How to humiliate even the manliest of men

It evidently involves the braiding of hair. Who would think that Sly would be so unhappy with me for doing this to him? I know he does not like wearing braids, as he takes them right out on the rare occasion that I do them to try to get that crazy orange 'fro to lay down on one side. I just had no idea that he was actually embarrassed by them, but I am sure of it after tonight.This picture of him may look like a yawn, but I know he is giving me the finger. That or telling me to get out of his barn with that stinking camera. I know him like that. I actually thought he looked cute in them. He did not think so, no doubt about it. In case I did not get his feelings on the matter, he also stuck his tongue out at me. Look at the shame on his face here--isn't it awful? This is probably the first time in his life he avoided the camera instead of posing for it.

He is getting fat as a tick, like he always does going into the fall and winter. He could use something to do besides eating, which is his current occupation--that and terrorizing and being terrorized by Fonzie. The other day I watched Sly clamp down on Fonzie's withers with his teeth, and Fonzie would double barrel him in the chest. Neither of them were very committed to the game, and would do it while they were standing still--it was like they were in the habit of doing this and had no choice but to do it whether they were in the mood to or not. They have a very strange relationship, but it works for them so who am I to question it?

I guess while I am on this horse riding kick that I am on, he might as well get in the lineup as well. That will be fun, as I rarely do it, and always enjoy it when I do. Now that we are riding his babies, it will be cool to see if I feel the similarities in them all.
