You Know You're a
Horse Lover When… |
|
|
*If you examine every piece of rope or twine for its halter
potential. |
|
|
*If you think a great vacation is spending a long weekend
in front of a horse trailer by a dusty arena. |
|
|
*If you take someone's temperature and think 102°F is normal.
|
|
|
*If you spend more money on horseshoes than your own shoes. |
|
|
*If you always keep carrots, apples, and sugar cubes in your
refrigerator. |
|
|
*If you spend more time at the feed store than the grocery store.
|
|
|
*If you cringe at paying five bucks for lunch, but won't
blink at twenty or thirty spent on a riding lesson. |
|
|
*If mucking stalls is more appealing to you than doing housework or
homework. |
|
|
*If your room looks like a tornado hit, but you make sure your horse's
stall is spotless. |
|
|
*If you give up heat in your house to afford your horse's
blanket and heated water |
|
|
*If every time you go to the mall, you search through every store for
horse items… (if only those product
designers knew the money they could make) |
|
|
*If you buy a bumper sticker saying "I'd rather be riding", when you
don't own a car. |
|
|
*If every time you go to watch a movie, you ask, "Are there
horses in it?" |
|
|
*If every time you go to BLOCKBUSTER, you head for the kid's/ family
section because it's most likely to have
horse videos. |
|
|
*If you will read an entire magazine about horse physiology, but hate
biology. |
|
|
*If when at the grocery store, you determine to buy carrots
and apples… for the horses at the barn. |
|
|
*If you refuse to shovel snow, but gladly shovel stalls. |
|
|
|
*If at any time in your life, you set up jumps in the backyard and
walked the course. |
|
|
*If, instead of skipping, you "canter". |
|
|
*If you take it as a compliment when people relate your
hair to a horse tail. |
|
|
*If you will volunteer hours of time at the local barn, but
whine when your parent asks you to take out the garbage. |
|
|
*If you will memorize dozens of horses names and their matching saddle
letters, but have trouble remembering ten vocab words. |
|
|
*If you will memorize a complete dressage test,
but can't
remember three important names for your history test. |
|
|
*If your doodles are always horses, and you are the best at drawing them
in your art class. |
|
|
*If you braid your horse's hair perfectly but can’t do a
thing with your own. |
