Pathology, pathology, pathology....it get easier to type the more you do it. We were with a local vet today learning about equine diseases, bio-chemistry and breeds types. Tomorrow we will continue with her as well as go out and observe some horses, should be fun.
Kimi fired up our big ass BBQ for some burgers, here's Liw attempting to put some cheese on them. I'm surprised firetrucks didn't show up.
Family night. Yes we had family night in my little commune of equine massage therapists. For those that don't know, Liw is addicted to a horse simulated virtual web site called Howrse. She will often rise early before the alarm or stay up after midnight to feed, water or groom her "horses"...notice the quotes. She talks about them like they are real and I take every opportunity to tell her..."they aren't real Liw, they are just computer animated objects and they can't hear you". She just ignores me.
Anyways back to family night, one of Liw's "horses" was due to give birth to twins so while I prepared dessert (see picture below), and yes that is Reese shell I'm holding. Note that all bowls and spoons were in the dishwasher so I improvised and used mugs and forks...it all works.
Liw logged on to Howrse then we all gathered round the computer to witness the birth. I'm going to be honest, I wasn't at all grossed out or had that "high" feeling when a mother gives birth......maybe because IT'S NOT REAL!!!!!! Just kidding Liw, I fully support you and crazy like affection for this site. 
To make a long story short, Liw named one of the foals after me....Ruby Chubb, which by the way is my hobbit name and if you haven't looked up your hobbit name please log off from my blog as you are not a Lord of the Rings fan and I can't be associated with you.I'm off to make some phone calls seeing that my room has been booked for a massage....I'm not complaining, I had a wonderful massage last week.
Toodles,
Jess
