My Handsome Husband (HH) has announced that he wants a cow costume -- just to have around the house, as a novelty.

He made this announcement while we are attending the Chick-Fil-A Bowl game. As you might imagine, those Chick-Fil-A cows were everywhere -- riding blimps, falling from the rafters with little parachutes, walking around FanFest while wearing team jerseys, and conducting the Pride of the Southland Marching Band.

As a city boy, HH is fascinated by cows, both real and imitation. I have a photo of him next to a Holstein the size of a New York City bus. Before we even met, one of the first photos I ever saw of him was with his father and a cow at a bowl game.

I suppose I should have known what I was getting into.

Weird Things I've Seen

This doesn't actually have anything to do with midlife, except where it has led me to see such things while driving around rural Kentucky.



I suppose they have to transport bronze statutes somehow. It's not like it's going to be damaged by the rain.




Even though I have been to many Georgia farms, I can honestly say I've never seen this done until coming to Kentucky.
