Also, I got an inquiry about Sandy merch. Would any of y'all be interested in that? I was thinking of stickers to start off.

There's a racehorse gelding at the barn for summer break that she's become fast friends with. They have stalls beside each other and Sandy protects him in pasture. Everyone calls the gelding her boyfriend. He is called Five because he is five years old.

She's really robbing the cradle with her lil summer fling. She'll be 27 in September lol.

If I had money, I'd try to buy Five so Sandy could enjoy him for longer lol

Pixel has always been my mom's cat, but when I moved out, she had me take her to keep the other cat I had company while I was at work. With the other cat now long since passed, my mom asked yesterday if she could have Pixel back because she really misses her.

Pixel and I have never really been close. I agreed and my mom went all out and dedicated an entire bedroom just for the cat. Pixel is absolutely loving it and keeps bothering people to come look at her room. She also woke my parents up at 4 AM to get pets. She never did any of that while living with me.

Pixel tried to jump out of my mom's arms when we got to her house because she recognized it and wanted to go hang out in her face spot on the steps.

100000% a great decision.

I got a Medusa tattoo over the weekend and I'm tryna come up with names for the 4 cute lil viper gals that now inhabit my arm.

Edit: here's a pic. Art and tat done by Maura at Nice Ink in Canonsburg, Pa

She launched herself across the room and knocked over me, her brother Radar, and a table.

No, this isn't the first time she's done this.

No, it won't be the last.

He's just staring. I asked him to show me what he wants (a command he knows)and he just wagged his tail.

He's such a lil weirdo

The weather here has been nothing but crazy heat and torrential storms. It's been kicking my ass (hooray chronic illness -_-) and I haven't been going out much at all because of it. Haven't seen Sandy in two weeks and I decided to brave the heat to go visit and give her a good grooming.

I got about three brushes in before the heat got the better of me. I almost passed out and then puked up all of the water I'd drank in the past hour. I drank way more than I realized and had what my mom calls "water belly". I drank too much and my body couldn't process it quick enough and turn it into sweat. So I kept drinking to cool myself and ended up sick and not sweating enough.

Like, I hurled like a goddamn Squirtle doing that mouth water gun thing.

So I got Sandy put in pasture, snapped this pic of her filthy ass getting a drink, then went and sat down and poured water over my head until I was cooled enough to safely drive home.

Been drinking ice cold Gatorade and resting since I got back. I don't plan on going out to the barn until it's cooler but might make a brief exception on Sunday because my bestie is coming to town to visit for my bday and he and his wife wanna meet Sandy. I see my bestie and his wife in person maybe once a year because they live like 3 hrs away, so this is a very special occasion. We'd be going in the morning, just after Sandy has had breakfast, to beat the heat and see her while she's still in her stall. She has to eat before I do anything with her in the mornings or else she's a raging bitch lol. I don't mind planning stuff around her meals. Girl deserves to eat on schedule lol.

Anyway, there will prolly be very little Sandy posts for a while because of the weather. Just know that she's doing very well and is in great hands. :)
