some days, I wonder.
So yesterday's ride, while awesome for other reasons, contained this discussion....
Denali: OMG WHAT IS THAT
Me: eh, what? where?
*glances at the manure pile we ride by EVERY DAY on the side of the arena*
Denali: THERE! LOOK!
Me: um, the fat little robin on the top of the pile? eh?
Denali: IT'S A VELOCIRAPTOR!
Me: ....
Denali: AHHH! IT MOVED!
Me: darling, it's a WET BIRD drying itself out in the sun by spreading it's wings and holding them aloft
Denali: RUN!
Me: *turns horse about* You ARE a dork.
She rarely takes issue with ANYTHING any more, I shouldn't complain, but this is essentially the discussion I had in my brain with her (including, yes, the velociraptor wording, because it DID look freakish. at less than 1 lb sized :P)
