Horse Person When….
- 1- For every 10 sets of new shoes your horse gets, you get maybe one.
- 2- You are totally grossed out by human hair in the sink or tub, but don’t mind horse hair in your washer, on your clothes, or in your food.
- 3- You can’t imagine why anyone would think it kinky to own whips and spurs.
- 4- You are unreasonably pleased to get a horse item, ANY horse item, as a gift. “They really cared!!!”
- 5- You drive by ANY field ANYWHERE and look very hard for horses.
- 6- You lunge your dog and notice that he/she listens to you better.
- 7- Your truck looks like a tack-shop bomb exploded in it.
- 8- If you have ever seriously freaked out a ‘non-horsey’ friend with an A.I. breeding conversation over your cell phone with the stallion owner.
- 9- On rainy days, you organize the tack room, not the house.
- 10- You stop channel surfing at Budweiser Clydesdale commercials.
- 11- You say “whoa” to your truck/car.
- 12- You’ll let your trainer get after you all day, but will cut off your boss’ head if he looks at you funny.
- 13- You choose which clothes to buy on the basis of whether you can wash horse slobber/manure out of them and if hay or sawdust will stick to them.
- 14- You use baling twine to repair non-horse-related things.
- 15- Your trainer and vet are the only non-family on your speed-dial.
- 16- You’ve ever commented on your barn cat loping on the wrong lead.
- 17- Your doctor doesn’t bother to ask how you got hurt anymore.
- 18- The ONLY pictures in your office are of your horses.
- 19- You go on a diet, not to be more attractive, but to be a better rider.
- 20- And finally, you know you’re a horse person if you answered “yes” to even ONE of these!
I know these can be kind of stupid, but this one actually made me smile…
Hope everyone had a good Memorial Day weekend!!
