Hey, I'm back (again)! Just like I said I would be (but not as soon as I'd hoped).

My life is good. I'm riding every week (with a break between blocks of lessons since it's expensive) and I hope I'll be jumping again in no time. I rode a Standardbred cross named Sparky in my first lesson (tomorrow's my second lesson). He was great. Except at first. He kept testing me to see what he could get away with. I wasn't sure how the instructor would react to me giving him a big kick, so I tried to be gentle. I soon gave up and relied on big kicks to get him moving. At least I GOT him moving, Val (the instructor) said some people can't even get him off the centreline the first time they ride him. He's such a cutie, though. I loved him after he really picked up. He's fast, really. And his canter is so smooth I actually feel relaxed! This is a big change from Aria, Solo, Kortex and Abby at Travis Hall.

I also think my winter riding boots made me feel weird. They go up 2 my knees! I'm so used to only having my breeches between me and the horse, it feels odd to have an insulated boot in between too!  So I wasn't as sensitive to how hard I really was squeezing the darn horse anyway.

I guess I should shut up about horses now. But I'm so EXCITED!!! Yeah, life is good! (do not mention homework, im in a good mood 4 once) Yay, ponies! I can't wait!!! I like smileys! Ya think? Whee! This is so much fun!
Oh, and did I mention my wins (yep, that's "wins" as in PLURAL!!!!)? I was in the Grand River Life section of the Guelph Mercury and Kitchener Record newspapers for coming first in their short story contest (with story Victory on Two Fronts, which is about polo). AND NOW I'm gonna be in an (Nov/Dec.?) issue of WhatIf? magazine for winning THEIR short story (humour) contest. (with story Grandma's Computer [subject self explanatory]).

   My winnings are thus far: 
shortlisted for Stephen Leacock Memorial Humour short story contest
2nd place W.A.R. short story contest = 25
1st place Grand River Life (was in children's category since I'm not 16, but they bumped me up and I still won) = 200
1st place WhatIf? Humour contest = Stone Rd Mall Gift Certificate for 100

I need to write more stories, since I only have 1 left not due to be published! (Wait for it, The Buccaneer will win someday)

You ever write any horror short stories? I have an H.P.Lovecraft fan site and it has a fan fiction page that is just dying to get filled with some twisted horrific tales. If your interested, let me know and We will see if we can't work out something. Till then my website is at http://clix.to/callofcthulhu/

Horror? :o That's a genre I've been neglecting for a while... but since I'm supposed to write some new stories I can give it some thought.
