You would make a great sheepherder #2, Becky, altho I don't sense your heart's in the role. Perhaps if we switch out the blue heelers with huskies? Huskies are great-they run really fast, altho they have a tendency to eat the sheep, not tend them (not wut yr supposed to do). I know, my husky's always running after small deer (I'll post a pic later). But just to make sure, (and, too, because I feel like I'm doing a bit of cradle-robbing, tho it wouldn't be the 1st time) I am reposting my casting call--the one that got buried under all those puppy pictures:
Calling all talented performers who have a taste for the rustic life (it's a sweet life!). Friend, can you sit on a horse amid thousands of woolies? Speak a line or two of Spanish to be repeated verbatim in English? If you don't know Spanish, that's okay, I don't know it either. Would you be okay with wearing a serape? In attractive shades of blue and brown? Other pluses, year-round tan. I know how to cook and am handy with a can opener too! We could have dibs on the sunny side of Brokeback Mountain. I promise not to play the harmonica, just a little quiet strumming on the guitar. Tequila provided on shares from free flowing spring. You don't have to do my laundry. In fact, we would trade off on chores and herding/tending, being the bottom and the top, everything!!
