OW.
I forgot what it was like to ride a horse with absolutely no brakes. Bandit's aren't great (most of the time... occasionally he surprises me with very good stopping) but Casper's are AWFUL.
My arm is so sore. So, so sore. It hurts to move my wrist in most directions. And some elbow movements hurt too. Ugh.
My butt hurts too. As do my legs. Riding Casper was just plain weird. It's always weird to ride a different horse, but most of the horses I JI on (Taz, Cody, Java, Chili) are built a bit more like Bandit than Casper is, plus I walk and trot more than I lope... even Rohan was easier to adjust to, and his gaits are so funky. Casper's just so tiny... It's going to take some serious getting used to.
And I have randomly appearing cuts on my hand... the one on my thumb is a fading scar now, the one on my ring finger is gradually healing, but there's a new one on the back of my hand... it's very strange. The one on my middle finger is my fault, I failed at cutting my bagel on Saturday morning and got my finger a bit. Oops.
And then there's the fact that my back is still all screwed up, and my knees are killing me...
I think I'll disintegrate before I'm 20.
