The planets (or my bike) were aligned just right, Velogirl - I never thought (and have never seen it happen) that if my bike came out I would go flying off into the sunset! Or across the basement as it were....And although I haven't gotten ON the bike with the wrong skewer in place, I did load my bike, show up for a ride and then realized I had the wrong skewer....

Bikehubby is learning just to leave me to my workout and yelling at the DVD, Chickwhorips.....ask no questions, just be glad of the endorphins when I finish....
