    Aw, Emily, this sucks. Big hug to you. It sounds like you'll be making a better life for yourself out of it, but it's bound to hurt at times.
    Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

    I so know how you are feeling...sort of in the same place myself. As I was submerged in my mess today, my Lt. and friend called and asked if "I wanted to get dirty."....we went for a mountain bike ride in the 110 degree heat and hammered it. I almost killed myself, but I rode hard and felt better. I am glad to have work to go to tomorrow.
    Men! Sorry, Mr. Silver and others.

    Thanks girls
    Well, I raced today and it sucked. I dropped out about 15 minutes into it!
    I have never done that, we voluntarily combined the girls with the cat 3 men b/c we didn't have a lot of girls(7 maybe?). The speed was fine, but mentally I was just fried from this week.
    I went out to lunch with friends afterwards and analyzed things and am now set to get back into training and focus on me and move forward!

    I may be going to SF the first week of sept. to cat sit for my older sister, and then I am going to figure out life.


    I am excited to start this new chapter in life, even if I stay in South Florida, and am happy to know I can come here and share my feelings and have so many warm thoughts from everyone.
    It really helped me out and everyone helped me realize that yes, he is nuts, and yes I do deserve better.

    I love everyone here for being such strong individuals(thats right, we have mr.silver and a few others, so no.. not women!! but yes, individuals)
