    Now I know...

    Why I felt like I was blowing snot rockets every minute today on Diablo. My cold has ramped itself up and my poor nose is already sore from the tissues.

    Get rid of the tissues... just go to the porch and go for distance and accuracy!


    Feel better soon!
    no regrets!

    I'm going to bed. I feel sorry for my pillow. I hope that decongestant stuff I took when I got home kicks in soon.

    I live vicariously through your talents grrls!

    spazz - who generally wears her own rockets and therefore uses the thumb thingy on her gloves instead. I can't spit or whistle either....

    Me too Spazz - the first time I ever tried that I was a runner, and I ended up wearing it and having all the boys laugh at me! what a lovely experience! Here's my excuse why I don't do it now - I had an ENT doc tell me blowing your nose is actually very hard on your sinuses, it can inflame them and lead to sinus infections. The best thing you can do is snuff it back up and spit! and Spit I can do!!!

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    poor baby

    I sympathize. I've been sidelined the last 10 days with a yucky sinus/bronchial infection, right when the weather down here got PERFECT. What a bummer. Anyhoo, after uber-antibiotics I hope I am back out tomorrow afternoon for the fun women's ride. I just hope my legs aren't dead. And I hope you feel better soon! I did a rocket on a slow ride the other day in honor of Spazz, mahself.
