Dear Edward,

I know that you're having fun, but I put you to bed an hour and a half ago. GO TO SLEEP. Stop singing. Stop telling pony stories. Stop making random cute sounds. Stop. GO TO SLEEP. please?

Today was AWESOME

Today we worked on walk/canter transitions. K had worked with Syd on them on Tuesday so they were still fresh in his head. That and a liberal application of bribes (blackberries) and we did more canter transitions this morning then I think we've done ever. It was awesome. It was mostly easy. I wish I knew why. I did try Kate's suggestion and that seemed to help a little (feeling the change in your body before asking for it). We still have a long way to go but days like this, when riding is fun, make the rest totally worth it.

7 eleven is fucking with me

lots and lots of new bright lights. moved shelves. moved where items are. new cashier who's clean and smelled nice. freaky.
