...because every time I see them I fall in love with them all over again, and I want to have them again. And that sucks because I can afford neither the time, nor the energy, nor, of course, the money to venture down that road.
We were out at a family friend's farm for grandpa's birthday party and they had a two-week-old colt named Thunder.
"Hello, giant nose!"
Unrelated to horses, but: Harmzie & the BILs (and, well, Max, because he's not my BIL). They made a whirlwind trip in from Calgary for the occasion.
Try a donkey. They're not nearly as expensive and/or time consuming but they are incredibly cute and guaranteed to bring giant sunshiney smiles to everyone's face. And also you can make a lot of lame jokes about your ass. Heh.
ReplyDeleteI want a horse too. I have this fantasy world where I become rich, but still live a simple life on a farm. However, in this fantasy I am rich enough to have someone else get up at the asscrack of dawn and take care of the animals and I just wander around and pet them.
ReplyDeleteSome of our neighbours have horses in their front and back yards.
ReplyDeleteI have a massive love-on for horses, too. I think it was Tom Robbins who said girls always like horseback riding because it's equivalent to "above the covers" masturbation.
ReplyDeleteI can never decide if that's funny as hell or ridiculously insulting.
