Good Karma

I'm having some good karma this week. I don't know what I did and to whom, but I'm glad I did it.

It seems like all these people who couldn't stand me or were mad at me have completely changed face. I'm all cool now. It's slightly weird, but I'm running with it.

One example. Last year, I dated this guy, and he kind of went crazy on me, and we broke up. I don't think I ever really liked him. I liked having someone like me. Never the best relationship to get into.

Anyway, I did think he was a nice person. So, after we broke up, I wrote him and wished him good luck on a bike ride he was doing. Nothing. And then two weeks later I was at a bar and sitting next to someone he knew, he walked over me to talk to the friend. Didn't even say anything to me. I offically realized, I was dead to him.

Fast forward months and months later. I bought a new bike on Craigslist. ITS FABULOUS. Its a 70s AMF 3 speed. Hot, metallic pink. YAY!! Anyway, before I purchased it, I wanted to be sure I was getting a good price. So, I write him an email titled "please don't delete, i need bike help", and then proceed to tell him about the bike. The response I get "I wouldnt' delete your email silly". Ok.

So, yesterday I write him to say I got the bike, it's great, but the back tire is kind of flat and the gear stick a bit. I wanted to know if Richardson Bike Mart is too expensive and if there was someplace better to go. The next thing you know he is offering to come over and clean up my bike for me. I'm all for free. So, I tell him to come by.

Seriously, I don't know what happened. Maybe he is in love and in a good place in his life? Whatever it is, he has seemed to pass the Koolaid around. Everyone's being super nice to me. Just watch. I just jinxed it.

Some Sunday if you want to do the bike trail at Royal and Greenville I'll be your riding partner...

I've been wanting to get a bike myself. Nothing too expensive. With my past, my bike screams, "take me you stranger!"

Oh Kerry definately. Giving her a wash tonight. She is a bit hard to get into the car, but I'm sure I can figure it out.

And hopefully no one takes her. I have to say, I don't know many people who would want her, but I like vintage things.

You can only take running classes for so long. Now "All your Thursdays are belong to us. Someone set us up the bike ride!"
