about getting from point A to point B in the most interesting ways possible

If you're a large woman in America, your whole life is an opportunity to feel self-conscious, embarrassed, resentful and way too big. You can hide in the corner or on the couch, you can go to therapy, or you can put on your lycra bike shorts and get out there and move.

Yeah, whatever permalink

I hate the fact that my mood can shift so suddenly.

I had a nice ride into work, and as I'm in the right turn lane, ready to turn the corner into my building, I see a guy who works in the building. It's not that I recognize him: I recognize his bike, this sweet matte black and shiny red Trek.

So I say, "Sweet bike!"

And he says, "Yeah, whatever."

And I say, "I was serious."

And now I'm pissed. I'm all $#*()& you, &Y*@, though he's long gone.

Why can't people be nice? Now my day is shot.
