Rodeo

I once went to a quasi-rodeo with my sister to watch one of her friends ride bulls. I remember being out of place there. But last night takes the cake!

For being a country girl for at least 18 years, I feel so out of it at a rodeo. Some events I can understand, but most I think are nuts. Its like extreme farming or something. Let's see how fast I can tie up a calf? let's see how can I get a horse to buck, then sit on him, and see if I can stay on? What the heck?

Half way through I calmly stated, This is out of my comfort zone! While for people that I see through DOOR are stunned at McDonald's on each block, not seeing only white people, or sleeping in a church - seeing a calf tied up is quite uncomfortable to me - funny, isn't it?
