The Diet Coke Queen: January 2013
http://icanreadgreek.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
The Diet Coke Queen. Wednesday, January 23, 2013. The most recent is a man by the name of Darius Bentley, who my mother was given a biography of, but no idea as to how he fits into the family. I suggested perhaps someone thought he was a family member at some time, and never got around to figuring out if it was true or not. Kate suggested that he was that generation's George Clooney and he'd been on the cover of Tiger Beat of the 1800s a bunch of times and that's why we had the biography of him.

The Diet Coke Queen: Luck
http://icanreadgreek.blogspot.com/2012/04/luck.html
The Diet Coke Queen. Tuesday, April 10, 2012. One of our long-time clients (who has known me for about 15 years now) looked at me on Saturday, asked about Dundy, and then summed up the last couple weeks with this simple sentence: "Ellen, you have the worst luck.". It's true. Although I have hit the lottery in so many aspects (jobs, friends, family), it would appear that the balance has to be kept by ill/injured ponies (and a non-existent romantic life, but that's a story for a different day).

The Diet Coke Queen: June 2011
http://icanreadgreek.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
The Diet Coke Queen. Monday, June 27, 2011. Tuesday, June 21, 2011. In honor of Father's Day. Things my father learned to do because of my crazy hobby:. 1 Drive a truck and trailer with 2 large horses, neither of whom is particularly interested in standing up properly. Bonus points for knowing how to remove divider in trailer so that particularly fussy horse can be turned around and walked out head-first instead of backing up. 5 Proper use of bungee cords, duct tape, and extension cords to set up horse s...

The Diet Coke Queen. Tuesday, May 1, 2012. And now we have a weekend off, which I plan to spend about as far out of the barn as one can get. Time for a little Broadway, family time, and old friends (who may or may not be horse people as well. You can take the girl out of the barn, and all that.). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Diet Coke Queen: February 2013
http://icanreadgreek.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
The Diet Coke Queen. Tuesday, February 19, 2013. February is a "barn closed" month. We go hard for the bulk of the year, and without an indoor winter lessons are cancelled more than they're taught, so closing down for a while is the easiest and most efficient way to deal with everything. Horses get some time to chill, and I get a month to have a life. When I get home on Monday, I have 3 horses to boot camp back into work (although to be fair, Dundy will probably take less time than the mares), manes to p...

The Diet Coke Queen: December 2014
http://icanreadgreek.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
The Diet Coke Queen. Wednesday, December 3, 2014. Sometimes you get lucky. Sometimes you get lucky and stumble into your lifelong passion at age 9. Sometimes you get lucky and that barn your non-horsey parents send you to not only gives you a wonderful start, but introduces you to people who will be important forever. Sometimes you get lucky and that trainer who made you cry every time he opened his mouth until you were 13 ends up being your mentor, your friend, and your favorite person in the world.

The Diet Coke Queen: January 2012
http://icanreadgreek.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
The Diet Coke Queen. Monday, January 9, 2012. I had also intended to go to the stage door, but as everyone can see from the photos I put on Facebook, there was no freaking way that was happening. There was police tape everywhere, and girls were climbing trees in order to get a better view. Absolutely nuts. I think I prefer it when the actors are just "Broadway famous", but it was still a fun night. Thursday, January 5, 2012. 4 How to deal with roaches. Yes, really. Thanks sketchy neighbors! This also tau...

The Diet Coke Queen: October 2011
http://icanreadgreek.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
The Diet Coke Queen. Thursday, October 6, 2011. Today I am happy. 1 It's not raining. Finally. 2 I'm going to spend the afternoon finishing up some paperwork and then reading a book (and getting paid for it). 3 Fall TV. Even if my new guilty pleasure has already been cancelled, I'm a little too excited about all the TV I'm going to be watching this year. And yes, I just admitted to watching Playboy Club. 5 There's no horse show this weekend, so I have Sunday off. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
