Volunteer last night
I've helped the same little boy, a nine or ten year old with pale red hair, just about every Monday night since volunteer started in April. He has an attention problem, but otherwise seems quite bright. He's never bothered, however, to learn my name.
At the end of our session, the instructor always has the riders thank the horses and the volunteers. She stood by my shoulder and asked him to thank me - 'and what's your helper's name'?
'Thank you, Miss...' he regarded me critically for a second. 'Thank you, Miss Boobs'.
I'm glad Pep is such a patient pony; she didn't mind when the coordinator and I bent over double and howled.

That's what we all call her anyway.

OH. MY. GOD. I almost wish you had had to hold it in...and that someone had taken a picture of your face. :-) --David

That is the funniest thing I have heard in a long time. I feel like you need an avatar. Get cracking doing some close-ups with that fancy digital camera...
