@seekjustice, @jenwriter17, @valtmy, anyone on?

@catwing I ride English, and occasionally riding Western feels really weird. 😉

I hope to have a horse one day too! 😀 What breed do you like? I really like thoroughbreds and quarter horses.

@seekjustice Okay, goodnight!  Talk do you soon. 🙂

@seekjustice Yes, that does make it interesting, and as you say, maddening. 😛  What I honestly thought, was that she would kidnap the other girl or something, and go behind the door herself, because then the law would be applicable to her as well.  I guess the probably wouldn’t hold the ceremony without her, though.  It just seems like that wo…[Read more]

@seekjustice Which would you choose? 😛 It’s actually easy if you realize what true love is, right?  I mean, wouldn’t it obviously be better for him to live, even though married to someone else, than die a horrible death?  Sounds like she had a pretty selfish love if there was even a consideration of showing him the wrong door.  What do you th…[Read more]

@seekjustice Hm, I seem to recognize the name.  I think I may have heard of him before.  I’ll have to look him up.

And you should definitely look up Paul Washer.  He’s amazing, and very passionate.

Ah, haha!  I was thinking that would be the one you would like. 😛  I’m not sure which one I like best.  I just watched on YouTube the American Playh…[Read more]

@seekjustice Cool!  Who’s the speaker?  My favorite is Paul Washer, but though he’s famous among us U.S. homeschoolers, I don’t think you’ve heard of him. 😛

Aaand, I probably haven’t heard of your speaker either, but…tell me anyway? 😉

@seekjustice Hey, are you still awake?  I’m here now. 🙂

The soundtrack I was listening to was from a musical called The Apple Tree.  Ever heard of it?

@seekjustice Oh, wow!!  Please send it over!  I don’t know how much I’ll read tonight, since I’ve got to get up around 5:30 tomorrow, but I might read it tomorrow in the car or something.  (My dad’s speaking at a church a few hours away, so we’ve got to leave by 6:30.)

I listened to a new soundtrack today… 😉

@rochellaine yeah that was Gideon that said that. 😀 that was funny!

@jenwriter17 Oh, I love Gideon too!!  He’s adorable.  So cute, especially when he…uh…every scene… 😛  But I love it when he dances with Milly in the “Goin’ Courtin'” scene.  And when he says “nice night for coon huntin'” as a “sweet thing.” 😛 (that was him, right?  It’s been a while.)

That actor is one of my favorite actors as well.  Funny…[Read more]

@valtmy Sorry, I went to sleep early last night, so I’m replying now. 🙂

Ah, haha.  Now that I put you through all the trouble of explaining I suddenly remembered that SeekJustice put a big backstory scene in with Maria in the second draft. 😛  I think she’s already thought through all those issues and will fix them as she finishes the second d…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 I rode English before I moved last year, but now I ride Western. It’s different. 😉 There were a lot of months in between moving and finding this place. I think I’m back though.
And we don’t just learn riding, we learn about the horses so that’s fun. (Since I hope to have a horse some day)

@catwing Glad it went well. Sorry about the sunburn and things though. 🙁

Do you ride western or english? I ride english, and jump some too. 🙂

@rochellaine Oh yes, I love his voice! I really like deep voices. 🙂

I really like “Bless Yore Beautiful Hide” too. Maybe that’s my favorite 😉

I also liked Gideon, forgot to mention him.

@jenwriter17 Oh, I do too!  Jane Powell, (Milly,) is one of my absolute favorite female singers.  Possibly my favorite, but I never can decide… 😛

My favorite song is probably “Bless Yore Beautiful Hide.”  (What do you think of Howard Keel’s voice?  It’s really deep and cool sounding, isn’t it?  Or do you prefer tenors?)  But all the songs are amazing.

@Daughteroftheking @jenwriter17
It went pretty well, not perfect but we made it. At one point some people were cheering the name of our club (they did this for everyone as they passed them) which has the name of one of the horses in it, so he kinda backed up and spooked a little bit. They stopped then so everyone was fine. 🙂
Basically it was fun…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I really like Millie! A favorite song…that…that will take some time to decide. 😉

@valtmy I have never fully read Les Mis, actually.  I’ve skimmed it and read parts of it, and read the synopsis several times, so I know a lot of the story, but I would say I could probably give a pretty near perspective of a reader who hasn’t read Les Mis. 😉  What “contrived resolution” are you referring to?  Because you mentioned several th…[Read more]
