First post on Tabi-kun!
Sep. 5th, 2006 08:10 pmYesterday was a good day, though it ended on a pretty bad note with the whole Steve Irwin thing. :/
After putting the ducks out and caring for all the other animals, Mom and I headed out on Mccourtney to go to an 'Open Barn' for a stable that breeds and sells Andalusian horses. Mom and I spent at least an hour there watching the presentations they did showing off the horses and walking around the stables petting said horses. The horses were so beautiful--Andalusians are just gorgeous. *_* Also, they had at least four baby horses, who were soooo cute. There was one baby who was about two or three weeks old who was almost pure white (augh, I wanted him!), and also a really cute week-old baby (who I also wanted). Not that I'd actually ever get a baby horse, as I'm not as obsessed with horses as my Mom, but I loved them!
After that ended at about two, we headed off to a dog show that was going on at the fairgrounds. I didn't get to spend as much time there as I would have liked, but we watched some of the shows and wandered around looking at the vendors and at various dogs. There was a corgi puppy there that was so perfect... Whenever I get a corgi, I hope it's as beautiful as she was. Also, while we were there a dachsund escaped his pen and proceeded to cause chaos by dashing as fast as his little legs would carry him until he was captured a good twenty minutes later. XD;; Quite the amusing spectacle.
From there, I went home with Mom and took care of the pets before Mom took off for work. I packed up and went with her because Dad picked me up there. I was apprehensive about leaving my ducks and pheasants alone for the night, but they were fine. However, just as we were arriving hom with Dad, I remembered I forgot my laptop charger at Mom's. ._.:;; Sooo we took off again and retrieved that, much to Dad's annoyance.
At Dad's, Dave (Dad's friend) came over and we all had spagetti with tomato sauce and olives. After dinner, Dave and I got in a discussion about the paranormal, which somehow turned into a discussion about 9/11,. O_o;; Long story short, we all ended up watching 911 in Plane Sight because Dad and Ryan hadn't seen it. Such a fascinating documentary, though I do question how much of it actually holds up to scrutiny.
Today was a little boring, but it was fine. I hooked Tabi-kun up, burned some CDs and data DVD-Rs to transfer to Tabi-kun, and the like. I spent the first four or five hours of my day doing Chem homework. That was a little frustrating, especially because some of the problems were just strange, but I survived. Later in the day, Dad, Ryan, and I all took a trip to Staples, where we didn't do anything, and then to Kmart and Radioshack, where similar amounts of nothingness occurred. Then we went home and ended up watching documentaries on Steve Irwin's life on Animal Planet, which made me sad again. :( Now, basically I'm just here typing away and getting used to Tabi-kun's keyboard.
I'm not particularly looking forward to six hours of Chemistry tomorrow.
