get back on the horse
def. 1 (verb) to attempt the same challenging action after failure. apparently derived from an old adage: “you have to get back on the horse that threw you.”
def. 2 (verb) to get back into a habit. traditionally this would refer to a good habit, but sarcastically might refer to a bad habit or addiction. possible confusion with the phrase “on the sauce”.
def. 1 – i know you burned the turkey trying to cook thanksgiving dinner, but you can’t let that stop you if you really want to become a chef. you’ll just have to get back on the horse and try cooking it again.
def. 2 – i’d been trying to do 30 minutes of exercise every day, but my work schedule eventually got so busy i could never make it to the gym. things have calmed down quite a bit recently though and i keep meaning to get back on the horse and go work out again.
