(no subject)
I did not succeed in being normal last night and having a good time out. I, instead, had a major panic attack after calling Zach and getting his voicemail twice. Chelsea and I ended up coming back to my apartment (I'm so glad she wasn't upset with me) and he was here....taking a nap. God, I'm so fucking ridiculous! :(
Chels and I drank a whole lot of wine and a couple of beers, and pretty much smoked cigarettes outside all night. I don't really remember coming inside to go to bed and I definitely don't remember Zach coming home last night, but I woke up this morning in the same clothes I wore last night and he was asleep beside me.
Today he's working and it's my first day cleaning stalls at the barn. I was considering going to Equine Affair after, but I don't think I'm going to. There is only one seminar today that is of interest to me - Jane Savoie on suppling exercises for the dressage horse. Rebel's not a dressage horse, but suppling exercises are very beneficial to him, so that would be interesting. However, I don't think I want to spend the money on parking and admission, because really all I'm going to do is spend more money at the trade show....and I really shouldn't do that, especially since I spent $50 on feed, a couple new brushes, and some Show Sheen at Tractor Supply the other day. I want a new saddle pad, but I don't NEED a new saddle pad. I do need new half chaps though since one of mine seems to have vanished from the face of the earth.... o_O .... But I have big calves and have to order a larger size, which I've had difficulty finding in stores and at Equine Affair in the past. I'll probably just order another pair of Ovations somewhere online. And I wanted to get SMBs for Rebel, but again....I'll just order those online. Probably will be able to find a better deal than at EA - sometimes you find good deals on stuff, but not always. If you're getting a bunch of supplements and wormer, then yeah....you can get some real steals. But as for everything else, I haven't seen too much of a difference in price at EA and other places the rest of the year. I think people get excited over the convenience of it more than anything.
Well, shit. I kind of want to go, but if I'm going to make the most of it, I need to leave to clean stalls like NOW so that I can be done by 10ish. Chelsea's still here asleep on the couch and I'll feel bad if I wake her up and basically kick her out. Damnit....
