Dear So and So

[Catrin]

So just making sure; you're not actually the guy cyber-stalking Pax on the other forum, right?

Thankfully no - it isn't THAT bad The comment was actually made on TE - it was a very poorly worded comparison between two fitness facilities but it looked like I was blasting my former trainer. I KNOW better than to compare, especially on the internet What made matters worse was that he & his wife saw it within an hour or so after posting

Yes, I have to remind myself that it would be pretty easy to identify me by others who live around here and are active in the cycling community. My nasty comments about my LBS were read by them and while I am glad they did read this, it made me cautious about other stuff.

[Catrin]

It has been a painful lesson, but that is life - the irony of it was that right before I heard from him I was getting ready to go and remove that comment. Just a reminder to think 3 times before hitting that post button - and 5 times if it is before coffee!

Dear spider:
I don't mind you being here, but could you remove yourself from the wall? You're freaky-looking (though probably harmless) and you're hanging out right next to the switch for my lamp...

Dear Chick on my group ride who thinks she's my coach,

Your unsolicited advice was both insulting and annoying. I wasn't struggling, I was waiting for my friend. Please mind your own business from now on, and a little less blabbing would also be appreciated. You talk too much.

Dear ankle:
Why are you hurting again? You haven't DONE anything.

Dear opposable thumb:

We're sorry that your hurting. However, it's your own damn fault - you insist on doing everything by yourself. There's four of us and only one of you. Now it looks like we may have to team up with Ms. Palm to do some of your job.
