    Dear Fate:

    It is not funny to kill the transmission in my Bike/Fish Mobile when my husband is trying to get back from his mom's house to rejoin the last day of his male-bonding fishing trip. He's spent the last couple days dealing with an obstinate selfish aging mother while missing a couple of days from a 25+ yr old annual ritual with friends he only sees once a year because this family meeting just had to be scheduled this week instead of next. So it's 4 pm in Pocahello* on a Friday. Could you have made it any closer to the weekend? Or ruined anymore of his very special trip?

    SK

    *No insult intended to residents of southeastern Idaho. I love it there. Except when the car dies and home is 600 miles away and he has a friend with him he has to get home.

    Dear Fate:

    One last thing that I forgot. Did you have to send his credit card on an unchaperoned shopping spree in Ohio?

    I'm not sure this is going to go down as one of his better vacations. Memorable, but not better.

    Dear fate,

    Its bad enough that I am struggling with school and ADD, Chronic fatigue and dealing with emotional abuse therapy( for me); but did you have to steer me into buying a plane ticket for wrong date I cannot cancel, a big hole I cut into my new ran cycling pants when opening the parcel and the shoe that fell at work and cut my face? Also, my psycho mom is stalking me on facebook and writing cruel and odd comments, what is with that?
    Im very happy you sent that nice man to help fix that flat, and that the bike shop was two blocks . Also that my new friend just happened to be walking home from her ( flooded ) work today by chance.
    Please , please let me study in peace. I think I may even start to retain some knowledge. Please let counseling go ok, without too much crying.
    I really would be so happy if the run pf bad luck could just stop and nice things happen, please?
    love,
    cycle goddes

    Dear CG,

    A big hug. Keep looking out for the good things. That's the key. Suddenly, you'll realize you have a lot to be happy about.
