I will just come right out and say it… I fell in love…
While I was walking around making new friends, I spotted this little beauty. She was very shy. It took a while to coax her over to say hello.
And at first she wanted to stay at arm’s reach.
But I was patient.
And then I found the spot… the spot that most horses and dogs have… the spot that they love to be scratched… right between her ears…
After that, it was all love… that is the tip of my nose, over there on the left… horses, believe it or not, like it when you sniff them while they are sniffing you… just a tip…
Then we spent about ten minutes just nuzzling each other. She was the sweetest, nuzzeliest, snuggeliest horse I ever met. She liked to breathe softly into my ear. I could have stayed there all day.
Not bad for a selfie, huh? Except for the shadow of the phone. And yes, I have product in my hair… hey, don’t judge me… I was meeting new people. And one of them was a professional model.
Okay, here is the thing… and this is the kind of thing I love… but this horse…
My new best friend here… had a story of her own. When I finished getting to know her, I turned around and was surprised to find all the humans staring at me. So I walked over to find out what was up. It turns out that my new friend was a wild-born mustang. She isn’t saddle broken. She is still part wild. And nobody else had been able to get her to approach them on her own.
Hey, I am just that good.
Attention loyal minions! We are having a reunion on that post where we are trying to break the record for the most comments ever on a WordPress post, so it is time for you to get your lazy butts back to work!
In case you didn’t know, we have this post that has 31,416 comments on it… which may or may not be a record for a single post… but we can’t be sure, because according to WordPress, that is the one stat that they don’t keep track of…
But the beauty of our post is that it isn’t some crazy hate rant that went viral. It is a love fest. People do weird stuff there. We have fun. We write poems and have flirting contests and drunken reunions.
So, if you haven’t put a comment there, here is the link that will take you directly to the comment box: http://wp.me/p25PYJ-21u/#respond
I hope that link still works. If not, you can just click on the link over on the top side of my sidebar over there to the right. But then you have to wait while all those comments load.
Please join us. I am slating this entire weekend as a reunion. I hope some of the minions will be there. If you haven’t left a comment on this post yet, just do it. At the very least, you will become part of history and help us get to 50,000 comments one of these days. Or read some random sections of the comment threads… I guarantee it will blow your mind.
And you will meet some really cool bloggers. Feel free to pick random comments and reply to them, no matter how old they are… that is how this crazy thing works.
