Horsebackwriter on Tumblr
A friend of mine from work sent me a link to a Tumblr blog written by Horsebackwriter. Like me, she has a bay Arabian. Her mare, Khyssie, reminds me a lot of Isis in her antics and markings. I saw the pictures of Khyssie and immediately had...

Stupid head cold is stupid
I went to the barn with plans for riding. It felt like it had been so long and I just wanted to ride my girls. I had been dreaming about riding them, about the way they move at the canter and how I have to sit at...

Nerdy Love Song and kitty
Kotaku had an article today featuring the video below showing a lady singing Nerdy Love Song with the help of an enthusiastic kitten. So much cuteness in one video. Related Images:

Gaming theory and stuff
A friend of mine and I were talking about gaming theory before lunch today. These are the sites we talked about. I’m posting these so I can go back and read them later. Bundle of Holding — like a software bundle except with RPGs. Role-playing game theory...

Week six of rain and rain rot
I can barely keep up with the rain rot on Kasane and Rajiyyah — much less help them heal when the rain keeps coming down. They are kept in some times, but that doesn’t help because the rain may come up in the middle of the night....

Summer grooming time
It was raining when I went to the barn. No riding or working in the rings because of the mud so I spent the afternoon brushing and loving on Rajiyyah and Kasane. They are both shedding their summer coats. Rajiyyah kept nuzzling me over the top of...

Rain rot on the mares
Both girls have rain rot really bad and it’s driving me nuts. Kasane’s back is so sore from rain rot that she flinches when my finger tips lightly touch her. Poor baby. The dew poisoning on Rajiyyah’s legs are at least looking better. The scabs still hurt even...

Claimed again
Two weeks ago when Mom brought down her two mares, all of the mares on Rajiyyah’s aisle of the barn were getting attention except Rajiyyah. She was very jealous. I stepped into her stall to groom her. She looked so happy to have the attention. The second...

Farrier on Saturday
Yesterday the farrier did Prize, Kasane, and Rajiyyah. Prize has a regular trim. Kasane and Rajiyyah both get front shoes. Rajiyyah is a pro at it, but this was Kasane’s third or fourth pair. Before the farrier arrived, I gave Kasane some Quietex (contains L-Triptophan, think same...

Bye-bye OS X, hello Mint Linux
I reinstalled OS X on the Acer Aspire One D150 and had it running 10.6.3. I left it running (plugged in) while I had dinner. I came back to check on it an hour or so later and it was stuck in a reboot loop. It looked...

Taking the Acer Aspire One D150 to OS X 10.6.8
I’ve had to reinstall OS 10.6.3 several times because after every time I’ve done the update to 10.6.5, restored the kexts as instructed, I’ve ended up with the dreaded white screen error where I can’t do anything on the system. This indicates a kext problem with the...

Free to ride!
I saw the physical therapist today. He said that typically a calf injury like mine takes about three weeks total to heal from the last time it was injured. (So I’m halfway through that time.) The best thing? I’m cleared to ride. Yay! Kasane is going to...

New mares at the barn
Mom brought down two of her mares to board at my barn. The new girls are Cedars KenyaCatchMe (Botswana x Cedars Farah Moniet) and RSA Sahra Nazeem (BB Akeem x Ilehnisa Azeem). Kenya is Kasane’s half sister by the same sire. Kenya is also Rajiyyah’s sister with...
