• Damnedest thing happened. I quit blockbuster, and then my life gets INSANELY busy. And slowly I am turning into a cowboy. Let me explain. Since I quit blockbuster, I have been spending alot of time with training Nick, and alot of time working with the cows out at the 40(my dads land). So because of all the time I spend out there, slowly my way of clothing has switched over to cowboy boots and jeans and coats. and due to the fact that i am working directly with cows....and i AM a boy, i can assure you of that, i am becoming a cowboy. first story.

  The Calf

  Well we lost a calf a few days ago, it was a twin who the mother neglected, we found it near the barb wire fence. Another cow was born Tuesday before last, it has a bad eye, and I figure its lame. The mom wont claim it, well she did but she never hangs around it. Well about four, five days ago we found it just laying by itself. It wont get up. So we started nursing it with powdered milk, and we built a small shelter around it to protect it from the cold. Insulating it with hay and a big blanket, we returned for the next four days treating it with antibiotics, and more milk. Yesterday is when I figure it wasnt gonna last long. It wouldnt take the milk and would bleat weakly. Sure enough we arrived this morning, and she was gone. BUT THATS ALL IN THE LIFE OF A COWBOY! You gotta accept, your losses! Actually when we first found it laying there I told keith to put a bullet in its brain. lol. it exceeded my expectations on how long it was gonna live. Im gonna start a video diary on what i do out there and get it up on xanga. so im lookin forward to that.
