I am awake far too early. My brain apparently requires a transition period between normal life and vacation sleep time.

"Who runs Toronto? Canadian geese or raccoons?" "Racoons are municipal. Geese are federal."

Officially ON VACATION!!! 🙌🍾🥂🏹🐴

I just need to make it through the work day without puking from anxiety and I'll be on vacation.

My feet and ankles are covered in midge bites. Here's my question: Every single time I have been outside so far this season, I have been wearing leather riding/paddock boots. HOW ARE THESE FUCKERS GETTING PAST LEATHER????

When all your arrows wanna go to the same spot

Just another 5 days Just another 5 days Just another 5 days Just another 5 days ........

Weirdly satisfying: when you start a riding lesson with a horse who doesn't want to listen to a single thing you ask her to do, but end it with her listening to every direction you give her.

The timeline from handcuffing opposing politicians for asking questions to straight up murdering them in their homes was a matter of days.

So yesterday I learned that the guys who came up with the theory behind the Dunning-Kruger effect were inspired by a guy who robbed 2 banks with his face covered in lemon juice, cause if lemon juice worked as invisible ink then it must make everything invisible. thefinanser.com/2024/03/the-...

Is it..... Is it actually going to... not rain this weekend? Am I actually going to experience a dry riding lesson tomorrow???

So glad this is the end of the week for me. 6 working days til vacation, including today 🙌

When you Robin Hood your own arrow after owning said arrows for less than a week 🤣

This is a poignant year to be observing Davis Day, not just because its the 100 yr anniversary, but bc of the decline in workers rights: AI, tech, return to office mandates, and the general decline of the social safety net. Solidarity, friends. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/William...

Suffering through the worst coffee of my life. We are out of coffee cream, out of sugar, we dont even have maple syrup. All I've got is milk. How do people drink this regularly?

"It's not you"

I have graduated from physio! No more continuing appointments, will only need to schedule if something flares up! It's only been 5 months 🤣

Make this go viral.

"Selfie Yacht"? Does that mean the Israeli army is going to start buzzing all those super yachts owned by billionaires currently in international waters with their drones as well?

I am so wiped out. Amd sunburned. 10/10 would do another 2 day mounted archery clinic... and will be doing another one! In September!

First day of archery clinic done; achievement unlocked - new bow and arrows acquired.
