job hazard

i took my class on a field trip yesterday. we went to our farm up in the mountains and everything went beautifully until i just had to ask if they wanted to ride horses. so one by one, they rode the horses. then came dani's turn. she's a beautiful, sweet and charming little 5 year old whom i adore. but she's a little on the heavy side. i lift her up to get on the horse but she's really too heavy for me to get on to the saddle. her legs fall a little short and she accidentally kicks the horse. i'm unable to get out of the way in time and end up getting kicked by the horse about 2 cm above my knee cap. we both fall to ground and thank God nothing happened to her. i, on the other hand, am probably going to hobbling for a while and high on painkillers since it was a pretty bad bruise. i have a freekin hoof mark on my leg.

i should get job hazard pay.
