Grrrrr. Sometimes my job can be stressful. Somedays it can be overwealmingly stressfull. And lately, it's beyond overwealmingly stressful. I won't go into any detail other than a deadline for a government contract was due today and my asshole boss was in an unreasonable bi-polar asshole mood. It got to the point, I almost told him - "if you think you can do a better job and speed this process up, then do it. Or preferably, shut the fuck up and let me do my job. we don't need to talk this to death. This proposal will NOT write/present itself." I think he got the point of my frustration when we finally finished it. And I think he felt bad so he sent someone out to get a few bottles of champagne - I was suprized. I'm not vindictive, or ungrateful - but what a shallow gesture. So I didn't have any champagne (seemed to him as if indignant), mostly because I was going on a long bike ride after the little "celebration". All ended well, I got to get out on the trail - biked to Shirlington and back (42 miles) - felt great. A couple of my co-workers gathered around me and my bike in the parking lot while I was stretching out and preparing for my ride. They must think I am nuts. "So why do you do this?...""That's a really light weight bike - but my gosh - why would you spend that kinda money?" But they thought it was more cool than anything. "OMG, those are the thinnest tires I've ever seen!" "Where are the rest of your pedals?""How fast do you go?""You have got to be kidding, you do 1000 miles a month?" I smiled.
