Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

I absolutely hate talking about myself to strangers, but in the immortal words of my best friend, I'm "sucking it up." Or I will eventually. ;)

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

I grew up in a barn and never left it. Which is to say I teach horseback riding to small children and teenagers. I decided I wanted to work with horses when I was 9 (just like every other 9 year old girl) and never changed my mind. Despite the 14 hour days and lack of a regular schedule, I adore almost every minute of it.

Except in January. Snow and working outside are not a good combination.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food Propose an edit

Books: The Other Boylen Girl and anything else that can be tied to British history. Any kind of creepy mystery. Harry Potter.

Movies: I'm more likely to watch TV shows on repeat (Bones, How I Met Your Mother, Criminal Minds), but I love pretty much everything that Judd Apatow is involved in. And musicals. I watched musicals the way most small children watch Disney, and I still love them.

Music: In current heavy rotation on my mp3 player: Matt Nathanson, Jason Mraz, Tony Lucca, Josh Kelley. I also love pretty much anything country or bad 80s pop.

Food: Italian, anything with chocolate. I'm learning to like Mexican, but refuse to touch anything that once was living in water. Yes, I am from Baltimore and I do not eat crabs.

The six things I could never do without Propose an edit

1. My family/friends
2. My horses
3. Diet Coke
4. An mp3 player of some kind
5. Gorgeous sunshine-y days that make me forget about working in January
6. ?? I'm sure I'll think of something else, but the above are the basics.

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

Working late, and then weighing sleep vs. working Saturday exhausted. I'm going to have to admit that sleeping usually wins out. I'm much more likely to be out doing stuff on Saturday and Sunday nights.
