LVGurl: Yeah, you need to get into Donna. She’ll make you hurt like hell at first, but it actually helps. And the pain is fleeting, especially if you ice after. I love visiting her (for more than just the fact that she’s an awesome person).

Oooh… I can’t wait to hear the Starbucks story. Some people are amazingly awful.

I STILL need to visit Donna. It must be done.

The week before my tri, my endocrinologist asked me “why anyone would want to do THAT” (meaning a triathlon) to their bodies. I think he was referring to a full Ironman, but still…

I have a story to tell you someday about a nasty lady last year in the Starbucks drive-thru. I am amazed at how terrible women (let alone PEOPLE) can be to one another.

tgorourke: It was my regular MD that made the age crack, that’s why I’m going to a chiro that appreciates sports! It isn’t right to make comments like that, even if the person thinks they’re being funny. It made me question his skill and knowledge.

And yeah, mean people that jump all over a perfect stranger suck. I was smiling and friendly too until she started screaming at me.

It’s kind of scary that there are people out there that are like that. I commend you for not losing your temper back on her. And if she parked on the line, then it’s her own fault if when you opened your door it lightly touched hers.

What’s this comment of your chiropractor “for your age?!” What is with some people these days that they feel it’s appropriate to say something like that? I just don’t get it somedays.

I’ve also found that on those days that I don’t take a break, it is hard to keep going. You are much more positive than me – if it’s a crappy run, I call it a crappy run. (I try to censor myself on my blog from calling it the expletives usually going through my mind.) ;-(
