    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...

    I dreampt about triathlons last night. Nice dream.

    My buddy really liked her IronDogs titanium tri bracelet, and wore it all day yesterday. I wear mine all the time.

    Narcissistic moment du jour: when I put my hands on the sides of my ribcage, all I feel is ribs. No padding. I wanna weigh myself. Don't have a scale.

    I want muscles like Jessi Stensland. Does that mean I have to exercise?

    And why haven't the gorgeous hotties descended upon me yet? C'mon! Where's the dang flattery and fawning that's supposed to be my reward? Guess I'll buy some more stuff for my bikes instead. Instant gratification.

    Trek my dear, if you'll tell me your bike(s) names they can be literary fodder, too.

    I met Jessi Stensland a few weeks ago at the VisionQuest grand opening here, and in addition to having arms (and just a body in general) that I covet, she was just the nicest person! We chatted about being swimmers-turned-triathletes, and the importance of core strength. She was just very cool.

    I now have her arms in my head whenever I do anything upper body, or more truthfully, when I'm about to bail on doing something upper body! Come on, LynneK, just get on with it!

    I've never put much stock in the importance of role models, but she sure qualifies for me.

    beta, here's a mission for you: try on all the wind/waterproof running type pants at REI and tell me wich on fits the best and the waist doesn't go above the belly button.

    now you have a reason to go to REI. thank you.

    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?)

    I'm not sure, but I think it feels good that I'm friends with my ex, and dgf is friends with hers (not that I'm fond of her ex...) and speaks well of our being able to admit when things 'don't work' and being able to gracefully move on.
    I admit I was thisclose to seriously damaging my sister's ex when I heard him tell a friend he "just lost 140# of ugly fat". He's an army boy, so I had to re-think the whole "remove his arm and beat him with it" thing, but yeah.

    I think what my husband meant was if you start a relationship by cheating on your ex 'for' them, the relationship will likely end in infidelity, too... (love easily won is easily lost) ... if you *suddenly* fall in love, you can *suddenly* fall out of love, if you start a relationship based on sex, it might end because that base disappears, or if you start as friends, if you end, you'll hopefully end as friends, as that was there all along...

    He was pretty wise for a 20 year old guy... just no **** common sense. He'd say the same of me, I'm sure.

    Lise - the pic I saw was in a slide-show on her website a couple months back. There was no swimsuit involved. At least not from the mid-rib-cage up.

    But the one you posted is just fine!

    'Scuse me, i gotta go do some back flyes and back extensions and shoulder externals...

    EDIT: Kit, go check out the OT.

    Oh, you're right! I've seen that one, too! That's why this one looked "off". I thought it was the building in the background...but it was also the clothing in the foreground!

    If I ever have such a picture taken of me, I will be well clothed. Hmmm, does back fat show as much when you're lifting something over your head? I'll have to ask my sister to take a bunch of pictures of me hoisting the bike, once I know I can do it without injuring either self or bike!
