Episode 1: It's 6:31AM and I am STILL Awake!

So I've spent the past couple of hours talking to a friend on Skype. Our early morning conversations tend to get . . . interesting if you know what I mean. For example, she found out there are more than 30 types of vaginas (I told you this was weird) and decided to share that news (and pictures) with me. It's very interesting! We then spent a good 15-20 minutes talking about how we couldn't tell which we had (go figure).

Then we started talking about horses. Lately I've been wanting a horse. I really need a hobby that takes me outside of the home. Right now Tarot keeps me at home (unless I go out to Read). Piano, singing, songwriting, writing novels, and pretty much all my other hobbies keep me at home. Hell . . . even French-related things keep me at home! I need something to get me away from home so I don't have to worry 24/7 about everything else going on in my life (and when I'm at home all I do is think about my life).

A Gypsy Vanner Horse

I have also wanted a horse for years but now the want is stronger than ever. Another friend of mine has a horse and is showing him soon so it made me interested in horses more and thus . . . my passion for horses was born. I think most of the breeds are gorgeous. But, I must admit that my dream horse is a Gypsy Vanner. How beautiful would this horse be pulling a gypsy caravan? I can just see it now: I'm sitting in it with a table just waiting to do Tarot Readings and see into people's futures; a nice atmosphere for fortune telling! But of course that is all fantasy stuff! I do believe this is my dream breed, though!

But, for a beginner, I began to wonder: what is the best breed to start with? Well according to online sources, there really isn't a set of breeds perfect for beginners. Most suggest finding a horse that's at least a couple years old (some even say 10-12 years) that is already broken and is capable of doing what you'd like to do whether it be just pleasure driving, poles, barrel racing, or trailing.

A beautiful Paint Horse

I definitely want an athletic horse that is capable of doing poles, barrel racing, trailing, and so on but also isn't temperamental. I want to be able to do dressage and other events with the horse. I also want the horse to know some of these things. A new rider and horse that's new to being rode . . . just isn't a good match.

Of course I'm just dreaming here, but I realy hope to be able to afford a horse some day. I'm thinking about starting riding lessons soon just to be sure that this is something I want to do before I jump in and buy a horse. So be prepared for many posts on this!

But, right now, this is just what I'm blabbering on about at . . . 6:45 in the morning! What else do I have to do? Oh, right . . . sleep. Hmm . . . I could but what fun would that be? I mean, my random blog posts when I'm running on no sleep are probably the best (but also the ones that make no sense).

A strawberry crepe

Do you know what I want right now? A crepe. Not just any crepe; oh, no. A strawberry crepe! Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm! As a matter of fact, I was telling my friend just a few hours ago how I had 3 goals prsented to me today:

1. Eat a crepe.
2. Buy a horse.
3. Find out which type my vagina is.

Okay, okay, I understand this is a really weird post but so is my life. And I'm sure me being up at 6:52 in the morning with no sleep isn't exactly helping. Heck, I'll probably pass out soon and then wake up, not remembering a thing. Oh, trust me, it's happened. =P No, not in that kind of way!

So now I'm going to stop this post here and bid ye all a farewell. =] I hope my next post is a bit more sane . . . and classy (in other words no mention of vaginas). =]

Forever wanting a strawberry crepe,
Natasha <3
