Dear So and So

[limewave]

Limewave, you have alot on your plate. I will just come out and say it: Please, please please get some couples counseling. Do it for your kids if not for you. Whatever it takes to get you there. You don't deserve this crap, and your kids deserve to have a better relationship model.

While I'm on a roll here, please also start putting money away for yourself.

There, I'm done. No more advice.

Okay, I lied. I'm not done. Marriage is a team sport. You are having to be the referee.

Okay, now I'm done. For real.

Done. Done. And done. We're on an upswing. He's actually been handling the situation for awhile which is why I have some money to buy my new mountain bike. Selling my business just eliminates the safety net. I think it will be good for all of us.

((((Limewave)))). I'm glad you're taking some positive steps on your own and within your marriage to get things sorted out. I hope the upswing continues.

For your information, dear Tim Melton, news commentator on Houston's channel 13 10:00 pm news,and I quote
" not that anyone is paying attention. Nobody does since Armstrong isn't riding anymore, but tomorrow is the last day of the Tour de France. When there are no Americans riding, no one cares."

Excuse me? and what about the other American riders? What are they, chopped liver?

Dear so and effin' so,

Thanks for ruining my night. I had an awesome ride today, got the tomatoes weeded, cut the grass, and was actually pretty for going out to dinner with friends, but you managed to screw that up all to hell in a hand basket. I could punch you with a sock monkey for that.

Jackass.

Dear LBS,

Why Oh why did you have to show me the new 2012 blue/white Mamba with hydraulic brakes and better shifters than mine and is exactly my size?

It's okay though. I still love my WSD Mamba. But still...

I'm Broke


Dear Teenage Son,

You are only 15. I am not buying a new fork. I am not buying you a full suspension bike because you think your bike is of "lower" quality than what I have. Get a job and if you keep whining I can alway sell your bikes to someone who would truly appreciate them.

Oh...clean your room. It reeks.

The Mom

LOL, Bethany. DBF's parents did the opposite. He got the spiffy new stuff, and his mom got the hand-me-down components and wheels. (His dad rides a recumbent.) I keep teasing him: "Well of course you have a nice bike--you're an only child and had your parents subsidize your hobby!"

Dear laptop:
I know you're old. But please, keep going for a little longer. Especially you, touchpad. I suppose I'll have to buy you a mouse one of these days, though...

Dear right eye--
No. No no no no no. Don't you dare. Please be a coincidence.
