I am SPARTACUS!!! →[More:]After a week of depression, I have emerged triumphant.

The point of no return was when I’d reached the stage of deciding to buy a bike, to compensate for my low confidence, and battling with it for the entire week, and overcoming it to realize that I am more than a materialistic possession. I am me, and that should be enough. With or without a bike.

Also, mudpuppie—will you marry me? Not that I want you to do all the house work, but because I want to become a stud like you, and under your tutelage, I know I will;)

You rock, girl!
