altivoAnother deluge hit at about 4:45 this afternoon, just as I was doing barn chores and trying to get everyone fed. Tonight's forecast? 90% chance of thunderstorms, and we have a watch. Tomorrow's? 70% chance of heavy rain.

songdogmi, who didn't tag anyone so neither will I.
Instructions: Each player starts with 7 random habits/facts about themselves. People who are tagged need to write on their own blog about their 7 things, as well as these rules. At the end of your blog, you need to choose 7 people to get tagged and list their names.
1. I am an early riser, almost always up by about 5 am. I don't like to sleep late, never have.
2. I'm just literate enough to be dangerous in a selection of (mostly dead) languages: Classical Greek, French, Anglo-Saxon, Middle English, Sanskrit, German, Old Irish, Latin.
3. I like traditional poetry, but don't try to write it. (For example, Hardy, Tennyson, Longfellow, Shakespeare, Dickinson, Frost, or Housman.)
4. I was first aware of my furry tendencies when I was six or seven years old, though I didn't know there were others like myself until much, much later. I first acted them out in public when I had the role of Benjamin the donkey in a stage version of George Orwell's Animal Farm at age 30.
5. On the other hand, I didn't really know I was gay until I was 24 years old. While I'm perfectly comfortable with that, I've never quite figured out how to "be gay."
6. I love large, friendly dogs, and large friendly cats almost as much as I love large friendly horses.
7. I am really, seriously offended and irritated by junk telephone calls. I think the people who make them for a living are rude morons. I think the people who profit from them are criminals.
I need an icon for wet horse. I'll bet there's an image of the cartoon Altivo that looks that way. (Found one.)
