The thoughts and opinions of mostly one cyclist from Madison County, VA.

It is strange how seemingly little things become big, depending on the circumstances. I am so tired of whining. I am tired of being alone. I am tired of waiting for something good to happen when something else always gets in the way. I am tired.
Hi Jane....Oh, you sound soooo weary!! I know the Michael-being-away thing has got to be getting pretty old.....
I bet you'll feel better when the Lasik procedure is over and you have "brand new" eyes! (And, of course, your heel heals from your bizarre vacuuming accident. By the way, Aden wasn't nearby at the time, was he?LOLLLLLLLL!)
As soon as you can see well enough to drive, you should take a day jaunt somewhere new, fun, relaxing to give yourself a break from the routine. Doing so will help you feel like you're the one in charge, and less like you're simply stuck waiting. I know you've got a multi-day trip coming up, but maybe something brief and pampering would be in order, too?? Spa day? Museum? Someone else's garden??
I'm heading out of town myself or I'd see if we could get together and 'play' for an afternoon somewhere!!
Saw an adolescent black bear this morning while on a tough 32-mile ride up on the Parkway!!! He crossed the road in front of me. I came to a screeching halt about 50 yards from him, in order to give any Mama Bear an opportunity to saunter after him. Fortunately, I think she sauntered first, and he was following her. CUTE!!!
Had a great time at the TdF pah-tay--thanks a million! Thought that a Tour de France party might drag a few of the lurkers out of the woodwork, but alas, no. Never mind the curmudgeons--WE know who the party animals are!
Oh, and please tell that sassy lassie (Ms Brown) that I'm being falsely accused and maligned; I haven't had an "incident" of any kind lately (though I've been rackin' up the miles). Of course, she would know this herself if she'd condescend to come slum with her Madison friends from time to time. Ah, those haughty C'villians!
Please do not take offense, as I sorely hate to be bested by even such a sterling example of the weaker sex. Reckon I'm safe--so long as I stay in Madison County...

Live Out Loud!!!
"Ah, those haughty C'villians"???????
Them's fightin' words, Nichols!! En garde! Touche! And all that swashbuckling, saber-rattling, duel-type verbiage!
My dear Ms Brown,

"Uh oh!" Jane thinks as she backs slowly out of the room....
