I got bit by a horse today.
I know, I know. 'Emily, you live in New York City'. 'Emily, where did you find a horse?'. Natural thoughts. But there, on the corner of Broadway and Bleeker (two famous, VERY New York streets which is not a natural horse habitat), on my way to help Emily G. dye 130 shirts for the impending Relay for Life, I saw 2 policemen on their horses just straight chillin', and I, the animal lover went over to say hi. 2 more horses joined us, overcome with temptation I asked the cop closest to me if I could say hi, he obliges, the horse obliges and is nice to me and my scratches. Then he nudges me, and then CHOMP.
Okay, it wasn't a chomp. There was no blood, and I have a very minor scratch where the tooth grazed my finger.
But that's what happened in my little world today.

also, apparently while I was at Emily's for 5 or more hours dyeing t-shirts in her bathtub, it rained. And as I walked from the subway to my apartment, I realized it smelled like summer rain.
And there aren't words for how much I love that smell.
