@jenwriter17 I think there are a couple of Women’s sidesaddle clubs in England.  Yes, I guess it’s a lot more dangerous than sitting astride, but of course women used to jump with sidesaddles all the time.  I’d love to go on an old fashioned fox hunt with a red riding coat and a side saddle.  It’s a Maryland thing, after all. 😉

Thanks, I hope so…[Read more]

@rochellaine Yes, I ride English. Horse shows can have English and Western classes in them, but rodeos are just for Western. Sidesaddle is pretty cool. I once read an article about a lady who jumped horse in a sidesaddle. O.O

Well I hope you get a sudden surge of inspiration and all those words in your head will flow out onto the paper (er, um, l…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Thanks.

Oh, cool.  I’d love to ride.  I’ve only ridden a couple of horses my entire life.  Is the horse show English style?  (Horse shows are English and rodeos are Western, right?) If I ever had a horse I’d want to have a sidesaddle. 😛

@rochellaine aw, I hope you’re feeling better soon. 🙁

I’m doing pretty well. pretty busy with preparing for a horse show I’m competing in next weekend and school and life stuff.

How’s your writing?

@jenwriter17 I’m doing okay.  A little sick from a cold I had yesterday, but getting better.  School…fine, I guess.  I’m a bit behind in my studies, but hope to catch up soon. 😉

How about you?

@rochellaine Yup. 🙂 How are you? How’s school?

@jenwriter17 Are you still here?

@rochellaine @seekjustice @alia @ariel-ashira @catwing @warrenltuher04 @dekreel @kaya-young @valtmy @daughteroftheking

I’m on again! Working on blog posts and outlining. 🙂

@daughteroftheking Thanks so much! 😀

signing off…I think I”ll be on tomorrow.

@rochellaine @warrenluther04 @seekjustice @alia @ariel-ashira @valtmy @catwing @kaya-young @dekreel  I’m here now, working on outlining, blog posts, and researching.

@rochellaine are you still here? I think I’ll be on in about an hour-ish.

@seekjustice @jenwriter17 @valtmy Is anyone around?  I’m working now.

@rochellaine @valtmy I need to go now. I’ll talk some other time 🙂

@seekjustice @valtmy And I do not drink beet juice or put pickled beets on my hamburgers.  I have them on salad.

I would not be averse to trying beets on hamburgers, though.  If I remember to do so I’ll let you know what I think.

@valtmy 😀 Food conversations are fascinating.

@valtmy

This is exactly what I mean. No one eats pickled beetroot on burgers excepting Australians.

@Valtmy

Yep, pretty much 😛

Here American food is categorised by MacDonalds, KFC and Hungry Jacks. None of which are particularly nice.

Having said that, its “Australianised” American because the burgers all have beetroot on them 😀

@valtmy Oh…have you ever been to an American “Chinese” restaurant?  (The fake kind.)

@valtmy But even American Asian restaurants are often “Americanized” and contain all fried and sugared food as well.  You’ve got to go to an authentic Asian restaurant to get good food. 😉

I prefer Italian, usually, or Middle Eastern.  What about you?
