HERE it is!



I just got a new tattoo! I know it's silly but I love it! I got the angel smiley face from Instant Messenger. I have wanted to get it for years, it's my signature smiley face on messengers. I will take pics once the bandage is off.
OH and I had a near death experience on Thursday. I went out cycling, I try and do a certain route in an hour or less. Not sure how far it is, but it's a good ways away. So I'm about 2 km from home, mind you I am only cycling on a designated path, there are 2 lanes, lines down the middle.... you get the idea. So I'm barreling down the path, a man is walking in my lane, a bike is coming the opposite direction in his lane. The bike passes me, I attempt to pass the man who is walking by going around him to his left, so i'm pretty much in the middle of the path, and SHAZAM he walks RIGHT in front of me. It all happened so fast, I had no time to ring my bell (which I swear to fucking god I will be more aggressive with, I want an air horn actually.) so I swerved some more, dinged his watch with my handle bar which swung my handle bars the other direction. All of a sudden I'm over the handle bars, off the path, onto the grass, on my side, slamming into the fence. I pretty much rode it out on my left hip, my shoulder, and most of all my elbow. The man was not hurt, of course. He told me that he always walks in the middle of the path and that I should keep my hand on the back brake only. I was too in shock to freak out, he must have thought I slammed on my front breaks but it was my out of control tire that pitched me over. I was in shock a bit at first, thank GOD it was grass I landed on. If it was gravel my elbow would have been worn off, along with half my clothes. I was fully ready to hop on my bike and ride home, but no, my chain was fucked up. So I walked home. Daily I have been feeling worse and worse. Turns out I have sprained my ankle, i have the BIGGEST bruise I have ever seen on the inside of my right thigh where my seat dug into it, I will post pics later on of that. Also my ass is mega bruised, both thighs, my elbow... The moral of this story for me? Only do cardio at the gym, use my bike for leisurely rides, and buy a frikin helmet.
Other than that, I just came back from shopping, again. I bought another pair of shoes go figure! What I really need is, well nothing. But I really need capri pants/skirts/pants/shorts just bottoms. So I bought 7 tops instead. Ack. I got a discout though! My brother works at the store I shopped at. 25% off woohooo!
