Horsin' around

Glxblt. Can hardly think straight anymore, and I have to actively try and focus my eyes to the screen, or else I can't make out the characters. I've had the most wonderful weekend, during which I have done things I don't want to even talk about, things that I would like to sing about, things that have made me glad, and things that have made me sad. I have found new things, rediscovered some old things, forgotten about some others, been reminded of some things, and reminded others of some others.

Just a few highlights:

  • Saturday morning breakfast
  • The discovery that yeah, blue can go with red if they are both striking enough and everybody else is wearing a tuxedo =)
  • You can't mix Black Cat with 4 other alcohol drinks and expect it to be good
  • Riding is good fun, but you need to have narrower boots than hiking boots, and tie down your trouser legs somehow
  • You can squeeze four games of Amplitude in the 20 minutes before the bus leaves, if you eat a lighter breakfast =)
  • DVD players are really cheap these days
  • Taxi trip from the west side of Vantaa to the east side costs 30€ (ouch)
    • Corollary, you can actually get a taxi by chasing one down, like a dog.
  • Avoiding branches can sometimes be difficult on horseback
  • Note to self: don't get daughters, only sons. Much, much cheaper.
  • The Two Towers, extended edition is a far better movie than the movie version; the pace is calmer.
  • Ground loops can occur within home environment, too.
  • My sight has not grown any worse during the past 8 years. Yay!

What about the wonderful accordion pop? You didn't miss it, now did you? Must I play it for you again?

I like *so* completely missed it, I was so deeply embedded in the wonderful discussions throughout the evening.

Thank you anyway, I am sad that I missed it this unique opportunity.

Note the stress on the word unique. OK?
