Okay, so seeing as I havn’t been on here for awhile, I figured a good occasion to write about is that I aquired a new dog last Thur. night.  See it all started at work, there was a dog running around looking for her “people”, and when I got home it came up with Dawn (my roommate), and she said that JJ (one of the instructors at the college-she’s a year behind me, so she’s almost done!) had been bugging everyone at the barn today, trying to find a home for a dog.  He and his wife Juile, live a ways out of town and they had a dog dumped out there a week ago.  Seeing as he was so sweet they wanted to keep him, because he likes to follow them around and go watch Julie ride out in the feilds.  Well, they also happen to have a litter of wild kittens out at there place under a shed.  So, one thing led to another and the dog got to playing with one of the kittens, and somewhere along the line the kitten grabbed onto his face.  Don’t know what happened after that, but the kitten ended up suffering a broken back and JJ had to go home at lunch and take care of the kitten (yes, this is the country, and yes, he shot the kitten, but it would have been way more tramatic for the kitten to be taken to the vet, it had never been handled).  So, Dawn tells me this, and I make the mistake of asking what type of dog it is.  Well, of corse it has to be a heeler, and I have a horriably bad soft spot for heelers!  Long story short, I went and picked him up.  BAD ME!!

Well, he’s a sweetie, pretty shy, never been on a leash or in a house, and he’s about a year old.  So, him and Happy (my other heeler) just love each other!  So, basically I got myself another dog.  But it’s been good, he’s coming around, he’s still really shy, but he’s curious and he’s smart (then, again he is a heeler and they got the brains!).

Inless you haven’t seen it 500 times before, this is still a great run!  She lost some points in my book because if the bareback and bridless, but it’s still cool to watch!

Some random horse video, kinda cool though!

And for the record, this horse is AMAZING! The way he moves is just awsome! I want one!!

This is what I’ll be doing soon!!……well, after a few modifactions to my jeep!

See?!?! It’s addictive…and I blame Dan for getting my into it!

And this is why, we all know FORDS SUCK!!…..sad how the little jeep pulled him out! HeeHee!!!  So, what lesson have we learned here? Well, when your ford gets stuck, I will come and laugh at you….and then pull your ass out!

And not only, can you go climb on cool stuff….the SRT8, is just badass!! It just smoked a Supercharged Mustang!  Once again…..it’s still a ford (and just for the ford fans, they arn’t really THAT bad…)

I am SO excited! I just went a bought a new Jeep this morning with Dan (offical reason for the whole idea, and the Jeep liking problem/change)!! Dispite my Dad’s attempt to make me dislike Jeeps in my early driving years, Dan kinda changed that (Oops! Sorry Dad! Good thing you like Dan anyways!).  So, now I am a proud new owner of a 2000 JEEP CHEROKEE Sport!  WooHoo!  I’m looking foward to learning how to 4-Wheel, and got down some badass trails in it!  But we all know, half way down some wicked stuff, Dan will be dying to drive it himself….well, TOO BAD!! It’s mine and I’m gonna drive it!! (I love you Dan!)  And besides, I’m just extreamly happy to have something bigger to drive!  AND, I can haul more people around, AND I can bring Happy (my dog) more places!!

So, here are some pictures from the dealer!

And here is some my Dad took, with me standing by it:
