A Note About This Blog

I used to be a writer. Unpublished, but a writer just the same. I have several 100,000 word novels sitting on my hard drive. Then I fell off a horse and got a concussion that scrambled my brains really good (yes, I was wearing a helmet.) After that forming a written sentence was very difficult for quite some time. It's still difficult, but at least now generally the sentence structure isn't egregiously flawed. Verbally and written wrong words pop in, I switch words around, and sometimes I make no sense at all. It isn't because I don't have knowledge of grammar and punctuation, but my brain simply can't do it sometimes. Reading this blog you're accepting that there's going to be things that look like typos or make no sense. It's not because I don't proofread, it's because my damaged brain doesn't see what's wrong. I try my best, but things will slip through. I don't need them pointed out, I know they're there, but if I continued to worry about them I wouldn't write at all. I didn't for quite some time. It's painful as a past master of words to use them so badly, but fortunately the words don't seem to mind.

Crawling Out of Internet Hell

Well, we seem to be back in the land of faster internet. What have I been doing? Riding and enjoying this:





That's the foxes that live in my arena. Literally, their den is into the slope on the side and they seem to have excavated a large hole out the top. I'd rather it than the ton of smaller prairie dog holes I used to have and having a fox there means the damn prairie dogs will keep their distance. I suspect there will be babies in the coming months.






Speaking of babies, due to my angel fish laying eggs more than once I'm trying my hand at raising them. The first time they actually turned into little swimming fish, but I lost them. Fortunately, they laid eggs again yesterday. The eggs are now in their own tank. They'll grow their tails, then eyes, then in about a week detach and be little swimming blobs.


I believe that's the male fertilizing in that pic. Yes, they like to lay them on the intake to the filter.
