May. 20th, 2014 01:22 pmI read this article the other day, started out hopeful, and ended up castigating myself for being less productive and interesting than the author was during their unmedicated low points.
Sometimes I think, maybe it would be better if something had happened to me recently. If I'd gone through a breakup, lost a job, lost a family member, been in a car accident, something. Anything. Maybe then it would be socially acceptable for me to feel this way all the time.

I rode Warrior Pony outside today, since the weather was lovely and the "footing" in the "outdoor" was relatively dry. At the end, I decided to see how she did with a little walk out in the hay field, and she was surprisingly calm. She tends to be a bit stupid about new things and since I am a giant weenie about riding out I am not exactly confidence-inspiring. I couldn't tell you why the hay field is different from the "outdoor," since the "outdoor" doesn't have a fence or anything, it's just closer to the barn, but mentally both the horses and I find it less intimidating than the fields.
She did nearly spin and bolt for the barn just after I took this, but I sat and made myself breathe and then she was willing to wait for me to decide we could turn and walk back. Good pony.
A Royal Affair Q&A

I took some photos of this impromptu Q&A session at the theater I work in ... clearly I need to upgrade my glass a bit for dark places. Autofocus would also be nice in situations such as this one. :/ Oh well, at least these few came out. :)

Here's the full set of photos I took yesterday! Not edited because I'm lazy and I did take a buttload of photos, but, enjoy!

(Last one I also really liked in color because of her pink shirt, but I also love the b&w)
Some of you will see this photo on the rss feed I made, but I'm SO proud of this photo that I wanted to share it with LJ at large. :)
One of my very oldest friends (I've known her and her twin since we were about a year and a half old) got married yesterday! Huge congrats to them both -- he's a wonderful guy and they will be very happy together.
They both are pro bike racers and did a cyclocross race in Fort Collins the day after the wedding, go figure. I think she wore a veil on her helmet. Wish I'd been able to go to THAT and take photos!

( mostly jousting pics tbqh )

This photo is objectively shitty (I got too excited about how fast this lens was when I was playing with it) but LOOK AT HOW CUTE THAT BEER IS.
