Good morning all and my apologies for the unpleasantness last night. I'm sipping coffee and eating a cinnamon muffin and wondering why my legs are sore. It's not like I've been riding ridiculous miles. I'm thinking it has something to do w/ going up and down the Queensboro bridge last night twice when I went to dinner w/ a friend. But it was all worth it. Had incredibly good Thai food, good conversation and a cool ride home. If anyone needs a good Thai restaurant recommendation in NYC, lemme know.
*sigh* Thai food. I'm jealous.
I'm sitting at my desk wishing this headache I'd had for the past three days would go away. Sinus related, I think. Also happy I'm alive. My stylists best friend died suddenly the other day of heart failure. She was 27 and had no idea that her heart was damaged. So sad.

I'm going to a Journey concert tonight!!! :D Def Leppard is also playing after, but I'm not sure I'm going to stay for them. The Def Leppard singer's voice is not so good these days.

Gratuitous TT bike pic. Only waiting for one part to finish...Ultegra rear cassette. But it's gonna be a bullet. I keep stopping to stare at it every time I go to the kitchen!!
I guess I will have to make a stop by cycle17's kitchen. I wonder if I can get that thing through the window. hmmmmm

Sounds like they want what THEY want and screw you is there attitude. That sucks!
That is like every single job under the face of the sun.
"we are a flexible company and we respect your time and you"
If you take Memorial day off you're working 24 hours straight.
They give you benefits that you don't ever need and they know it and don't bother to personally take the time to compensate that person for not using 20k in benefits that othe people are using and abusing.

The only reward for hard work is more hard work. Sounds like you trapped yourself in your own job by being too good at it.
I would have thought that people would have learned that by now. I mean it only took me like 6 years of working in this world putting in 9-10 years worth of work in that time to figure that out.

Ugly like your mom?
A roadie using the word wussy? Irony at its best. Why don't you go ride the road somewhere, get yourself tired and take a nap.
You really know how to stir up dust. Hope somebody doesn't come by you with a pin and deflate all of that hot air.

Ain't you ever heard of rope? :) C'mon TG, I got dibs on the OCLVs.
Jyo if your going to actually get pissed off with someone, make sure they actually give a rats A5s. It's the internet, no one cares, no one wins, and its ridiculous to get mad at anything. At least that's what your mom told me last night :D
Personal responsbility - look it up. What's good fun to one person may be playground politics to another.

Well the whole thing was a result of some very rude comment he had made when I made mention of the fact I had my mother put bendryl on my ass where I had tons of hives, where I couldn't reach. It's a two way street, sadly I'm usually the one pointed out as irresponsible.
Funny thing is, when I playfully responded then everything got serious. You guys are too funny.

Yet you took my comment as aimed solely at you? You were embarrassed, and instead of saying, "Okay, maybe I shouldn't have played this out in front of all of you," you say, "Screw him if he can't take a joke." Just saying here.
Where's that special olympics pic when I need it.:eek:

You seem to have Fiddy beat when it comes to rudeness, idiocy, insensitivity, annoyingness and coming off as childish 3 year old who tells people to either "shut up" or <Insert some lame Mom Joke>
I thought it was pretty hard to beat Fiddy too at this.

It's pointless Lex.
You're arguing with a kiddie who's most mature comebacks boil down to
a) an untasteful Your Mom's joke
b) telling them to shutup
c) pulling the Internet Olympics picture and not realizing that picture represents them
d) telling somebody to shut up
e) an untasteful Your Mom's joke
f) the classic "teling somebody not to take them seriously" and then "calling them funny"
g) an untasteful Your Mom's joke

Also, I'm eating a Red Delicious apple. It's red, but not very delicious. Does anyone know of any specific type of apple that is consistently crispy and juicy other than the green variety?

Yes, Braeburn apples are most delicious and crispy. Also, fujis and galas are yummy. Red delicious are not so good. I had a yummy gala this morning with my kombucha. It was goooood!

You might wanna save some of that rocket fuel for the ride home. And Fuji apples are more yellow than green and taste really good.

Around here, the Gala apples are just as inconsistent as the RD. I'll try Braeburn next. If anything, they have the coolest name.
EDIT: Or maybe a few Fujis and a few Braeburns and have myself a good 'ol blind taste test.

2nd day as in:
1. 2nd day after you cook them?
2. 2nd day in a row you've eaten them?
3. 2nd day after you've eaten them?
I think my body's just in shock after giving it decent food for so long and then doing what I did yesterday...
Someone needs to set up the chute. I have two Braeburn apples in the car. An older guy keeps giving them to me which is sweet but kind of creepy so I needed a taster anyway. :lol:
By the way, for the pie lovers here - they're the best ones for apple caramel crunch pie.

I know....I was just saying.....it's even harder to make the point because the more embarrassed they get, the more belligerant trying to pass off as humor they get. I wasn't invested at all - just saying.

Can you define who this "we" is because I'm usually not lady like.... :p :eek: :D :o
Guess I'll apologize jyo. I truly thought you were kidding when you were acting like you were mad at the mom jokes. TG- No comment, I could say something about your internet trolling and lack of understanding the situation. But then again, you always have the good ole "Immature kiddy" line to fall back on. Funny how my "immaturity" gets called out and everyone elses is overlooked.
So you're trying to feed me apples laced with ruffies?
No....but take a bite and then we'll wait a few minutes. Don't worry, if you get all woozy I'll call the older guy in to take care of you. :lol:

There is a band playing in the courtyard right next to my work, and they are LOUD!!!

We are who we are - time to learn to accept it. Ladylikeness and all. :lol:
