My horse has street cred, yo!
My new horse is what they refer to as a "pocket pony." He's also a huge goofball. He loves people and loves attention, loves begging for treats, loves getting as near me as he's allowed to get without actually rubbing his head on me and knocking me over. He is also not good at just relaxing and hanging out, so I spend a lot of time standing around ( Read more... ) -
My new horse (rambling plus photos)
So my last post just said my new horse passed his vet check with flying colors. And now, he's mine! He's an 8 year old ex racehorse (OTTB to horse people) named Tucson Magic.
I've never worked with a horse like Tucson. This horse and I are apparently the perfect personality match. He's not as confident in himself as he should be as gorgeous as ( Read more... ) -
Photo meme + horse news
I'm reading old entries from a blog I recently found, Behind the Bit, and there was a photo meme entry in there. It seemed fun, so I decided to do it!
This is a photo from the ballon glow at the University of Arizona last November. The Tucson High School marching band was playing in front of the balloons, and were really a blast!

Other journal sites?
So I think I'm going to start a food blog about things I cook, giving alternative ways of making them, etc. By default I'd tend to just do it on LJ. But are there other sites which are really good which I should know about ( Read more... ) -

Music seen in 2008
I was curious how many shows I went to in a year, so I decided to try to keep track.
I stopped keeping good track in October... but that was when I had a combination of overtime and a new horse, so I think I may have remembered all the shows I went to in the last three months of the year. I definitely went to far fewer shows those months, and the ( Read more... ) -
Top 10 Calexico songs
This is a music meme. Because, well, I love music.
Comment on this post and I'll give you a band. Don't worry, I'll try to make it one you know and love. You put your ten favorite songs by that band on your LJ and challenge others to do the same.

Jimmy Eat Calexico
This past weekend was pretty awesome. I went to a completely unplugged show in Phoenix because Keaton was playing there - it was Curtis Peoples, Keaton Simons, Tony Lucca. They were in a little coffee shop which had no PA, so it was just guitars and voices, no microphones, no amps. The three of them sang some songs together, and their voices are ( Read more... ) -

I love Matt Nathanson; he reminded me why I love music when I forgot. But it doesn't compare to this: http://tinyurl.com/5zz6xv
