    I'm still wary, even though obviously I clicked on that last one, I don't generally think it's a good idea. As I said before, I'm suspecting more and more that being entertaining is part of the strategy. Admins, is the forum software good and tight against not only clickjacking, but click recording?

    If we don't follow the links in the post, how can that present a problem? Just wondering.

    Headed home after spending the last two stifling days with the inlaws. They exhaust me. My FIL has a bad habit of only half listening to a conversation and then demanding that you repeat the bits and pieces that pique his interest. My MIL mumbles everything she says. So, having a coherent discussion that doesn't get interrupted every minute with a loud "huh?" or "what did you/she/he say" is impossible. Ugh.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

    So I figured out why I ended up in the ER last week. Nothing to do with gallbladders or my digestive system. It seems I pulled (or something) a muscle in my abdomen the weekend before, when I was riding in very windy conditions in a high gear. I must have turned the wrong way or something to turn off my alarm clock. I guess it's trainer-only, no resistance intervals for a couple weeks...
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    sorry to hear that there is a wrinkle in your riding but thank goodness it wasn't medical. I once wrenched something putting a stack of laundry on the bed that had the MD guessing hip cancer, or the like before he conceded it might be a pulled muscles. At time drugs are your friends.

    heal easily and don't push it.

    Yes, it's a good thing it wasn't a gallbladder/ stomach thing--no surgery, diet changes or the proton pump inhibitor that my prescription-happy doc suggested. I might have had a mild GI bug on top of it. I figured this out when I started getting pain in the same place on my ride today...

    Hopefully it rains the next two or three weekends.

    Sometimes it is very hard to tell if the poster is a spammer with BAD English, or some innocent woman trying out her English skills on a women's cycling forum.These extreme examples we've been laughing over, of course, there is no doubt which it is...

    I used to actually read the emails from the Nigerians who wanted to give me loads of money if I just gave them my bank account information, and one of them was so creative I emailed him or her back and complimented him or her on their creative writing skills. It was actually quite good, in a bizarre fantasy fiction sort of way, and I suggested they explore options in writing fiction. I think this shocked them, they responded and thanked me and didn't try to persuade me further to give them my bank account info. This was years ago, I wouldn't dream of doing that these days.

    Since my mom had her health scare last summer I feel absolutely stuck, I mean it's great that my honey got her new job and we are setting up our house a bit better... but I just keep feeling like I'm in a cage. We were supposed to be going to Key West, we were supposed to be having a new adventure, facing new challenges, getting OUT! Instead I just keep coming back to my box inside a box office, in the dark, and then I get to leave in the dark... and it's cold outside.
