Not as bad as you think I am.

I was a professional spectator on Friday and everybody was really awesome. The footing looked really sloppy and was probably pretty intimidating, especially in the morning, but as usual all you TOC girls were very impressive.

:clap: :clap: :clap:

By the way, Rachel, did Atti step on you again before the jog on Saturday? :innocent:
On Friday I heard a banshee shriek and looked across the ring to see RHowell attempting to shove Atti's huge oblivious self off of her boot. RHowell must never be turned out without bell and splint boots, she hurts herself playing. ;)

Nope, he only steps on me when he has to wait to jog at the back of the class, to punish me for pulling and kicking, and all the other bad stuff I do to get in his otherwise perfect way. He didn't like jogging 10th out of 10 :P JM's horse doesn't like jogging in the back either--it's pretty funny. And I was SOOOOO Lame in that jog I don't think the judge would have noticed any horse limping...i would have made any horse look good! To top it all off, when we got back to the hotel and I was polishing my boots, a pistachio nut shell fell out of one of them from under the footbed--apparently I'm not the princess and the pea :lol:

Anyone know how JLo is doing after that awful tumble out of the grandstand Thurs. night? I know she wasn't able to show but it saddens me that she sought alcohol as the answer. I've never thought that alcohol and horse shows were a good combination. Please join me for a moment of silence on her behalf. :hug:

that's so kind of you PrayerList. I was glad to see you off your bench seat. I never knew the USEF would suspend people for riding with a camelbak in the ring. don't they know your blood has been replaced by box wine?

Seriously, grandstand lady lives 4 houses down from me. I know her son. He has a bit of a drug problem, and she knows. Mind you, she's a pediatrician and gives advice to people on how to raise their children. You should have HEARD the resulting phone message. :o Sistah can cuss better than any sailor or construction worker or the prayer list, you name it. She followed around mr. trainer for about 20 minutes on thursday giving him a thumbs up. It was not until she yelled "YOU GO GIRL" at him in the ring that he recognized who she was...

I have mostly blocked it out of my memory, but she had curly gray hair. A quick google of her name came up with:

Daughter's graduation- her two daughters used to ride with Chris and she got all indignant when I hadn't heard of them. She was staying at Keswick hall upt he street and I guess she just decided to stop by and entertain everyone :P

Yeah, 90 horses give or take a few. I think 80 stalls in the 3 main barns, plus the cowboy's garage barn thing and the pasture board horses out back who I did not know existed wil I had been there a year. That was a surprise. I was looking for the old schoolie for my sister to have a pony rideand found a field full of horses I had NEVER seen before. Cue twilight zone theme song.

Are you talking about Katie's mom?
Wow I haven't seen her in FOREVER! They rode at BRM way before your time. Back when me and Katie were on ponies.


Thats crazy!

Yup, Katie's mom. Ya'll know Michelle is too busy getting her most favorite client (Lego) ready to go in the ring to drink that much. :one: Her husband is way too cute- I came in for night check around 10:30 and he is setting up a folding chair to keep her company all night. I am having to plan my next move now. I'm not sure that Upperville (no schooling with chris, no schooling in the ring) is such a great idea given our unexpected lateral movements this weekend, one of which was directly into A.Loh who was a good sport. I was thinking maybe the Loudoun Benefit show, but then someone said "it is the worst show I have ever attended". So who knows....maybe just hanging out until Deep Run.
