27. You know you're an equestrian when....(list five things)

1. Your car has a back seat. And a trunk. And you still have to mound your groceries up in the shotgun seat because your car is a rolling tack room.

(My car may or may not have 200 lbs of feed and various rolling tack room supplies (SMBS, saddle pads, a full set of standing bandages and wraps, a bare back pad, full back on track blanket set, hose, 200lbs of feed, other various horsey snacks...) in it currently... and absolutely no back seat.)

2. Whips and spurs excite you. And saddle pads. And polo wraps...

3. You make it clear to your SO or any potential SO's that you like your horses more than him/her. And you mean it. Meeting my horses is much tougher than meeting my family, and will impact the way I see you for the rest of eternity.

4. Your life revolves around your showing schedule, your conditioning schedule and barn time.

5.  You hand mix your horses' carefully crafted mix of feed but can hardly be bothered to scrape together a simulacrum of a meal at home for yourself.
