(no subject)
I don't actually have much to post about.
I'm thinking I'm going to duct tape the shit out of Sophie tonight and try and make it to the barn this week to see how well that holds. And if it's not bad I'll just drive home.
Mom gave me shit for not asking Kevin for help, which I joked about with Kevin, seeing as if the idea for the car doesn't work, I'll just buy a bus ticket to Yorkton and meet somebody there. And Kevin was like well... I can drive you to Yorkton, and meet up with you guys on Sunday. That's no big deal.
So, that erupted into a fountain of no. My problem. I will fix. I'm not going to make the guy drive 3+ hours so I can go to a stupid fair. I know I still have a long way to go in this, behaving properly in a relationship, but that just seems like too much of a stretch/too much to ask of someone. I mean, I like driving with him. Mostly because he sings while he drives, and even if he's not the best singer, I just really enjoy listening to his voice.
I'm hoping I can venture my way out to the barn either tonight, tomorrow, or Thursday. It's been over a week and I'm going through some serious withdrawal. Want. I've had a couple people offer to come out to the barn with me, but I just can't make myself take the help. Especially with what happened to Marc. Plus, I know barn time is me riding around while whoever comes has to just sit there and watch, and that just feels like a shitty thing to do. I can't even offer up a horse to ride, since Gail is a little particular about that, which I totally don't blame her. She puts thousands of dollars into the training of her animals. And with Fire... well, he's still got a ways to go, so unless I can be a safety net, I'm reluctant to put people on him as well. Even more so if people have a little bit of riding experience, since I don't want him to get his cues mixed up.
But, fingers crossed that operation duct tape pans out. I'll look like a total hick/redneck, and I don't even care.
I won't go into detail about last night, but srsly. That's probably one of the most successful pizzas I've ever made. Oh god. So good.
And the look on Kevin's face when he opened the door was *pretty* priceless. When he realized just how much I had planned ahead, he was like a kid in the candy store. I think he wanted to skip the pizza part entirely.
Men.
Still anxious for Friday. But also, short week, because I took Friday off :D Yay.
