So, with that said, I said to myself, "Self, why not make up your own meme? "
Why not?
So, I want to know about your favorite coffee mug. The one you use most, if not all the time. The one that makes your cup of joe that much better just becasue it's in it. the one that makes you happy. I want all the silly details. =o)

Mine is a mug from the Trail of Painted Ponies collection. It's called 'Pony Espresso'
My horse trainer, Ellen, gave it to me for Christmas a few years back. I love Ellen dearly and I am lucky to have met someone like her. She is a top notch horeseman and she taught me so much about riding and how to care for horses. She is funny and fun to be with. Fell off your horse? She'll give you a rum and coke and tell you to Cowgirl Up - big girls don't cry and the rum will make to boo boo better. She's a tough as nails women.
I use it every morning at work. It's big and heavy. It holds a lot of coffee and that is a good thing. A very good thing. Using it often reminds me of a time I was out at her ranch riding and working my horse and it was cold. Bitter cold because of the wind. She came out of the house and to the arena and handed me a cup of coffee, and it was steaming hot and so wonderful to hold in my hands, the warmth soothing my icy hands and the steam rising to warm my face. I tied up Ruby and Ellen and I sat there, drank our coffee and just enjoyed each other's company.

i'm not a huge mickey mouse or disney fan, but we went on vacation there about 2 years ago (parents, tk, me and shob) and it was fun. no one killed each other. and i like retro things sometimes. and i like coffee. therefore, win. also, it's nice and big and heavy and it works great for hot chocolate* too. :-)
and babe, could you tell me how to post a pic in a comment? i'll give you a dollar. for serious.

I've even competed. Did barrel racing and Gymkhana (http://www.calgymkhana.com/Public_Pages/Gymkhana.aspx) on Ruby. It was a blast. I had to sell her though, in June. It this time in my life, I can't afford the cost to keep her. I sold her to a friend though, so I can see her whenever I want, and I know that she is being cared for well and loved. I hope to again one day be able to afford another horse.
I like that mug! very vintage and retro-y. Heavy mugs are good, in case you need to bludgeon someone, which I often want to do early in the morning when I have't had enough caffienne and people are being annoying.
no one killed each other
hee, then call that trip a success!

Hmmm, not sure. I'll see if I can find out anything.
