Oooh wow. It's been... almost 8 years for me I guess. But I'd love to do it. If only I could get my hubby to do it. He doesn't really have any interest in riding them. *whisper, whisper* I think he's a little scared to ride them. *shrugs*

I love horses.
I would love to start riding them again.

Aw that's too bad.
I know people can be fearful around them.

Me too. There is even a place to ride on the way to work and I still never went :( Whenever I had time off I was always camping or something else.

Horses are really sensetive to that. Some of them will profit it too, you gotta be careful. But they are great. I want to just get some apples and stop by and feed them to them. There are always deer in the fence with them too ^^ It's pretty neat

My sister worked in a stable for awhile and I never got up there to ride the horses.

Yeah they can be really sensitive.
I love to feed horses and goats.

We used to have goats ^^ They all had names that started with "J" and there were like 20 of them at one point! my mom still remembers all the names but I don't really. I have a picture of them all laying around my jeep because I parked it in the shade of thise really big tree and they were trying to get some shade too. I think I have that picture somewhere... It's really cute actually ^^

Aw that sounds cute. ^^

My husband has a dislike for animals larger than him...he never liked the llamas when my parents had them and says he doesn't like horses. I can understand though, as they tend to be easy to spook, and if you're not careful when you go around their back end they can kick....

I'm gonna go look for the picture.. be right back :P

Ok, Zephi see you in a bit.

I can understand that Izumi.
My aunt had her jaw shattered when a horse kicked her in the face.

edit: I'm going to go get something to eat from town.
Be back later

Here it is :D The picture ^^



I can understand why people are scared of animals bigger than them. It's daunting. Feeling smaller than something and not able to stop it from doing what it wants... But I've always had good experiences with horses :heart:

Ohhh ouch, Lil. That would hurt so much.... :cry:

No kidding. My mom almost had her face kicked in by a little calf we had and were trying to tag. But she ended up getting a black eye. Try explaining that at work!

Oh jeez...I've broken my middle finger one night because I tried to shield myself with my hand from a ramming. It hurt like HELL. I was balling, and I called in sick for work, lets put it that way.

Hmm.. I haven't broken any fingers and the only thing that I have ever broken really was my little toe on my left foot. I was being dumb when I was drinking and decided to wrestle in the hallway, well the dude stomped on my toe when I was wearing sandals and SNAP! Broken :( It wasn't fun but I didn't really feel it til te next day cuz I was drinking... O_o

That's a cute picture Zephi.

The only thing I've ever broken was my collar bone and that was when I was little and fell out of bed Christmas morning.
Dislocated my knee really bad once.

My hubby broke his clavicle playing flag football once in high school. The teacher didn't beleive him thought because he was laughing when he said he thought that he broke it. The teacher was like, no if you broke it you'd be crying right now. But he has a really high tollerance to pain. He broke his wrist once and didnt want to go to the doctor right away so he waited almost a week to get it looked at. By then the bones were growing back funny so it had to be broken again. They did it right there with no pain meds. He was just looking at the nurse the whole time and freaked her out because he didn't even flinch when they re-broke it O_O He's too hardcore. lol

Wow, he should get that stuff taken care of right away.

That kind of happened to my cousin. He broke his arm skateboarding and it took them over 24 hours to get in to the hospital. It had started healing and they had to rebreak it.

yeah but he's a guy >.> I didn't know him back then but I'm sure that if he broke something now he would do the same thing. I know when we met he had some cracked ribs because he tried to break up a fight and took a hit in the process. Not much that you can do for some cracked ribs though.. just rest...

ow, makes me glad I'm a wuss.

Haha! I'd like to think that I'm not a wuss but I'd definitely be crying if I got hurt. lol... So I am kinda :P

i'm watching RAW nature on animal planet right now. They are trying to film komodo dragons and see how they live. I wanna do that. Why can't I be a nature specialist!? I think I know a lot about animals *pout*

I actually don't cry but instead start babbling.

I've watched a few shows about komodo dragons. They are really interesting.

Now it just finished with a part about sloth bears in India. How people take a hot iron and put it through their nose and then put a ring in it and tie a rope around them to make them dance in pain and they don't get fed much so they are starving. Poor bears. How could they do something like that. But this guy rescues them and rehabilitates them. That's really great. Good people make me cry tears of joy. Help the poor animals!!

How could they do something like that to a cutie like this??
