Always Learning in My this and that

Yesterday I made two mistakes.

Mistake #1:
I woke up with a really sore neck, couldn’t turn my head and every time I stood from my chair at work I had pain… it cause a headache which caused me to be dizzy and nauseous, which all in all made for a kind of crummy day. It wasn’t until I was in bed sleeping and trying to roll over (which caused pain) that I realized I hadn’t prayed! Silly me. So I was mostly asleep, but I prayed.
I slept better after that. And this morning it doesn’t hurt quite as bad; I even awoke early and went for a jog!

Mistake #2:
There was a lady biking towards me. She was wearing earbuds in both ears, and there was a bike lane right beside me, but she had chosen to bike on the sidewalk (which technically you can get a ticket for). She saw me and I think she indicated for me to move over so she didn’t have to go around me, but I didn’t really realize that’s what was happening until it was too late. She screamed at me, asking if I was stupid and “didn’t I know how to drive?!”, and I’m ashamed to say I yelled back, “Well I don’t tend to ride my bike on the sideWALK”. (I also wanted to say “no, I don’t know how to drive that’s why I’m WALKing on the sideWALK” but I wasn’t that quick.) Anyway, I realize now that I shouldn’t have said anything.
I’m not saying I was in the wrong, as I do believe that on the sidewalk pedestrians do have right of way. I don’t mind if you’re biking on the sidewalk, but at least lets be courteous to others.
I wish I could apologize, and I wish I would have handled the situation better. I was quite shaken and angry afterward, and I hope that I have learned something from this experience. Yelling at her is not what God would have wanted me to do.
