Well, I feel left out now. Maya told me I was missing all the action - I've been running around the last couple days so haven't exactly been a good administrator... Oops. Anyways, I shall now introduce myself.
I'm Rainbow (that isn't my real name; my real name shall always remain a mystery... well, probably not). I've been playing a variety of sim horse games for over four years.
In real life, I've been riding for over three and a half years and have loved horses all my life. I have ridden hunters, western pleasure (very briefly), saddleseat (very briefly), jumpers, and am currently a dressage rider and proud of it. For the past year, I've been riding a 13.2hh Welsh Pony gelding named Danny (yes, I'm short. Can we deal with that and move on? Thank you!), but am now half-leasing a 10y/o Thoroughbred named Jamie from one of my good friends. She rides him hunters, but oh my god is that horse built for dressage. He's totally fun to ride and I can't wait to show him.
Aside from horses, I am an obsessive reader. Very obsessive. I'll read pretty much anything except really fluffy, extremely implausible romance. I also love music (anything from country to metal to jazz to... well, you get the idea) and play the piano and cello. I'm not world class, but I can usually play the right notes at the right times and sound somewhat musical. =P
I have two dogs - Bear is a 2y/o Standard Schnauzer who I've trained to jump (he can jump nearly 3' - he's a little jumping demon) and Hunter is an 8m/o black Lab who I will begin training to jump once she's a year old. I also have two cats - Marvel is a 4y/o black & white "tuxedo" Domestic Short Hair and Blue is a 1y/o Tonkinese (that's a cross between a Burmese and a Siamese). They're both lazy bums who are currently sleeping on my bed lol.
Hmm... I have a very odd, sarcastic sense of humour, which I shall apologise in advance for. I live outside of Chicago, Illinois. That's about it lol. Not a whole lot to say about me; I'm not the most interesting person.
