A little girl and her pony ride
It has definitely been quite the day in celebration for Jessica's bday. Since no one wanted to go with her, I decided to go for a horseback riding trail with Jess and her 2 younger brothers. When we go there, we had to fill out all this forms so it was taking a while. While waiting for the lil clipboard so I could sign forms, one of the guides (this cowboy country singer wannabe) starts yelling at me: "Hey you, in the black, come here...come here!" I was kinda weirded out cause he was talking in a baby tone, like you would to a little child so I ignored him. But he persisted so I walked across the field to where he was standing. So then he tells me that I get to hold the reins and let the horse feed on the grass. By this point I'm thinking, why would I enjoy standing here watching the horse eat grass? So I was there for a good 15 minutes, then I look up and notice that Jess' younger brother is doing the same thing. Well finally Jessica comes up to me and helps me fill out the forms....well I don't fill in my age cause it only asks for it if you're under 21, and I also check the box for refusal to wear the helmet. Well Mr. Cowboy comes back and gives this weird look and says to Jessica (in a very rude tone) "Is she EVEN over 18??" Uhm hello, I'm right in front of you, you could ask me! So I got annoyed and I was like, "Uhm I'm older than her!!" So he looks very shocked and he's like "Ohh? Ohhh!!" Uhm just great, he probably thought I was 5 and that I would find it oh so much fun to stand there feeding the horse! But throughout the rest of the day, he kept referring to me as ma'am. It was alright, though my ass and thighs were killing me from all the bouncing on the saddle. Sooo weird though, we had a woman guide and I never noticed till the end that she only had one arm. It was actually kinda freaky...but it's so bad cause I always tend to fixate on weird things like that...such a bad habit! Hmm afterwards we had dinner at the Tomato Factory and since the girls really wanted to go to a bar, I took them to Clydz since we were right in NB. Niice how I got in with no problem yet the horse man thought I was 5. Funny how things work out huh? But one thing that did make the night interesting was the uncomfortable encounter with someone we did not wanna see. I just found it weird that it's been a year and we've never run into her in EW but baaam, while in NB it's like right across from ya! Oh another discovery was how George Street isn't as ghetto anymore. I love how when I lived there, there wasn't much to go to except like Burger King. But now they have this Mexican restaurant that looks all cute and this giant Sprint shop!
Totally random but I love pumping my own gas. I seriously think that they should allow it in NJ. Makes me feel all maintenance guyish...like raaahh...I wanna build a house or something! I think I would be pretty good at it. Like the other day, our laundry room had like 5 inches of water in it. Everyone was screaming, "Oh it's the washing machine, it broke...blah blah." I was like, "Uhm, no one ever used it! I think it's the water heater, it probably just burned a hole in the bottom!" Yeah, of course no one listened but eventually they realized that I was right. Damn straight, I've been in Home Depot enough times...I know what I'm talking about!
