Oh, man, I totally saw Gryffindor here. Your book answer is what really roped me in, your desire to read about the struggle between good and evil, the assortment of different people coming together to survive. You have this enthusiasm, this sense of fun underlaid with seriousness. The aside about getting thrown off the horse (which didn't seem to be that big of a deal to you) clinched it for me.
Yes! Jayne's hat is love! I hope they sneak it into the Serenity movie somehow ;)
Heh the thing about falling off though...anyone who rides horses for a long period of time has to learn not to worry about the fall. It happens. It'll probably hurt, but if this is the sport you choose, its inevitable. Its what ya get for riding an animal with a mind of its own that can't understand your own. [/spiel]
And now...i have the urge to make some Firefly icons...
That's true, but choosing to do something that is going to involve a fair number of bumps and bruises and failures says something in itself.
I never really rode seriously, but when I took lessons, I was always the one who ended up on the back of the horse who decided now was a good time to get into a fight. A little excitement never hurt, right? Except when it did. ;)
Heh, i've got a very...unpreditable horse. A flock of pigeons will all of a sudden come swooping at us from above, scaring the crap out of me, horse doesn't flinch.
But if a lady walks by with a dog...my horse says "OMGWTFPOODLE!!" and tries to run the other way. I've gotten used to it...but geez. Have to say though, she never leaves me feeling bored ;)
Also - icon love!

My dog's crazy with the pigeons, as well. They all know about dogs around here, though, and fly away, foiling Max yet again.
