Jesse, I hope that the party is amazing and I too am impressed with all of the work.
I give up. I don't want to own a house anymore. I fucking cash in my grown up card.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Yeah, his jockey is cool-headed.
You could see the jockey still holding I'll Have Another in coming around the last turn. The horse's head was up, so he wasn't giving him free rein. And then, boom! And he laid on the whip a little bit too.
Both of those horses showed a lot of heart.

Owning a house or not has very little impact on overall grown-up-ness either way, I think.
That was a helluva race. Thanks for the link, sumi!

-t probably not. I'm just giving up on all of it.
And we'll move out in 5 weeks.

I can understand hating everything, that sounds rough.

Kat,
I am completely empathetic and understanding of your position.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, Kat, I'm sorry. That all just sucks.
Bodemeister's jockey is Mike Smith, arguably the most experienced jockey out there. So for I'll Have Another's jockey to have been able to set up his horse so perfectly was a real feat.

To add:
I am understanding of Kat's position because I am completely overwhelmed with all I have to do to move by the end of July. I don't know W/H/WTF I am going to get all of this done and all of what I need to do is some writing projects I have to complete along with all the move bullshit.
BTW, I hate moving more than just about anything. I think I would rather deal with human beings' bodily fluids than moving.
Not. joking.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I missed the deleted post, but {{{Kat}}} anyway, on general principle; the responsibilities-and-big-decisions part of being a grown-up both suck and blow in the most undelightful way possible.
