When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I wanted to be a swashbuckler with an awesome horse that was sometimes a Pegasus (seriously better than a unicorn). This wish has never gone away! I still sometimes make up stories about our adventures, usually when I am our running.

In my daydreams we would fight bad guys, steal valuables, discover treasure, and defeat monsters (which sometimes became our friends and allies). More than once I imagined my daily run being me riding Dacha (my horse/pegasus) to a rendezvous or escaping enemies or delivering a vital message, then sprint for all I am worth the last quarter mile or so, so that I finish up gasping for breath and blurry visioned and drenched in sweat and it feels so awesome!!!

So, like I started this blog a year ago and was all super keen and stuff after some bad experiences on social media. They I had some negative experiences on here last summer and was dealing with stuff irl and just stopped posting. I had planned to let it just die after my subscription ran out. But well I’m going to give it another go. I don’t know how often I’ll post or what about, but I’ll figure that out later. I may even write up some of my swashbuckler adventures which only exist in my head right now.
