Horse People Are Weird: February 2010
http://horsepeopleareweird.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Horse People Are Weird. Most of us are proud of it! Wednesday, February 24, 2010. After my rather depressing post on Monday, I needed to get back to my "happy place", which of course is almost always with my horse. Are you ready for some good news? I have it on VERY good authority that spring is on the way! Who is this visionary, this oracle, this meteorological genius? That just does not make sense! No, the season of vernal warmth has to be on its way - and soon. I need to be outside more! NOTE: Apologi...

Horse People Are Weird. Most of us are proud of it! Tuesday, April 27, 2010. The past few weeks have been quite full and exciting, in both bad and good ways. Things are slowly returning to "normal" (is there such a thing in the horse world? And I am so pleased to finally be able to write today's post containing the Best News Ever. After nearly five years of searching, I have finally connected with the lady who bred Legs! A sketchy one time back yard breeder type? Who was this person? Was she still around?

Horse People Are Weird. Most of us are proud of it! Sunday, May 23, 2010. Excerpt from an actual phone conversation yesterday with my non-horsey friend JJ. Please note that JJ lives in the "big city" an hour away from my house, and that the restaurant in question is famous for its passion fruit mimosas. Translation - "brunch" becomes an all day event. JJ: "What's up, lady? Me: "Whole lot of nothing.". JJ: "Let me guess, you're at the barn.". JJ: "Yes you are! JJ: (laughing) "I knew it! May 25, 2010 at 9:...

Horse People Are Weird: "E" is for Envy
http://horsepeopleareweird.blogspot.com/2010/05/e-is-for-envy.html
Horse People Are Weird. Most of us are proud of it! Friday, May 14, 2010. E" is for Envy. A few weekends ago I, like a good daughter should, made the quick trip down the mountain to see Mom and Dad. The timing of the trip was necessary for a few reasons:. Mother's Day was coming up, but Mom had plans that weekend - her first big "away" ride since breaking her leg. Hey, it's her holiday - if that's how she wants to spend it, more power to her! Small price to pay I guess.). You can tell a lot about a perso...

Horse People Are Weird. Most of us are proud of it! Wednesday, May 26, 2010. Pop Culture and the Weirdo's One-Track Mind. It's Wednesday morning and I'm not really feeling like myself today. I feel a little."Lost". For those of you who did not follow the infuriatingly addictive phenomenon that was Lost, six years of torture came to an end with the finale this past Sunday. Well, sort of. WTF was the purpose of, and what happened to, Kate's horse. Eight years of marriage and sometimes I do still wonder how...

Horse People Are Weird: April 2010
http://horsepeopleareweird.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Horse People Are Weird. Most of us are proud of it! Friday, April 30, 2010. I Found Her - Part III, or What She Told Me. It became obvious very quickly that I had on the line a woman who was passionate about thoroughbreds and racing. With an encyclopedic knowledge of bloodlines, her recall was truly awe-inspiring. On any other day, I would have been content to just listen to her rattle off race records and track stories but I was after something specific, and she was happy to oblige. He's going to run!

Horse People Are Weird: Attention OTTB Owners!
http://horsepeopleareweird.blogspot.com/2010/05/attention-ottb-owners.html
Horse People Are Weird. Most of us are proud of it! Thursday, May 20, 2010. Little help, please? I'm embarking on a new side-project, and would like to interview some OTTB owners about their horses' careers after the track. While I'm certainly interested in stories involving a second competitive career (show jumping, dressage, eventing, etc.) I would really like to hear about horses who have gone on to serve roles that most people would not traditionally associate with an ex-racer, such as:. Please send ...
