I haven't read all 7 pages of responses, and with as much to read as the thread offers, I doubt my post will be considered, but I talk to myself often, anyway...

OP: you seem like a parent who...

I wear half chaps, paddock boots, and either pajama or sweat pants. Jeans rub too much for me.

I use boots or polos, and typically stick with the same bit and bridle.

It's better to be a loser than a looser, because nobody knows what the hell a looser is.

Be careful. If you run a fever or feel sick afterward, see your doctor. It's not uncommon for women to get infections after receiving a brazilian wax.

I agree with both statements.

It really pisses me off when people make the assumption that these riders only got so far due to money, and it pisses me off even more when people make comments like,...

Agreed.

Agree and agree. I am all for shelving when necessary. ;)

I do light coats of Hydrophane on mine. I've had it since January and it's still not dark, but I'm not in a hurry. I have immense fear of over-oiling.

Agreed. I dislike Craigslist, personally. I had a saddle for sale, someone local offered me $50 less than the asking price (which was only a couple hundred), asked for my number, and never called....

I agree.

I have 4 half pads and several baby pads, as well as a few square pads. All are either black, blue, or...yeah, a couple are pink.

Agree with both.

I will use just a baby pad sometimes.

Me too! I order stuff for my horse from them (basics, leather conditioner, bridle bags, etc) because they're the best!

Almost always half seat.

Well, I have 2 of my horses at home, so the at home horses' stuff is all over the place...the tackroom (just a couple of things though, which is odd), my bedroom, and the spare bedroom. I don't know...

I won a $100 shopping spree when I was a little kid at JCPenny's. The slips were in bars of chocolate, and I was with my mom. I took my candy bar and wadded up the paper, and my mom was like, "What...

My mom isn't on Facebook, but I wouldn't care if she saw what I have on there. I have horrid language, but not incriminating pictures or anything like that. I mostly put just pictures of my horses on...

Okay, that makes me feel better...I'm not the only one that this has happened to! :D

That makes everything better, right? :D

I would like:

a Dressage saddle
Dressage pads
Dressage girth
Pessoa fleece lined open fronts
another Tipperary helmet
bits :)

I have one made by Monarch. It's decent and I believe it was $50 new (I bought it second-hand).

Sometimes it would be really nice to just go to the barn and my horse be ready for me to ride. I would rather a groom get my horse really clean and also take care of him really well after I ride so I...

I got a beautiful oversize bridle with reins and a bit off ebay the other day. Made my week, and I was the only bidder! :D

I had a saddle that got drenched in an all-day downpour. I waited until it dried (took over 24 hours) and then cleaned and oiled it.
