What if I bought you socks that say "I care"...does that count?

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it counts..and I'll laugh and laugh.
(Chances are you'd write 'em in glitter-paint, too.)

[spooble.livejournal.com]

Oh my.

Not only are you wonderful, you're only a month younger than I am. Weird! :)

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

That's right, you just had a birthday!!! (I missed it since I usually don't check in much on the weekends.) Happy belated birthday, mister!!

I wuz born on the same day as Elvis and David Bowie...Unhhhhhhuuuuuuuh..*Hip waggle*

[spooble.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

I was born on the day John Lennon was shot...10 years in advance...but still...

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

That's a traumatic birthday memory..good heavens!!!

(((((Happy Birthday hug))))))69.

[spooble.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the hug, you'll get one soon... :)

[redthread.livejournal.com]

I've got dibs on giving you the A large Orbital Mind-Control Laser with a compass in the stock and a thing what tells time..., but only if you'll share the Wayne mansion and Batmobile.

[paradoxicalsoul.livejournal.com]

we don't have ponies, but we do have horses... :)

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

You DO?!?!?! Cooooool!!! What's it like?!?!?!

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

I think I can do that!!!
*Cues Batman music*

[paradoxicalsoul.livejournal.com]

We have 9 horses, 8 of which are here, one is at a trainer's...

and what's it like? well, that depends a lot on who you ask... I'm not horse crazy like my mom and my daughter so I don't find them worth it, but they do... *shrug* From my perspective, they are nice to have around when *I* want them... other than that, I'd prefer someone else take care of them... I would have horses if I were rich where I could hire someone to deal with them... otherwise, I wouldn't have 'em...

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

They do seem a lot of work...but those huge dark eyes and pettable mane are just so irrisistable...

[paradoxicalsoul.livejournal.com]

you can come hang here... we have some particularly beautiful horses, if I do say so myself...

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

Mmmmm...horses...:)

[paradoxicalsoul.livejournal.com]

they are weird and interesting critters, actually... if you wanna know stuff about 'em, ask me... I could tell you all kinds of trivia shit... I can tell what a typical day is like when you have them... etc etc etc...

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

OOh, do tell me!!! What is it like to live with horses?

*aims orbital mind control*

Michelle, the orbital mind control laser *is* yours. Remember?

[paradoxicalsoul.livejournal.com]

Well, in some ways they are like children... they take away your spontenaity... you wanna go to a party? You gotta make sure the horses are fed first before you go... you wanna sleep over at a friend's house? You gotta get home early in the morning or arrange to have someone feed in the morning for you...

Right now it's winter and we have 8 horses here... my mom spends about 2 hours twice a day feeding, cleaning stalls, and watering the horses... now, it obviously doesn't take that long when you have fewer horses, so don't get the impression that it's always THAT much work, but still, to feed, clean a stall and water, for each horse it takes about 15 to 20 minutes and you need to do it twice a day.

Did you know that horses can't throw up?

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

I had no idea...(What happens if they eat something bad for them?)

It kind of sounds like taking care of a really big dog..lots of maintenance, like having a kid.

[paradoxicalsoul.livejournal.com]

it is sorta like taking care of a kid or a dog... *nods*

and if they eat something that's bad for them, it either has to pass on through or they will die... :/ they aren't very evolved animals, evelutionarily speaking... they have some way cool things about them though... such as you can totally dope up a horse by pinching it's upper lip... I wish that was all I had to do to get high!! lol

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

I thought I shared it with Cyn, so it's not really mine...
*Orbital mind-control laser hits right between the eyes*

Ooooh...I have my own orbital mind-control laser...coooooool....and I must send Freekee alllllll my money....*goggle*

Yay, V!!!

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

*goop goop goop goop goopitty goop goop!!!*

Shall I send it to your house or work or hang from your window screen with the bow in my teeth screaming "leeeet me iiiiin!!!" *snicker*

Re:

I know if you keep your palm flat they can't bite your hand...and they like grape-flavored nail polish. *grin*

a present for ME!?!?
eep
*blush*
Well, I sould love to see you, but I have this crazy li'l show happening and I'm going out of town and stuff.
If you want you can send it to my workplace (I know you have the address you pizza-sending tagger - DAMN! That reminds me... I'm still IT aren't I?).

Let me look and see if I have a night free for some SUSHI sometime too... Sushi sushi sushi *GOOP*!


You're my favorite Mausie.
~Virginia, Thanking you in advance.

[paradoxicalsoul.livejournal.com]

hehe... don't know about the nail polish but it's true about the flat palm... here's a couple more interesting little tidbits... horses are monocular... meaning they only see through one eye at a time... and they can't see in front of them well at all, nothing up close well... for them to be able to see something well, it needs to be about 4 to 5 feet away... so when you see the horses jumping, the horse can't see the jump at the time they need to jump at all... also, they see in shades of green... sorta like black in white only in shades of green... so fresh grass is WAY greener than dead grass, etc...

Re: VA:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

Not a problem, the sending...
(I know you're busy enough for 3 Virginias...poor sweet baby.((((((((Sqa-weeeeeze))))))))

Oh yeah..you are still ummmm....it. Heh.
Meh..meh heh heh...Meh heh heh HOO HAHAHAHAAA!!!! Who's it, bebeh?!?!?;)


And any night you wish to sushi is a good night for me:) (You can bring the Billster if he'd like to come too, or we can have Chatty Grrl's Night. Woot!

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

I didn't know about the green...wow, that's really cool! Imagine a world of nothing but greens... And it gives me new respect for horse trainers that they can train one to jump where they can't really see.

I know a lot of the racing horses are supposed to be pretty inbred and mean...what's the horse population like these days?

[paradoxicalsoul.livejournal.com]

depends on the breed, I suspect... I don't know much specificly about the thoroughbreds (race horses)... we have Morgan horses... Morgans are the first and only truly American breed of horses... only a bit over 100 years old... Morgans are bred to be a good all around general horse, able to do some of the same things as "work" horses and yet have the refinement of a "lady's" or "gentleman's" horse...

You can go Here to see the pictures I took at The Grand National and World Championship Morgan Horse Show in Oklahoma City in October... :)

[redthread.livejournal.com]

COOL!!

And I know you don't want socks, but how about fun socks? And some floaty pens? :D

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

Well, fun socks are the best!! and I love floaty pens!!!

Re:

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

Wow....beautiful!!!!
And such a glossy color!!!:)

[paradoxicalsoul.livejournal.com]

Trust me, they are WAY prettier in person!!! hehe :) That was the creme-de-la-creme and sometimes there were literally million dollar horses in the ring... it was quite the experience, let me tell you... :)
