Pheonix was good today and didn't try to kick my knuckle again when I was washing her! xd She was washed earlier by another member and she did kick, but the girl, Katie, whacked her on the neck (it wasn't hard, don't worry.) to make her stop and she actually listened. eek Then Gwyenn just didn't give a crap and just stood there, eating the sign on one of the posts she was tied to.
After that, everyone just sat around and laid with their cows while people were coming and petting the animals. I was laying down in the hay, next to Gwyenn (Phe. was eating, as always) and the other cow next to me, Itha (Abby, another member who gave me vol. 2 and 3 of DN Angel biggrin was laying on her cow too) when I was about to fall asleep while I was in the middle of reading the DN Angel Volume 2, (yes cows are that comfy) when some dude came up and took Abby and I's picture. I think he said it was going into a newspaper( I think the Courier Post ) I just was giving him a death glare since I was surprised. xd
After a bit, I went wandering around the fair until I got backto the barn and most of the members left, so I went to go lay next to Gwyenn again. Itha was up and eating so I decided that she wouldn't bug me. I was wrong. xd As soon as I was falling asleep again, Itha began licking my leg like it was a block of salt. I hate the feeling of a cow's tongue. (Think of the feeling of a cat's tongue, just more rough and wet.) She wouldn't stop either, and I Was pushing her away. After that she left me alone and once again I was petting my cow, when I feel something yanking the hair out of my head. xd Itha was chewing it again for the third time.
The little kids were the same as usual: mooing at the poor cows and calling them giraffes, horses, and once I even heard a kid calling a cow a unicorn xd .
This is what happened when I tried to give Pheonix a rinse off when a mother and her kid comes up to me:
Little girl: I wanna ride the horsey *points to Gwyenn*
Mother: Yes, I guess you can ride the horsey.
Me: evil *death glare* They are cows. (I was thinking no way in hell is someone getting on my cow)
Today was showing the pigs, which my leader's son and daughter were in. I have one question to about it: How the hell do you judge the pigs? I was watching with some of the other members and all the pigs were running around and fighting with each other. One of the pigs even had it's ear bleeding from a fight. It was weird, since pigs don't wear halters and they run around the whole showing area. The people showing have canes (or they can choose a whip) to make them walk around.
It looks like this:
Yea, so that's my day at the 4-H fair. Ashton and I began singing along to Grease music since we were had nothing to do after a while. People were staring at us like we were lunatics. I came home, and devoured some soup because I only ate a piece of funnel cake and a nutri grain bar earlier in the morining.
