Dear So and So

[Becky]

Dear FSA:

Your bottom brackets are rubbish. Nothing should have that much drag or noise, especially after 1000+ miles. The culprit is getting trashed ASAP....and I won't be buying another one from you. Now, to find a suitable replacement....

Dear large insect--
One, you're freaky-looking. Two, stop flying into my window. It's annoying. The glass is not going to disappear, and you're just going to end up with a headache. Go fly into that nice spider web near the window. You look like you might be a tasty meal for its occupant (and maybe one or two of its friends!).

Dear self--
Please stop playing with the Project One thing. I know you've just created the sexiest thing on wheels (in your opinion), but you need to stop. You don't have four and half thousand dollars.

Not-dear bike shop--
You just take your sweet time, don't you? It shouldn't take this long. (You do this a lot, don't you? Last time I left a bike there, it took you a week to do a simple derailleur adjustment...) Am I going to have to visit you?

Dear self--
Please resist the urge to make buckeyes this afternoon. They're really Not Good for you. (Though they are delicious.)
Also, call the damn bike shop.

You are talking about the peanut butter/chocolate buckeyes right? If so, you can make them and send them my way. NE doesn't have a state food candy.

I should have picked up a couple of cans of Skyline Chili over the weekend while in Ohio for my DH, but didn't think of it.

And as usual there were plenty of state troopers from Columbus to Dayton out on patrol.

I am! I didn't actually make them today, but I might tomorrow if we've got enough powdered sugar. My bike is ready for pickup, so a few rides will balance them out, right? (Now that I think about it, they might make decent ride food if they didn't melt. Peanut butter and sugar...)

I found a chili recipe that's close to Cincinnati style, but for some reason they keep forgetting that it's not supposed to be spicy. I'm still tweaking the seasonings on that...

Did you live in Ohio at some point?

20+ years ago the conventional wisdom was that that was the most heavily patrolled stretch of freeway in the USA.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's still true. Thank goodness I live on the *other* side.

It extends now...pretty much Columbus to Indy. At least the last time I was there.

Dear self:

Don't be a pushover when you call the contractor later. The new room shouldn't be leaking already, and he needs to know that his electrician sucks (or that he can't communicate effectively).

Dear Client,

Please fire me and free me from this disaster.
