    Thanks, Trek! Me too! I would really like to be dating someone, not just going on a series of dates with a series of guys.

    I realized that I was so attracted to photo guy because he reminded me of some good qualities of my ex... alas, perhaps I reminded him of some bad qualities of someone else! As it turns out, his "Stay in touch" really does mean "I'll never be in touch with you again"! See? Who needs a universal translator?!

    Wow. That is just freaky. I don't even think there's an emoticon for that one!

    The date was nice. I can barely eat on these things, though. Can this be a weight loss strategy? When I come home and eat ice cream after? Saw Superman, which was more fun than I expected. Fun talking with this guy....no huge fireworks...but potential, potential.

    That twin story is freaky! We have a lot of twins here in my town. I know a ton of people with twins. But I've never heard of so many being born at the same time! Wow!

    Lise - glad to hear the date went well. Maybe even a spark? Maybe a bike ride will set off a nice chemical reaction???

    Mom and stepdad arrived - 10:30pm. Kids stayed up to see them and I didn't get to bed until almost midnight. That's waaaaaaay past my bedtime. Then - kids (who were sleeping in same room together) woke up at 6:30am and of course woke us up.

    MP - How's PP? Are you starting to feel better?

    Nanci - how did the 200K go? I'm anxious to hear how you liked the shorts...

    that twin story is freaky, but they are just becoming more and more common. I teach sunday school and in one class we have 3 sets (one set mine) and 1 set of virtual twins. According to a friend who works at IRI (information resources inc) the zip code just to the south of us has the highest rate of per capita twins in the nation.

    Glad the date was good, Lise. Let's see if Mr. P lives up to his name.

    Snap - the new signature line is fantastic.

    Fish - I can't stay up past about 9 - 10 EVER. I am such an early to bed, early to rise!!

    Feeling okay. More tired than usual. I think the drive to get the PP from camp was tiring. Slight chest pains, but nothing terrible. Headache from the medicine. Had to go get more blood drawn - I will have to do this every few days and then weekly probably while they figure out my dosage of the anti coagulants.

    I have to start back to weight watchers regularly. While I only had 10 - 12 pounds to lose, now that I cannot exercise for 2 weeks and then am going to have to do something other than ride my bike 10 - 12 hours at a time, I am going ot have to be more diligent and monitor things. Maybe this is the time I actually knuckle down and lose that 10 - 12 so that when I can get back on the bike I start off at a better weight at least.

    Sigh. The last time I took two weeks of the bike was almost exactly 2 years ago when we spent 2 weeks in France watching the Tour. The year before, we'd brought bikes and ridden a lot, but that year (04), we rented an RV and brought the PP and decided against bike for the hassle factor.

    That was the year Jean Marie LeBlanc drove over my foot with his car.

    Brina - what is a virtual twin?

    MP - How cool that you went to the Tour twice! What a great experience for PP. I'm glad you're not having terrible pains anymore. I hope they go away soon! Any prediction from the docs on how soon?

    Bedtime for me - usually 10pm and no later. We'll probably be up late while they're here. We're having a good visit at least. FishJr and my mom are playing games right now in the kitchen. I'm heading into the living room to watch the Tour. I missed the last half this morning.
