All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

The Gray Ghost Starter Handicap - that was run yesterday at the Meadowlands. (Couldn't find anything last night but found the most recent one posted today.)
Apparently, this is such a popular race that the tradition has been started up at a number of other race tracks.

Very cool. But Reigning Span wasn't gray! What's up with that?
They should have an all black horse race and call it Bats Out of Hell Handicap.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
crap. My makeover efforts have been thwarted by my hair color being completely wrong. Too light. I need a medium ash brown. This is way too light. I also cut five inches off my hair today.
I don't feel like me. Too much change, too fast.

Falling back... does that mean an extra hour of sleep? Mathiness is beyond me right now.
I just made Grace a dress out of a onesie and leftover polka dot sheeting.
It actually worked out and is super super cute. I wish I could find my die-cutter so I could die cut a shape and sew it onto the top of the onesie. But that means going into the garage and it's dark.

No, he was a gray horse - didn't you see the white in his tail?

Yep. More sleep in fall, less sleep in spring.

Well, as that article pointed out, more sleep only if my child observes the switch from DST to standard time. Which Noah hasn't mastered the art of time telling so I think I'm screwed.

Hec, not enough registered black TBs to fill a field.
(plenty that are probably genetically black, but registered as dark bay/brown)

Right.
In fact, one blogger posted that they tried to have an all gray race in harness racing but they couldn't field enough grays for the race to go.
True black in horses is much more unusual than you'd think. (Of course, if the Jockey Club would join the 21st century they could dna test for color. . . as well as other things.)
