Hehe. I had no idea. My mom always said people were "chomping at the bits". I know you are horse people. I've never been near a horse in my life. I know it's probably hard to believe that, but it's the truth!

Thanks for the tease. I figured I wouldn't get too many responses as this was a pretty mundane post compared to my Wednesday one.
