LOLOL!!!! As a past golf cart winner, I am sitting here laughing at the confusion happening in center ring. They had everyone try their key and none of them worked (the key can actually go in in both directions, but if you don’t know that you might think your key doesn’t work!!). The problem is, each person dropped their key in a jar when they were finished, so no one knew which key was originally theirs!! Hahahaha!!!! Ooops!! Well, they finally decided to have everyone redraw a key and little gentleman Connor Farley wound up winning it!!! Everyone was cool enough to just let him drive it out of the ring, even though he’s too young to actually drive it!!!! Congrats, Connor!!!!!

Well, it’s the last morning of the show. With some sadness I drove Tinny (our very fancy Chevy Cobalt, I like to think of her as vintage, what with the key that really is just a key, necessitating me actually extending my hand to manually lock and unlock the doors and one of those bars across the front of the seat for adjusting that when released while the car is in motion send you shooting backwards….yes, little Tinny is a beaut….) through the McDonald’s drive-thru to yell “Hello? Hello? Helllllooooo????” into the speaker, only to have a garbled conversation in Oklahonglish about the fact that I just wanted a large Diet Coke (nope, no mango smoothie, nope, no fries (seriously, I can’t make this up, she really asked me if I wanted fries with my diet coke)). Ahhhhh, OKC, I will miss you for the next 355 days!!!! I have had my breakfast of diet coke and candy corn, so last night’s bed time of 3:00am,(which I guess technically makes it this morning’s bedtime of 3:00 am) will not slow me down at all!!!! Let’s make some kids cry this morning!!! (C’mon, I mean the good kind of cry!!) Game on!!!

I have a crackberry (mine is one of the only ones in the country that is still working, apparently!!), and I just hammer it out!!!

So we had our second horse excused from the second class of the night….that’ll leave a mark. Ouch.

Barns 1 & 3 are busy with people trying out horses!!! Some look like they might be good pairs….some…I’d keep shopping!!!

HUGE shout-out to Steve DeBolt and favorite moment of the night as he parade-gaited past me and said, “I have on my Spanx!!!!”. Steve, yet one more reason why I love you!!!!! YOU know how to wear a white outfit and keep a smooth silhouette!!!!!

Ooops!! The tractor to drag the ring stalled out as it was coming down the ramp to drag the ring after the carriage obstacle course and before the ladies world championship!! A four-wheeler it into the ring and spun out, then they put people on the four wheeler, thendrug it out with a Bobcat!!! Hahaha!!!! Ooops!!!

I started doing this because I like to talk and be enthusiastic and happy (and talk about sparkles). I also like to be silly and point out things that I think are funny. I intentionally remain generic about anything that might make someone feel uncomfortable or bad. As long as I have fun, I’ll do this (during my vacation time). I have not had fun today. Please keep that in mind. This is for entertainment and results. Have a great night and weekend. I’m going to, and I hope to share it with you !!!!!

Weeeeee!!!! I’m driving the golf cart and Dawn is throwing t-shirts!!!!!!

I know we’ll be watching the amazing Morgan horses at OKC tonight, but don’t forget to take a few minutes and vote for fellow equine lover Carson Kressley on Dancing With The Stars!!! Let’s show Carson some love and call 800-868-3409 or text on AT&T 3409!!!! GO CARSON!!!!!
