I just wanted to officially apologize for publicly "going off" on Riff in a past thread, and creating a bad atmosphere here for a few. I was in a very bad mood last week, in fact one of the most stressful worst weeks of my life, and it seems I took it out on Riff for no good reason. Pretty much every post Riff has made has held a lot of facts and good info for most here, and I think we all appreciate his input and I am sorry for speaking ill of the one and only Riff. It is true we are all people and cannot always get along, but I just wanted to apologize to Riff and everybody else for my public criticizing of a fellow VXer's posts.
I thought about not going into any details as to why I was in one of the worst moods in my life, but you all are almost like family, so I figured some of you might actually care, the others of you don't have to read at all. I don't think any one thing had really upset me it is just a lot of things piling up and it seems that not too many positives are going on right now. So within 2 days of each other all of these things happened last week:
-Ended a 3-4 month relationship Wed thought it ended ok, then surprise yeah right, terrible hate texts out of no-where, very confusing
-Ex-girlfriend from last year (March I think) shows up to one of my public speaking engagements and tries to publicly humiliate me in front of group, we mutually ended things back in March and we were very friendly after everything, I have no idea where that came from either
-Increase of responsibilities at HBU (coaching), and Buffalo Specialties (sales), and having to decide whether to continue competing professionally through 2012 or not being forced upon me by others
-School starts back up at HBU the athletic director asks me to start teaching a class in addition to teaching the FCA Bible Study in addition to all coaching responsibilities.
-RX-8 battery died leaving me stranded at HBU, tranny scratching, rough idle, passenger visor fell off, sun roof stopped working
-VX air intake mount broke loose leaving hole between wheel well and engine bay, front wheel drive starting to grind on high speed right hand turns, A/C lights starting to flicker, windshield cracked
-Head coach at HBU is no longer encouraging me to continue competing professionally in decathlon, in fact she assumed I was done without asking
-Also sit down conversation with head track coach told me I was not working enough hours and I needed to do more around HBU
So needless to say, I just had a bad week and I am sorry for taking it out on Riffraff and the community here at VX.info Sorry guys and gals, won't happen again.
