    Bad moods

    People are in bad moods today. Twice this morning riding my bike to work I was yelled at in some way, and it’s a short bike ride. A guy in a car yelled at me to get off the road even though I was as close to the side of the road as I could get and another person cursed at me from the sidewalk for apparently no reason from what I can tell. It’s a beautiful morning guys. Get some coffee and relax.

    Day is going swell for me. Chatted with one team scattered across the country and video chatted with another team down in Argentina, everything going smooth, moving along well. No one angry. Just wrote a check for property taxes and that put a damper on things, but otherwise a sunny day even though it's cloudy outside.

    They all have a case of the ass because of Kavanaugh

    As for me I am in a very good mood (don't spoil it)
    My BP is near perfect
    My weight continues to go down (from 220 down to 180 today)
    My Blood sugar is slightly elevated but within bounds
    We were missed by the hurricane
    I just received serendipity money (money I didn't know I had coming to me)
    I discovered I can eat sushimi on my salt free diet.

    I have a lot to be happy about.

    So, be of good cheer and count your blessings one by one
    and next time you go biking a Walther PPK 22 makes a good concealed weapon to take out $#@!s!

    Bike riders are suppose to use the road- not the sidewalks - note the walk part of the word.

    Personally, I have to admit that I am a bit cranky today. I think it's the weather.

    Reread her post, she said she was in the road as close to the edge as she could be and that someone who was on the sidewalk yelled at her. Maybe she had a split in her riding pants and they were actually being nice and letting her know!

    It could be worse. You don't live in the Florida panhandle.

    I've noticed that many bicyclists act as though the streets were built just for them. When people are fighting regular traffic while trying to get to work, they get cranky with bicyclists making it worse.

    I occasionally ride a bike for exercise, but I try to use routes which won't clog up the streets and put people out. Maybe you should look for an alternate route. One which is both safer for you and will not have you holding up traffic?

    They have been adding bike lanes in many areas around here and in DC (the nice part).
