You keep on talking, and talking, then you realize and say "Gosh, you have no idea what a mille fleur d'uccle is, or anything I'm talking bout is do you?"

Or, you ask you friend and question, and the pause, pondering the thought you just said 'y'all'

OR, (my fav) You go to your feed store, and the emloyee there says "Hey Carrie, hows the chicks doing? Is the duck doing well?" (reffering the to the half grown duck we bought there once)

Or (kinda like the last one) an adult asks a question and before the employee can respond the 11 year old says the answer, along with 5x extra more info then needed, and ended up some how to saying "And thats where all duck breeds come from except the muscovy, who.." and then the adult walks away, confused

it's your time to drive at lunch and when your city friends (cause you work in the city and live 100 miles away in the country) get in your car they ask "what's that smell? where you hauling feed again?"

when your single wide trailer needs a bigger living space added, but you expand the chicken coops and goat barn first.

you get excited when your better half gets a job at TSC, not for the pay check but for the discount.
you drive by a construction site and stop to ask if you can have the scrap wood.
when the foreman of construction sites knows your truck and waves you down to get scrap wood.
the glazed over look people give you when you talk about your animals but you keep going because you love them so much.
the surprised look people give you when they find out your goats have no ears (LaMancha)

When don't even mind that you spend last Saturday night washing layers of urine off of your Nigerian buck's legs and '"equipment" and coating him with diaper cream.

When you drive your truck to work with a trailer load of hay to deliver after work and everyone in the shop knows whose truck it is.

When your boss gives you his car to drive to take customers out to lunch because your car smells like a barn.

When you have your own shelf in the community fridge at work for all the egg deliveries.

When you have your office cubicle COVERED in photos of your farm animals...including your child with her Turkey, the goats on the playset, the dog, the barn, the chickens, guineas, etc. When your coworkers come around and make the mistake of commenting on your photos...you go on a 20 minute "show and tell" of naming every animal and exactly what you love about them! Of course they duck away while your back is turned...and then rarely ever talk to you again. (Although they go on and on about how they buy organic eggs and veggies at the store and blah blah blah....but NEVER ask you!)

Or a coworker outright informs you they are a PETA cardholding member...when you mention your 'farm'...and you just go "oh" and walk away...cause they stated all farms are inhumane and dreads the fact that eating eggs is required due to their protein deficiency (but buys eggs from the STORE!). I'm evil for keeping chickens and having dairy goats... Did I mention this coworker wears wool and leather products? Ironic isn't it?!
