Life time warranty

Co-worker: My spine did not come with a lifetime warranty.

Me: My knee, back and ankles didn't come with one either and was made worse by horses.

Co-worker: Why still ride?

Me: Might as well get my money's worth out of my joints.

Co-worker: Horse people are weird.

Me: Yes, we know.

I know you'll never look at me the same way you look at your horse and honestly, I'm ok with my only competition being a horse

A boyfriend I overheard at the barn today.

“Well I haven’t been thrown in a while. I was due.”

“Has he met your horse yet?”

“No”

“Oh so you’re not that serious”

Adventures of moving barns...

*Looking at new barn*

Me: So he can't be next to mares or he'll squeal and kick the crap out of the stall.

Barn manager: Ok, no problem

*Day of move in, his new stall is next to a mare*

Me: Hey, remember he can't be next to a mare...

Barn manager: Oh well, she isn't super moody it should be fine we'll try it.

*two weeks later*

Barn manager: Yeah so, he kicked the crap out of the stall so we moved him.

Me: Did I not...did I not say... *facepalm*
