Gack! Not blue. Please, no blue. Maybe red for courage? Or yellow for… …weenies??[/QUOTE]

I have a yellow Pink Equine browband. I joke that it is perfect since yellow is the color of cowards. :wink:

And there was that politician and the pictures… hehehehe open weenie hehehehe

THIS IS AWESOME!!! I want to event so, so, so very badly. I want to go to shows and be part of the excitement! But the jumps - you have to jump the jumps and actually stay on your pony - all at the same time! While sober! Anyway, I have jumped in the past (HUGE jumps! BN jumps!) and I aspire to start over x-rails again. soon. after I finish my drink……

Sign me up! I’ve got high aspirations of one day, making it around N with my balls of steel. Alas, it will not be this year (or next).

I do believe that some sort of mango margarita would be the perfect new scent for Higher Standards. Maybe with a complimentary bottle of tequila. Eh? :smiley:

I, too, am a weenie wannabe!

I just really love crossrails, y’all.I’m regularly frightened by 2’ verticals. And cantering to fences.

Please be my people.

ETA: My current soap scent is “Woody’s Confidence Builder”. Admittedly, it does not always make me brave, but it does always make my tack delightful.

I was a weenie eventer before it was cool …hahaha:D

Once a weenie, always a weenie? For me, probably yes.

Weenies, we have LOWER standards for ourselves and Higher Standards for our tack.

Yep, I am much too sleep deprived this week.

Y’all tickle me!

I love the Woody’s Confidence soap too :slight_smile: He is such an amazing horse, and achieved more than was expected of him – that’s what I aspire to do! :smiley:

Set those expectations LOWER and then see if I can exceed them! :smiley: :smiley:

I think I am the MA version of CaitlinandTheBay!! I love crossrails too, especially trotting up to them! And Woody is my scent also! have bene tempted to just clean myself with it to see if it improves confidence! :slight_smile:

Have yet to event, but I hope to one day have the courage to do an elementary tadpole baby event!

I’m such a weenie I’m at a recognized dressage show this weekend. I don’t know what the heck is wrong with me :smiley:

Oh yeah. …others laugh as I trotted our first baby event at 18 inches. But I whooped when we completed with only time penalties. Canter maybe next year. Definitely a weenie!

Technically, there is not a rule that you have to stay sober & USEF does not drug test the humans, LOL. Note: NO I AM NOT ENCOURAGING RIDING WHILE INTOXICATED. Heck, I don’t even drink a beer till after it’s done, I need my focus. But hey, I am in the “Pedantic READ THE RULES Clique” (cuz you never have to freakin’ braid ever!!!) hahahaha.

my trainers actual advice upon my entering a jumper show at 2’6"- “Bring Rum”

I am happy to announce that thanks to Morgane from Idea of Order, we now have awesome LOWER art and it’s on shirts and mugs available at her zazzle shop

How about someone who likes to jump little jumps on some days but is terrified on others, is currently horseless, and is considering acquiring a pudgy gaited pony? Is there room for me, too?

There’s room for everyone in Weenie land. We’re supportive, not exclusive :slight_smile:

Count me in! I’ve been competing up to 2’9/Entry, but on a trusty horse. My biggest accomplishment this season was not throwing up before stadium and xc (though I did dry heave a few times).

Hi Twin!

If soon-to-be-your pudgy gaited pony has a sounder rear end than my pudgy gaited pony, then why not!

Granted we don’t have an airplane with a bumper hitch and Hoover can’t go higher than stepping over ground poles, but heck, you can be the crazy woman of the twinset.

Twinkies - I like it! And I might need to be crazy to take a racking horse over ground poles! :lol:

Funny, mine said the same thing :slight_smile: She also said drink it, you’ll either be more relaxed or feel less pain :winkgrin: Must a tool they pull out for us LOWERs when all else fails.
