Styles has a wonderful long weekend and we were planning on all kinds of fun, from some gaming, to a picture taking excursion, to a long trail ride with some friends.
Well things didn't go exactly as planned.
Friday evening I usually have a lesson to give but my student had a party to go to though so we made plans to switch it to saturday afternoon, I was at the barn later than normal, I got my kids in the barn and was just ready to leave when April showed up, I offered to help her get her three in. Good thing I did, we got the first two in and went back for the other one and a spare(we take care of him once in a while) things seemed normal until I got Davy in to the light, in the middle of his back there was a nasty gash, I mentioned it to April and she said "oh great, well lets get him in and clean it up" I knew it wasn't a matter of us cleaning it, it was a case for the vet to clean it and add some stitches. Heres a few pictures.
There it is, all clean and ready for the stitches

All in all it took two layers of Sub-Q sutures(about 10-15) and a row of 9 surface sutures *wince*

He'll be fine, just has to stay quiet for the next two weeks, eat nasty pain meds for the next week and get 25cc of penicillin shot into him ever day for the next 3 days.
Saturday was good, I took my student for a trail ride, after I got home we finished up a OOTS game we had started with a friend last week, Styles won because he's a Loot hording bastard ;) after the game she went home to meet her hubby on-line to play some WoW. Then a new set of victims...I mean friends showed up to learn about OOTS, Ryan had read a bit of the comic, his wife Sarah had no clue what it was, and no clue about RPG's in general, I know I know, the OOTS game isn't a RPG but it's something close. We had a blast! The game isn't done yet and we are expecting them over soon, lets see if Styles playing style helps him tonight. Of course he has to contend with Ryan who is choosing to play rather nasty.
Oh here we all are playing the fun-ness :)

Here's my side of the table, I'm playing as Durkon this game, it's kinda nice because I've played as Elan for the last three times, he's sweet and all but weak!
