Anyway, I'll give her a call tomorrow after the group ride, late morning or early afternoon, see what happens. And of course, report.

I think we need SA to cut to the heart of the matter. Wasn't the 8 coming for a visit this weekend?

I'm starting tothink this saga was not a cry for help from the therapy circle of addiction, but a thinly veiled bragging.

"She used to be a 10, but I still love her even though she is now an 8"
The reference was made in the mock dialogue posted earlier, methinks by WhyFi.

I remembered the 8.5, but figured you rounded, much like she did.

I've dated girls one year older... I'd date the crap out of my swim coach, who's 40, but have no idea how to approach that tactfully. Wouldn't want to make that uncomfortable and need to drive much farther for swim practice.
And I don't acknowledge the prequels. I don't even have words for my utter lack of respect for that hack JJ Abrams who shouldn't be trusted to direct an elementary school play.

I've decided to go old school in the bottle cage department on the Team Marin. Steel is real. (along with a little bit of plastic)

Thanks for everything guys. Addiction is my guilty pleasure. Like watching General Hospital. Unfortunately I've become one of the characters. Keep it up Solo and Bah Humbug.

It's on the list of things there doesn't appear to be a convincing treatment for. I don't think my case was so bad. Very localized to a small area on that inner ankle, and it responded very well to the wound treatment products and after that to hydrocortisone cream. I think the cycling/weight loss is helping, the medical stuff I read says the weight loss will help with that condition. I ride nearly every day, and as the weather warms up I'll ride more hours too. Not for nothing, but @ 55 the riding is much less about racing and dick measuring than it is about physical and mental health.

When Addiction is your Big Support Group, you know you are pretty far gone. But it beats trying to talk to the Earth People.

Maybe it's because he has the blood circulation of Tutankhamen.

Don't worry, there'll be more on this. And if straight-up *****ing is allowed, that's most of what goes on in my love life.
