I bought the same bike 3 months ago and I love her! Don't you just love the color? I think she's a very pretty bike. And I agree...fast too!
Really the only thing I've had any issue with is the front brakes. I just switched to Kool Stop pads and I'm getting a complete new front brake set-up for free from Trek (there's a thread in Bike Maintenance with details if you're interested).
Enjoy!!!!

I love the color, too. My mountain bike is a Trek 4500 and it's blue, too. Lighter, so they compliment each other.

Oh, when I finally did talk to hubby about it, he immediately started counting the bikes in the garage...two project bikes, two mountain bikes, the two hybrids which got us going. He has two and he doesn't even ride that much. lol. But he loves me and lets me do anything I want.
I will definitely check out that thread about brakes. I think I've peeked in there and I was thinking how noisy they are just this morning.

I bet you feel like you are flying now! Congrats! I loved the part where your husband didn't call in time. How much time did you give him? "Honey, I waited and waited an ENTIRE minute!"
Just a side note: don't you just love those Skechers shoes? I have them in a zillion colors!
