I didn’t spot Leap Day William today, and the craziest, out-of-the-ordinary thing I did was take an hour-long nap (although I did have an intense dream in which I witnessed Batman, in his full gear, sobbing hysterically as he sat on a bed looking through pictures of his dead parents- add that to my lengthy list of dreadful dreams as of late). However, I finished my group paper, bought some...

I skipped work this afternoon and went home today.

My dog mauled me the second I walked into the door. I made myself a huge lunch. I sat on the couch and watched one of my favorite old-school episodes of Arthur. I took a glorious nap in my own bed. I hugged both of my horses. I ate dinner. I cracked jokes with my Dad. I took a 20 minute shower and never ran out of hot water. Am I behind on my homework now? Yes. Was it worth it? Totally.

I just woke up from one of the worst nightmares...

It was one of those dreams that’s so awful, it will haunt me in 20 years. If I can manage to turn this day around, then give me a gold star. Fuck.

Call me crazy, call me callow, but I hate weekends...

The city makes me feel so claustrophobic. I walk out into the street and feel like the houses are closing in on me all around. There’s too many power lines, too many people, too many cars- too much clutter. The city is too complicated. I need the simplicity of open fields and dirt roads. I need space to roam, a horizon to watch the sun go down, and the darkness of the night. I need peace and...

I haven't had a good night's sleep in over a week...

I feel as though 90% of the time I’ve been in a miserable state of half asleep and half awake, and not sure which one I should fight for. It’s similar to being at a hotel and staying in the hot tub for far too long, and you’re roasting. So you begin to climb over the barrier that separates the hot tub from the swimming pool, but you realize that the pool water is as cold as fuck....

I MISS MY DASH OH GOD I DON'T KNOW HOW TO LIVE...

In other news, my mother just texted me and informed me that Charlie and I won the year-end high point award in Sport Horse Performance for Arabian Community Shows (which, I might add, is a national group). I’m pretty fucking jazzed right now.

For Lent, I'm giving up my Dashboard.

I was originally going to give up Tumblr completely. But then I realized that would be a silly thing to do, since I’ve been trying to write more often. It’s nice to put some of my words out into the world every now and then, rather than constantly hide all of them on my computer. So starting at midnight, for the next 40 days, I refuse to waste endless hours scrolling through my dash,...

Tonight, I ran. My mind cried out for help and my body responded in the best way that it could. This run was different from any other run I’ve been on. I didn’t plan it, like I usually do. I didn’t pencil it into my evening schedule, or pick out a playlist, or map a route. I returned home from work, quickly changed, laced up my shoes, and walked right back out the door. Rather than my typical...

Little Things

Yesterday, my day was made better by a two-page note buried deep within the clutter of my bedroom at home. This afternoon, my day was drastically improved by a tiny, one-word note in my coat pocket. And just now, I was wildly moved and inspired by a few different pieces of writing. Simple pieces on simple things. I can’t be sure, but I think I felt a wall within me come crashing down just...

Pierogis during dinner, paczkis for dessert.

I have never felt so Polish. I have also never felt so fat. But it’s all good, man.

Weekends where the weather is nice and the ground...

As an extremely depressed equestrian, I take it as a huge “fuck you” from mother nature.

For the most part, I take pride in the fact that I’m more of an “unconventional” lass. But then every now and then someone says something to me like “Mandy, I love that you’re so much like a guy.” And even though I know it was a compliment, it still makes me want to just melt into a puddle on the ground and lay there for cigarette butts and dead leaves to...
