I’m trying to create a list of recently-updated blogs. Eventually, this would be for Horse Bloggers, but for now I’m just playing.

I am beginning to suspect that hoses, like horses, can sense fear.

In my case, I’ve never met a hose I couldn’t tangle. Someone else puts it neatly away. I pull it out in one long, straight, even line and use it. I go to reel it back up and spend twenty minutes flipping it around and cursing its twisted, tangled nature.

Speaking of internet craziness… this post is not horse-related. It’s just one more reason why I find it so, so hard to understand the magical, mystical numerology folks. Their logic, it’s lacking.

MiKael tagged me with the “When I’m a Famous Rider, I’ll Demand...” meme. The only problem: I don’t feel very demanding right now. I mean, my list begins and ends with “my own horse.”
