cows make a helluva lotta noise while in labor. and they produce a wee calf (okay, pretty damn big) and a LOT of afterbirth. They proceed to eat the afterbirth (as most mammals do) slowly but steadily, picking up the huge mass to separate it from time to time. Watching this does wonders for easing my own appetite.

it's windy enough to keep the kite aloft today. :)

note to self: when playing evil weedwhacker goddess of d00m in the backyard, wear long pants. you know you're horribly allergic to grass and even after showering, soaping one's legs down, and then taking an antihistamine, you will STILL itch like mad.

gah, this itchiness is driving me mad. and the hair on my legs is drying, so it's moving a little, tickling and compounding the itch.

going mad.

m'uncle raised black angus for years...beautiful cattle, they are.

i miss living in the country...this city livin' thing is something that i'm not sure i'll *ever* get used to...though chris informs me that this is *rural* compared to downtown boston...i'll agree...it may be rural (ha!)...but hardly agrarian.
