Thank you for the BD wishes for my son.
Lise- Congrats on the 1/2 marathon. I am sorry you are achey and congested. Feel better soon. It sounds as though Mr. Faraway can stay faraway. Hopefully coffee with Southern Gentleman will go really well.
Kitsune-I do like the Scot definition of glamour.

Annie - Flossie is named Flosshilde after one of the Rhinemaidens. I think Kitsune posted some links she found to them. Anyway, my Flosshilde is named after the Rhinemaiden in "Expecting Someone Taller" by Tom Holt. Which is a very funny book, by the way.
It was a stream-of-conciousness as I was falling asleep, it made marvellous sense at the time, and suits her beautifully.
I've gone on 4 rides so far (around 160 miles) and she has gotten admiring comments on every ride. She's beautiful. When I get her new tires on and have her all adjusted, I'll post a pic.

Lise - ewww, you had to kiss him? Ick. yeah, let's focus on Southern Gentleman.
(umm, I just realized my "ewww" was undiplomatic. but ewwwwww! kisssing a man! ewwwww! yeah, I have a bias. but ewwwww!
)
I hope Southern Gentleman is a gentleman, and doesn't have trouble sleeping or find conspiracy theories to be good first date topics. Asking you about your tri/running is an EXCELLENT choice of topic. A gentleman should talk about the lady, not about himself too much. And he should keep it light and entertaining.
You want me to give these dudes a little tutorial before they meet you?

I don't know you! Either of you! There are *very* kissable guys out there. Just ask, I'll tell you. I just get all creepy-shuddery at the thought of keeping them. ...then again, I'm sure there are some that don't need constant babysitting, either.
Then again, it's hard to beat being the stud of the house. *adjusts tires and fixes cars and bikes and kills spiders just to prove her point*
