Happy Valentine's Day!!

 

Soooo… It’s Valentine’s Day again. Now I’ve never had a problem with V-day really. However what does drive me crazy is how obsessed other people get about this. Mainly chicks. (No offense to any friends that this may apply to.) I mean COME ON! Are you really going to dwell on the fact that you don’t have a boyfriend on this one day a year? That you’re not getting flowers or candy or some crap? Be depressed and generally no fun to be around? GET OVER IT! Have a good time being single and living it up, because from what I hear…being single is more fun anyways. 



I am spending my V-day evening at the barn taking care of horses. They are all my Valentines!

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY EVERYONE!!! LOVE TO ALL!!

The Host…turned into a MOVIE!!!!

So I learned from Confessions of TwiCrack Addicts this morning that they have started auditions for the movie version of ‘The Host’!!!! First just let me say…OHMYGOD!!! OHMYGOD!!! OHMYGOOOOOD!!!!

Now then. I heard about someone maybe making this book into a movie like 1.5 years ago or something. I wasn’t sure if it would actually happen so I just pretty much hoped it would come to pass. It is so exciting that they are actually going to do this! I really hope they make it a FANTASTIC movie. No offense but Twilight isn’t that great or a movie series. Not that I don’t LOVE it anyway despite the cheese factor. 

The Host is one of my favorite books also so here’s who I would like to see possibly play the roles of my favs. I am leaving out Jamie because I don’t know any kid actors and everyone I thought I knew isn’t a child anymore. All the kid actors I remember are now like 19 – 22. EEEESH! GAD!!


Melanie Stryder: Odette Yustman

Wanda:  Anna Sophia Robb

Ian O'Shea (love of my life):  Jared Padalecki

Jared Howe:  Henry Cavil or Jenson Ackles (just remember he's supossed to be older than Mel & Ian)

Uncle Jeb:  Sam Elliot (oh please I hope he would do it!)

So this is my take on things...I couldn't think of a Kyle.  Or really anyone else, but I've had these people in my mind for a really loooong time.  hahahaha!  OH I CAN'T WAIT!!!

To breed or not to breed...THAT is the question!

Let me first just say that I have been back & forth on this subject since...oh I don't know.  Probably once I really fell in love with my mare Honey.  So coming up on 7 years now in May. 

In May 2008 my horse started going on & off lame so I gave her the rest of our Drill season off.  After we were done she was still off & on but then I got a second horse for Christmas that year & she just kinda fell on the back burner.  Finally I had a vet out to do x-rays on her & she was diagnosed with Navicular syndrome.  I have tried to do my best with her since then but she once again kinda got put on hold when the other mare (Scooter) started getting very ill.  Eventually I had to put that horse down due to intestinal cancer.  Then I got Honey back on track with her meds & got a much better shoer.

Well now about a month back I had a different vet come & take a look at her because I thought she might have done something to a tendon in her leg.  The vet said she looked great but that Honey would always be that way now that she is navicular.  She told me I probably had another 2-3 years of riding left with her then after that I would have to start thinking about what I wanted to do with her.  The vet was really great and she gave me a medicine regimen for Honey & just said she'll have good days & bad.  So this diagnosis is what finally made my decision for me.  Yes...a month later.

In case you don't know me...I am obsessed with my horse.  I got her at an auction in Yelm and over the year after I got her we bonded and I haven't loved any horse more.  So I have decided to get a baby from her.  (Hopefully another mare).  I have talked to some friends about it who have bred their horses and a couple of them knew of mutual friends that had Stallions.  So I finally found one that I like and Hopefully I will get her bred this year!  It won't be in the spring which is I think normally when people do this but, oh well.    I am so excited now!  Also really scared because I can't help myself. 

I can't wait to get started with this!  Now I just need to save up money for all the vet bills I'll be accumilating.  At least this time it will be for a new life and not ending one.  :-) 

I can't believe it!! Only...I can. Kinda. Lover Unleashed!!!

We only have to wait for 53 more days!!!  OMG!!!  SQUEEEEEEEE!!!  I know last year I don't think I blogged at all but I remember anticipating Lover Mine.  I really hope this one is GREAT!  The last two she's put out haven't been exactly what I had hoped for.  They were still really good, just not as good as I wanted them to be.  Especially John's book 'Lover Mine'.  Oh well.  I still love her books & it just goes to show how good of an author she really is.  I get so attached to these characters and want their stories to be so great!  It's no wonder I am always a bit sad when I finish the book.  Not to mention I know I have to wait for anther WHOLE YEAR!!! 

So yeah...here we go girls.  53 days & counting. 

Slow going...

God Lord!!!  This Robert Pattinson / anything Twilight drought is killing me!!! Hopefully we'll be seeing some new leaks again soon!

Twitarded Pilgrimage to Fooooorks 2010!

Holy Moly! Talk about procrastination! Finally getting this post all typed out…though it’s been written up on notebook paper since a week after ‘Twitarded goes to Fooooorks 2010!!!’. Ah well. I’m obviously never going to change my procrastinating ways. LOL! So here it goes…4-5 months later.

So this past weekend (note: Sept/Oct 2010) myself, Patches, JakeBlacksH00R, and Jessica went to Forks & La Push. For JB’sH00R & I it was our 3rd time there together & for Patches the first. At least since the Twilight movies. We all had been SQUEEING over this trip for a month & finally the time was here!

(Here’s a little look at my obsessive love for the Twitarded Blog. It all started when Patches emailed me at work “Have you ever read this blog Twitarded?” So I checked it out & at the time I think there were probably about 20 posts. I then proceeded to piss my pants from laughing so hard. I HAD TO SHARE IT WITH ALL MY OTHER FRIENDS!)

Fast forward to this trip to Foooorks!! Patches & I have a chance to meet JJ & STY!!! SUPER MOTHER EFFING SQUEEEEE!!!! I mean I wasn’t excited or anything. (Let the fan-girl craziness commence.) I booked us a hotel room & signed everyone up for Saturday night drinking festivities.

We all rode out there together Saturday & praise Mother Nature we had clear skies & warmer weather than when I was there in JULY!! We had a great time screwing around on the beach and generally just making a spectacle of ourselves (what with all the pieces of driftwood that somehow all resembled “sparkle peen”.
When we all finally pulled ourselves together & went back to the Forks Motel I noticed a large quantity of twilight posters on doors. WE HAD ARRIVED!! I think all of the ‘Twitarded Legion’ was staying at the motel. So we went to grab dinner & to the grocery store for some pre-funk boozing. I think when we finally got ourselves down to ‘The Dungeon’ and saw all the ladies, we were just slightly in awe. I remember looking at everyone’s name tags and thinking “OH! There’s VitaminR!” However, for Patches & I the biggest Squeeeee was when we finally got to meet Jenny Jerkface & Snarkier Than You. Let me just say that these are two FANTASTIC ladies. We took pictures like teenaged fan girls and both got drunk and had loads of FUN.

Now we are starting to get pumped up for ‘Twitarded goes to Fooooorks 2011’. Now that we know what to expect everyone better watch out! It’s going to be a grand time!

W-O-W!!!!!!

It's been over a year since I have blogged. About anything! BOY OH BOY! I think I'll start to try this again. :-)
