Barnyard Thoughts

Well if anyone has ever worked as a grass cutter or did any job that didn't really require a whole a lot of concentration, then we all have or had a lot of time to think about random things in our lives.  Be it bills we have to pay, the movie we just watched, or what we are planning to do on the upcoming weekend.  I work on a horse farm with 24 horses, I am 23 years old, going to college and doing things that don't require a whole lot of concentration.  Like mucking out stalls for instance, and seeing as I am the only one doing it all by my lonesome I have plenty of time to think.  A  couple of hours long in fact.  So, many things flit through my mind while I'm religiously shoveling horse manure every morning.  This blog is just a way for me to organize my thoughts, or get whatever I'm thinking about out of my mind or something like that.  Hopefully it will also improve my writing as well as my English, seeing as it's one of my worst subjects at the moment.  Like many other people, myself included, find that doing this is much more sane that yapping in mid air to yourself, waving your arms around like a fool making gestures, and actually trying your best to convince people that the mental institute they've picked out for you really isn't necessary.  My boss for instance.  So I hope that any of my morning random barnyard thoughts will encourage people, get them thinking, and will not make them mad too much or even insult them.
