I gotta back out of Monkeyfest.

My mother is having a birthday part on Sat, and apparently what started out as a bday part has turned into a mini family reunion, and somehow I didn't find out until today that that was the case.

I talked to my mother briefly and told her I had a prior commitment (no biggies, it's just a bday party, right?). She basically put down an ultimatum saying if I don't go it could cause a rift between us that can't be fixed.

It sucks, and I hate it, but I have to give in on this on... mostly for the sake of my daughter who adores her grandmother. I hate everything about this, but I don't think it's a bridge I can burn right now.

Sorry guys. Hope you're still able to have fun (weak laugh).

yea, it really does. On a side note though, I'm going to be bacheloring it the week of Aug 8-14th. Any rochester monkies care to show a fat, out of shape slob around the trails up there?

I know and I still have Friday off.

Oh well it's probably for the best I haven't been on my bike since mid June.

Yeah we all know monkeyfest is only for the fittest of riders... we ususally ditch the slow ones by mile 3 to never seem them again... ever...

Come on man, it would be great if you could make it.... (last attempt at convincing RM's greatest poster to come...)

"She basically put down an ultimatum saying if I don't go it could cause a rift between us that can't be fixed."

Yea... I know - that's part of all this. It's a really crappy situation (for everyone), and the ultimatum is a bit part of it.

Now I know where the saying "Save the Drama for your Mama" came from.

It is better said as.. "Save/delete the Drama from your Mama" and look it up later, while it is savely stored at your harddisk.



But on a side note i have had a really big laugh, about the changed thingss, concerning our beloved Stosh.
