 | You have two small bags packed and your horse has a trunk of clothes and half
a pickup load of equipment. |
 | You run a comb through your hair once in a weekend and call it good and then
spend 2 hours a day banding your horse's mane and combing out his tail. |
 | Your horse smells better than you. |
 | Your horse dresses better than you. |
 | Your horse eats better than you. |
 | Your horse gets more sleep than you. |
 | People know your horse's name, his parents' names, his show record, etc, but
all they know about you is "Aren't you the person who owns (insert your horse's
name)?". |
 | You spend hundreds of dollars on shavings, stall rent, entry fees, etc. and
then can't decide whether you should buy a large or small lemonade for yourself. |
 | You have a pocket calculator in your back pocket to figure points. |
 | You can sprain your ankle, break 3 fingernails, get a mild concussion, sprain
your back, have someone back into your truck, get food poisoning, heatstroke,
sunburn, lose your dog, lose your kid, and still call it a successful weekend
because your horse won his class. |
