Going for my riding lesson soon, I’m excited. The horse I’m riding is one of my absolute favorites. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to ride him more often. That’s the plan, at least.

Sunday, Dec. 4th.

lazybookreviews:

I’ll be (literally) back in the saddle! I’ve been waiting until my six-week checkup to ride my mare again, since (potentially) OWWW, and also she’s at her winter facility, which is an hour-long drive each way.

I absolutely can’t wait, even though I’m going to look like a sack of potatoes until I get my seat (and abs!) back. Of course, since my trainer has been schooling her during my hiatus, she’s going to be a total Ferrari when I get back on. 

Can’t wait, pretty pretty baby.

Whisper.: My best friend is sitting at the foot of my bed, reading over her... »

moderateclimates:

My best friend is sitting at the foot of my bed, reading over her notes for ancient history. She’s complaining how the teachers couldn’t construct the notes in an ordinary way, but she ruins the facade with a smile. She speaks of how she doesn’t like A Very Potter Musical’s Dumbledore, because…

Geek Love

moderateclimates:

Let’s explode the stars just to watch the universe fall apart around us. We’d be left in our own little vacuum in the space-time continuum. The gases would combust around us, as we make love in the blackness and emptiness of space. I would present you with an astronaut’s suit for your birthday, and a rocket for Christmas, and we would defy the laws of aerodynamics just to prove to the world that love will always be more than science.

You’re a caramel latte
when it’s raining outside
and I’ve too much work.

You’re a jumper in bed
that’s tatty and destroyed
due to years of me loving you.

You’re a bowl of noodle soup
in a winter in China,
slightly spicy, slightly sweet.

You’re a hot bath that soothes
aching muscles and creaking joints,
with a gentle kiss and loving sigh.

You’re just you,
not anything else,
and you’re whole.

I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren’t pretty, or smart, or young. They’re still princesses. All of us. Didn’t your father ever tell you that? Didn’t he?

-The Little Princess (via wearesavages)

I must read this.
