It Bugs Me

Anna and I rode Mystique and Bai today, even though it kept threatening to rain. First, Zeke kept trying to get out while we were taking the other horses out, and Mystique didn't want to come out. Then Bebe (our dog) was barking at Zeke who was running around in the pasture, and she wouldn't come when I told her to. And then I was working Mystique in the round pen and when I told her to walk, she started cantering! Me and animals just weren't getting along well. But we did manage to ride without it raining on us, which is a good thing.

I got inside and was brushing my hair out when I felt something in there. First I thought it was a bobby pin, then I saw it and it looked like a piece of burdock. I called for Anna who was in the other room to come and help me get it out. Then I saw that the little piece of burdock was some sort of bug and completely freaked out. (Me and insect aren't on the greatest of terms) I began yelling for Anna to get it out, so she ran in and got it out of my hair by tearing my hair out by fistfulls...okay maybe not, but that's what it felt like. Then Anna ran and got a flyswatter and...well, let's just say that the bug's life is history.

Oh dear...too funny! Not that it's really funny that you got a bug in your hair, but the way you wrote about it.
