Use your Sicilian connection as you see fit to pry any late-breaking news from the human. I have seen various supplies going into the house here, including some ridiculous paper hats with nonsense written on them - why oh why to I feel I will shortly have one wedged between my ears with an elastic under my chin...<br /><br />CindyLou, I think I will attend your party instead. Those pointy paper hats are scaring me and I fear they are the tip of the birthday iceberg. I have been watching the mailbox carefully, especially now the flag signal thingy has snapped off. Thank you for thinking of me as I cross the threshold into my fourteenth year. I feel quite ancient but Jack says I'm still a tadpole. He also called you "a fine lookin big gal with some meat on her bones"...I think it was a compliment.<br /><br />Billie, I like this idea of a bidding war - it makes me realize how undervalued I am here. I would like to travel from bidder to bidder, causing the woman to wail and gnash her teeth at my absence. What a pleasing visual.<br /><br />Gale, you are, of course, one of the bidders that I will be visiting. You don't have any of those pointy paper birthday hats, so you? I thought not. And thank you and Mr. Gale for thinking of me on my birthday. Thank goodness there are humans out there who attach some importance to my day of birth. Herself says I may get a celery stick and half a mini carrot if I behave. Just call me Oliver Donkey Twist.<br /><br />Buddy, I'm very excited at the idea of receiving cards - I hear they taste sublimely wonderful. If you write to me at my email account, which is - <br />sheaffer1@gmail.com - I will have the woman send you my address. I won't tell Molly because I would risk an unpleasant concusion.ponymaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02996833096239732307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-69027624666972006222009-05-04T17:58:00.000-07:002009-05-04T17:58:00.000-07:00Hay Sheaffer - um - if someone wanted to send you ...Hay Sheaffer - um - if someone wanted to send you a birthday card - where would this someone send it???<br /><br />XXOOBuddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11356739227129758160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-17937692476059599382009-05-04T16:03:00.000-07:002009-05-04T16:03:00.000-07:00Sheaffer, you know we have "first dibs" on you and...Sheaffer, you know we have "first dibs" on you and Jack!!! (What's two more?)<br /><br />But I also know that getting you two away from your woman would be downright impossible, and she'd never speak to us again.<br /><br />I'm afraid we must decline your lovely invitation, but we will have something special coming to you in the mail VERY SOON, won't we, Mr Gale? Mr Gale, we WILL, won't we?<br /><br />Don't you worry, Sheaffer, Mr Gale will be at the post office within a day or two!!!Galehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03057130676408193394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-875912503085533952009-05-04T13:13:00.000-07:002009-05-04T13:13:00.000-07:00Aha!

I've instructed my human to track down a couple of *things* to send along with the card. (actually, one of the things has been inadvertently mentioned here) On the appointed day, my woman, my pony and myself will be gathered in our garden, drinking lemon squash and wearing large hats. <br /><br />If the woman ever did have the temerity to attempt to auction you off, I'm sure there would be spirited bidding between Billie and my woman. I (and she) would LOVE to have you here!!! Of course, Billie is right... with the first bid, the woman would be crying and asking forgiveness from you!

I have finally gathered the complete ...Hey Sheaffer<br />I have finally gathered the complete report on the Party Planning meeting. The initial data is still correct but I felt it was incomplete. The barn man came out to groom us on Thursday and closed himself into our " Cage". While he was innocently combing my glorious tail I asked about the plans for your Soiree. He replied that it was not for public release. I responded that we are of course Sicilian donkeys, and while I was a learned and cultured being....well Jerry...hmmmm! I believe that we made him an offer he could not refuse. Your party will of course be the event of the year. They are planning a bake sale, Silent auction, 50/50 draw, and many other things. They will also be accepting donations of used tack and blankets, etc for the Primrose Santuary. Even Canadian Tire money would be of use. Let us hope that everyone who can will attend. The Barn man will continue to keep us appraised..if he knows what is in his best interest. There is talk of a cake but sadly the only mention of Stud Muffins was made by Molly reffering to Buddy.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00765497866959105786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-84717082748574971512009-05-01T12:16:00.000-07:002009-05-01T12:16:00.000-07:00Smokey!!

There are one or two paramedics who will be there so that should cover the physical damage. I think the guests will be stunned at your ability to entertain. This is all very exciting.ponymaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02996833096239732307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-41190724089041994082009-05-01T07:21:00.000-07:002009-05-01T07:21:00.000-07:00Sheaffer...

I wish you could be here to help celebrate - you could meet all my donkey friends and play some lively games of "Pin the Posterior on the Human".ponymaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02996833096239732307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-26641780835467924672009-05-01T05:49:00.000-07:002009-05-01T05:49:00.000-07:00Billie, how I wish all my blog friends could beam ...Billie, how I wish all my blog friends could beam themselves here for my birthday. I can almost certainly promise a snow-free day. I have submitted your bid in case I end up on the auction table (herself says it will have to be an iron trestle table...). I will cherish the mental picture of her on one knee begging for my return while I turn a deaf ear and stare absentmindedly into the distance. You have brightened my day no end.ponymaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02996833096239732307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-78700216317690177862009-04-30T19:03:00.000-07:002009-04-30T19:03:00.000-07:00Sheaffer - I'm so disappointed I cannot attend you...Sheaffer - I'm so disappointed I cannot attend your pardee. But I know your woman will post pics!<br /><br />I just LOVED the pics of Doc (hate him) and Miss Molly - sure wish she could have been front and center and not the "other" one. The pics of you and Jack resting - too cute.<br /><br />I will be at your party in spirit dear Sheaffer - you will feel my presence - I hope.<br /><br />Did I mention that Ben and Jerry are so cute (as my woman puts it) that she wants them to come live with me - geeze!!!<br /><br />XXOOBuddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11356739227129758160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7769158267288053176.post-63114527715186049992009-04-30T17:28:00.000-07:002009-04-30T17:28:00.000-07:00Well, it sounds just wonderful.

If I had the ability to beam myself up there I would do so in a moment!<br /><br />All I can say, Sheaffer, is if the woman ever attempts to auction you off, I put an open cap on my bid and we shall appropriate an entire railway to bring you down south. <br /><br />I'm certain she would be running along behind, shrieking 'it was a mistake! a terrible joke! come back, Sheaffer!'<br /><br />We would let her get good and scared, enjoy a nice visit with you here, and when she begged, properly, on bended knee, we would convey your Sheaffer-ness back home again, stopping off in all the towns of your friends so that you could toss stud muffins as you waved a hoof.billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.com
