Okay, so I'm remembering now why I haven't been allowing myself to sleep in this summer. I didn't get out of bed until noon today, which was fun at the time. Did a lot of reading. Nothing intellectual, just finishing up my Jilly Cooper novel. I was going to go ride this morning, but when my alarm went of at 8 am, I decided I wanted to take a day ( Read more... )

Thunderstorms are more fun in North Carolina ( Read more... )

I was never very good at juggling. I could keep two of the balls in the air with no problem, but the third always ended up forgotten and falling to the ground.

I'm actually kind of amazed at how well I'm fitting myself into routine now that I'm back. It's definitly not my old routine, because it involves me getting up at 7:00 of my own accord, which is weird, but it allows me to get out and ride before it's hot, so I'm okay with it ( Read more... )

So, my dad decided to change my cell phone number again. I'm back to a Hood River number now, so it'll be local to all of my friends from home. Don't you feel lucky and special? I thought you would. Anyway, you can now reach me at: (541) 400-0892 ( Read more... )

Well, she was wearing her blanket one day, and I hopped on and she ( Read more... )

So this is my second journal entry on this subject. The first was mostly me screaming and ranting and contained a lot of expletives, so I marked it as private ( Read more... )

So today is the National day of Silence. I've got an hour left before I break mine, since I've got to ride Jackie's horse for the e-scribes and I don't think she would be amused by my silent protest against harrassment and bullying, but it's been an interesting experience none the less. I was honestly a little worried about how some of my friends ( Read more... )
