was raining for that show, . . .

Months ago, my friend got us tickets to go see the Lipizzaner stallions perform in Trenton, NJ. She'd said, at the time, that they were good seats. I figured we'd be near the front.

There are moments where life is utterly perfect.
I walked into the barn tonight to turn lights off. Most of the horses were laying down in their stalls, sleeping. Sergeant Pepper woke up, and saw . . .
