Major freak-out (a good one)

...This has been an interesting experience. So I knew that I really, really wanted to keep riding. But since I also knew that paying for it would be troublesome or just not possible, I kind of figured that if I had to, I could wait a semester.

Only when I just got the email that my first lesson is this Friday....well. I was REALLY FUCKING HAPPY. Uncontrollably so. I could feel my heart going THUMPITY WHUMPITY THUMP. Which, you know, hearts don't usually do.

My conclusion: I couldn't give this up. I can't. Not happening. I can live without a television, without my family, without privacy or personal space. I can't live without the Internet, and I can't live without horses. And if it came down to it, I'd easily pick the latter.

I'm kind of proud of myself, and also damn lucky, because I've had something to love for all these years.
