I am getting used to this whole living in a barn thing, but there are...moments. Just now I realized I needed to refill the water tank in the RV, a task which is becoming routine enough that I don't even think about it much. Except when I open the barn door in the back to go turn on the faucet and manage to scare the shit out of the cow I didn't realize was standing right there. Which managed to startle the shit out of me.

So pretty much the cow jumped and kinda bolted off to one side, and I jumped and bolted off to the other side and we spent the next few minutes kinda panting and staring at each other like WTF ARE YOU DOING HERE? I fear the cow probably has more justification for its indignation than I do.

Is it spring yet? I think the cow and horses will be just as relieved as I am to no longer be sharing immediate space.

Oh, EUNICE. It's the interrupting cow!

*hugs*

Things will get better. And there will be awesome in your future.

(Have you caught up on White Collar?)

I am mostly being patient! And my eventual house will have one hell of a view. I should take pictures and post them. It is just the occasional surprise!cow that catches me off guard. Or surprise horse. Every now and then I will look out the window and one will be STARING AT ME. :D

Ooooh, White Collar. I still have a few episodes left on the discs you burned me I haven't watched yet. I should break those out :D

[tzikeh]

Ooooh - pictures! I'd love to see where you are. Right now it's totally nebulous in my head.

YAY White Collar! I know you're totally dealing with eight million other things, but I can't wait for the eventual OMG WHITE COLLAR post.

Let me know when you need the first part of second season; I can ship them right out to you. Just drop me your new address.

Water cow! Unexpected! (Have you ever watched the cartoon version of The Tick? Otherwise, that makes no sense. Or maybe it makes no sense even if you have. *g*) Glad you and the cow survived the experience!

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Ahahah! I suspect living in a barn is one of those things that sounds romantic but is anything but in reality. :)

I once had a similar encounter with a cow (well a water buffalo) trying to make my way to the toilet block in the middle of the night on an island in Thailand. I had lost my torch and was squinting into the night when I realised I was actually really squinting into the eyes/horns of a beastie! My beastie was pretty unfazed though. I guess he was used to wayward tourists.

It would be more awesome if I wasn't having to constantly vacuum up/brush off sawdust. I have such a hate on for sawdust now.

Hee, jaded water buffalo. You know he went back to his buds and was all, *sigh* 'another one'

OMG. I laughed... SO... hard.

I fear the cow probably has more justification for its indignation than I do.
