Oh, erin, that sucks.

Ugh, what an asshole.

Clearly, it just wasn't the right time for you to do this...perhaps if you're ever inspired to try again, you can have a coach who's into actual, y'know, coaching - helpful, encouraging, gently correcting - rather than a snarky little bitchface.

If it helps at all, I, and many other bitches hereabouts, think you're pretty awesome.

Aw, thanks :) It's just amazing how reading that even after months made my face burn red and hot with repressed anger, like I needed to defend myself but there's just no point and never was. So I worked out and petted my kitties and had a good sleep. It still stings. It's so hard to let certain things go.

Well, yeah, high-stress situation, feeling bad because it didn't go the way you wanted it to, then, instead of support, an additional attack? You'll probably have to let it go a few more times before it's really gone.

Wow, that did not come out as supportive as I meant it to. My point was your feelings are completely understandable, not that you need permission to feel your feelings, but in case you're feeling like you're being too emotional or whatever, it seems like a perfectly reasonable response to me.

Anyway, I hope you're able to permanently evict him from your head very soon.

All things will pass, so too will this. And that which doesn't kill ya, makes ya stronger. So, when this becomes a memory, and the scab is healed, use it. learn from it. move on. And maybe, go for the promotion during the winter months next time. Either way. We all think you rock!

There's an AV, not an AB.

Okay, I can tell I was worried last night because I was even wondering how and AB would help with a virus, but I guess my brain didn't follow that thought to the end. I think the side effects are more serious AND Sammy is still 8 months old. I guess, having thought about it ALL night, I'd rather he have chicken pox.

Erin, so sorry your coach was so...not a coach. Sounds like he was really not good a what he was doing because there really isn't a place for snide comments in coaching. Even if you made mistakes, you were supposed to be learning; he wasn't.

Poor, Sammy! I hope he is feeling better soon.

{{{Erin}}} That sounds like an awful experience. I'm sorry.

~ma to all the other sick Bitches. I'm feeling better today, except I have zero energy.

Tea:

A friend posted about her anniversary on facebook today, which reminded me that mine is next month. So, I ordered a nice bottle of Scotch from the liquor store for TCG. It's from the distillery we visited last year. They don't carry it, but they claim it is orderable, another liquor store said it wasn't, so I hope they are right.

Which distillery, sj?

Glengoyne.
