    Nanci - EEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    That is TERRIFYING.

    So we just had lunch with the good Fishdr. It was GREAT. She's just wonderful - what I'd imagined. We wandered around the Ferry Plaza for a bit and chatted. We had V and Thom, Jo, Snap, Winddance, BikerZ and Melissam. I think that's the group. Anyway, it was fun. After a couple hours, the PP reached her limit and we left the group as they were headed to Pier 39.

    I am bringing Fishdr to Marin to drive up Mt. Tam tomorrow morning. I'm hoping she doesn't mind taking the ferry back to the city because the traffic was inSANE. The bay bridge closure made traffic on the OTHER bridge that I had to use to get out of SF crazy. I have never seen it so bad. Getting out of the city is rough.

    Resting up now. I gotta figure out something to do with these blisters from running. Only 11 miles today, but the big one's huge... hmmm...

    beautiful day to be out in the lagoon! the sun came out and aaaahhhhhh! i'm recharged. kyak girl (me) saved the day from the eiders running away. not to mention pulling people in boats that were stuck in eel grass. CWR's boat service here to help.

    we banded about 100 sea ducks, and a few choice ones got molested for avian flu.

    hope everyone had as good of day as i did. i am now going to enjoy a glass of wine, if i can find one.

    I wanna meet Fishdr, too. C'mon up to Seattle!

    I acheived a pony tail today! (sort of) It took some hair clips and there are little neck hairs flying around loose, but I have a 1 3/4 inch ponytail! (yes, I measured it. I'm a nerd.)

    That's a long way from 1 1/2 inch spikes all over my head.

    And even though I still don't have that much hair yet, it felt mighty good to get it up off my neck. Hot today. Feeling the breeze now.

    ...
    p....p....Ponytail? Ponytail equivalent to your spikes' length?

    ...I thought of you today when I henna'd my spikes, Knot. See, if you grow out your hair, and think a little about me and my spikes, and I keep my hair short and think about you and your ponytail, it'd almost be like I get to grow my hair out without freaking out and you can keep your spikes without looking like a bookend! It almost works!

    ...or am I just crazy?

    CWR!
    YAY! You saved the day! =D I'm gonna call you and harrass you again sometime, and call you Kayak Girl. =D
    I SWEAR I'll send that cider... just... not outta this paycheck.

    Kitsu - the hair thing is a great idea. (actually, I'd already been doing that... "waaaaah, I don't have spikes anymore! at least Kitsu still has 'em!") Gotta henna (White Mountain Mahogany) my silky locks tomorrow. Don't feel like it tonight.

    My incredibly gorgeous, tomboy femme, bike riding, late 40's, knock-me-over-with-a-feather-yummy voiced, upstairs neighbor (sigh, I have a little crush, can you tell?) has a gf that I don't think is worthy of her.

    Trek??? Trek, honey, come on up here! There's someone I want you to meet!

    EDIT: Oops, thanks Kit! Yup, its LIGHT Mountain brand!

    KnottedYet "Trek??? Trek, honey, come on up here! There's someone I want you to meet!"

    You are kidding, right?

    OK, S'cuse me TE gals while I talk to Knotted and anyone else who cares to join in this is TD after all

    1) In my 33 years of experience with batting for this team we hang in there and process things till it's gefilte fish You can't say we don't try. I don't think your neighbor would take a look at me and think "oh my, so this is out there, you're right I am too good for her. Why am I putting up with this byeeeee"

    And if she would that would be just bad karma.

    Take my ex for example, please I should have left 4-5 years before she left me. What was I thinking? It was not, could not and would never get any better. But I hung in there.

    One of the many traits I admire is women...and men who know when it's time to dig in the cleats and do the work or .... learn, go on and get the heck outa Dodge.

    2) She has a girlfriend. When she's single....and over said girlfriend....put the bikes in the Lez'baru and c'mon down here.

    3) No dates outside of the time zone oh, same time zone never mind.

    4) No dates out of my area code or at least the LATA.

    5) But I would love to come up to the PNW with my bike. Next September???

    but you were kidding of course so let's look into a PNW trip for Trek someday.

    My ex had valuable words of wisdom...
    "A relationship generally ends the same way it began, AND unless you learn, mistakes repeat."

    So... if she cheated on/left her gf for miz Trek, good chance of infidelity in the future (just an example...)

    It gives us all good incentive to either put work into the relationship or recognize the end before it turns ugly...

    Boy, these are wise words. I quaked whenI found out that my sister's 4th husband dumped "a fat homely older woman with a bad disposition" for her. (my sister is not homely but meets the rest of that description). My only hope is that he will get enough fatter and older himself that he can't pull the same stunt on her.

    Hey, how did my relationship start with the DH? He honked his horn at me
    and I honked back. We toot tooted all the way down the street until
    i realized he was someone I knew! I was just having fun.
    The rest... is history.
    (so is that how our relationship will end? Honking horns?)
