Horses and Divorces
I don’t know if you’ve heard the humorous song, “Horses and Divorces” by Slaid Cleaves but it sounds like the story of my life right down to the name, Willie and the short cigar and one last match. I never owned a thoroughbred, yet, but I have owned some harness horses. The thing I liked about the harness horses was, they were fairly calm and I could drive them. When I say I could drive them I should clarify that I am not much of a horseman or driver, but did like driving them.
I’ve also driven Percherons, those big draft horses, and really enjoyed that, too.
Right now I don’t own any horses and that is bothering me. I also don’t have a wife or sweetheart and I think my family and friends would agree that considering my track record, that isn’t such a bad thing. I imagine they cringe everytime they see an email from me or hear the phone ring thinking to themselves, “Oh no, what has Willie been up to now?” Can’t say that I blame them considering the latest episode with the redhead and the law. But despite my ups and downs I still miss them and woke up this morning feeling lonely so I thought I’d post a picture of myself and one of my sweethearts in happier times…
