Safe journey, Suzi! And safe arrival. New beginnings--so exciting.
I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Save travels, Suzi!

Punishingly Intricate
I was going to practice taping them to the frame like them thar professionals do, only it didn't work.
You don't have a seat pack? I can't deal with the gels really unless it's absolutely necessary. I like those sports gummy square things...Cliff shot blocks! (relatively) YUM! But what are your nutrition mistakes?
Kristin, I'm sorry to hear about your dogs. I hope your ex is able to find a great place for them where you'll be able to visit.

I think I just totally sold myself short, but blech. I'm so not good at negotiating rates for my services.

Thanks, amych. I didn't see any way to organize the sets. Guess I will just spam the group with my Buffista sets and let it happen as it does. Mmmmm, foamy Buffistas.

Without a doubt you did, vw. It is a tough thing for me too. You need an agent!

Yeah, really. What I should have said is, "This is my hourly rate. Take it or leave it." It's bad when you need the money so badly...

It's a thing going round too. We have had to discount like crazy because that is what all of our competition is doing. It seems all the business owners I know are suffering. The tiny city in Florida where my sibs and parents live had 15 restaurants go under last month. Including my favorite Italian place! I felt guilty since I hadn't been there in about a year - because too broke.
Being frugal sucks.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

I never seem to eat properly or even enough before I head out. I bought a bento box for food but it doesn't fit on the new bike. I was wearing my new tri clothes but I need a new top because I want to have pockets in the back of the jersey instead of little mesh pockets. Although it doesn't matter if I don't actually fill them up.
I like shot bloks and the luna chews (since they're by the same company), the cytomax is pretty decent for carb drink, and I don't mind the Accel gels because they're more watery than gooey. The Clif gels are disgusting.
Ugh. It'll all sort itself out, I'm just frustrated with myself.

I loved the chocolate Gu gels. Total yum. With lots of water.
