I Made Out With a Horse
Thursday, July 31, 2008

I was never one of those girls who went through the horse stage, you know, that time in a young girls life when she gets crushes on horses and does a lot of horseback riding to relieve, uh, the tension of impending puberty. In my house, that was what latenight Skinamax and HBO were for. So as an adult, I wondered if I had missed a pivitol rite of passage. So I found a horse and kissed it. And it was great.


This is a Shire draught horse that is stabled at the beautiful Ranch Los Alamitos Historic Ranch & Gardens where my husband and I did a walking tour of the grounds, house and stables. They also have a pair of miniature horses but this horse was amazing because it was HUGE.

I have a draught horse in Arizona at my dad's house. Her name is Reba and she's a huge bitch...but I love her.

Oh ... So I guess kissing me won't really be too, too bad. And if it helps ... if you heard my voice you'd realize I'm a little hoarse.
