Trek, you crack me up. I can't even sit on the carpet without running my hand over the carpet and making the "coke line" of dog hair as you put it.

As for the vacuum, Xena (named after the warrior princess but a chicken at heart) is terrified of the vacuum cleaner. My ex used to chase her around the house tormenting her as a pup. Zeus just thinks I'm playing and starts barking and pawing at me. Goobers. I use the shedding comb on her in the summer and I can stuff pillows with the hair that girl loses.

But alas, we were talking dates....

Bikerchick, way to go on date #3! I have a coffee date tomorrow so wish me well. This guy is in limbo. Just moved back to WI from CA cuz his mom has cancer and he's the only single kid. So he's living at home helping her out and looking for a job. He's athletic but not necessarily a "biker". But I will keep trying.

Lise, score on the first date! Let us know how it goes. I hear you on the bitter cold up here - it's crazy (although it gives us good reason to cuddle up you know!).

Trek - uhaul - I'm still laughing....
