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 Unpublished, but a writer just the same.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.

Why yes, I would jump off a bridge if all my friends did

I should not be going to Watermelon. I should not have yielded to peer pressure. Based on today's ride I may just be doing the dressage and going home. If, indeed, this happens, I am not putting any more effort into turning Banana into an eventer for the time being. I'm tired of having horses that need training. I want something I can just ride, and Banana, I can just ride her down the road, so that's what we're going to do.

Edit: got an email back from OOT (out of town) trainer. She's going to be there this weekend so I'm actually going to pay for coaching. I feel better just getting an email back. I will not be in this alone.
