Typical. I sooooo could have used that a year ago. Oh well; I'm happy
now.

Happy... why? Did you find your dream bike?

Was that Resound on the Cycling Central competition skit, pulling the
bike out from under the covers?

If only. Found a geek girl though

Congrats!

They're the second best kind!

(cycling and geekery would be the best. I'm actually (very) slowly
working on one of those)

She commutes by bike, about 17km each way. So she is, in fact, a cycling
geek chick. Who is a bibliophile. (I will never, ever, want for a book to
read ever again)

*looks smug*

I spent over 18 months single before I ran into her though, hence the
whinge. As I said, I'm happy now but there was a point in time when I was
climbing the walls.

And I suppose she's in the same city as you, also?

*grumble*

Or at least the same country?

*whinge*

Where did you meet? (I take it you didn't actually "run into her.") I
doubt it was cycling. The only guys I meet are the revheads, at the
traffic lights.

Mutual friend of a friend of a friend chance meeting. I have yet to work
out a social filter that tells me where intelligent women tend to hang out.
If you know of one, I've got a friend in his early 20s (medium level geek,
beginner cyclist) who could use some pointers. I've got no idea what to tell
him.

Oh Tam, they're the best ones. Pick one for me while you're at it.

And we're not talking about cyber-romances here - we're talking abou
stalking. What I am after is the latter...

The problem with intelligent women (and men) is that they don't "hang
out" - they are too busy doing cool stuff.

Probably won't help to tell your friend that.

What is -medium level- ?

I had a stalker once. He found me at puppy training. (Unfortunately he
was not a cute puppy.)

Excited about your weekend now?

Depends what you mean by 'intelligent'? Are we talking normal women
able to hold a reasonable conversation or are we talking rocke
scientists? I know for a fact that most of my girlfriends are too bus
having fun to really think about 'hanging out' if you know what I mean.
I think it's a bit harsh for anyone to say that they want someon
'intelligent' as in 'smart' or 'educated' etc. I know plenty of nice
sensible secretaries, hairdressers, teachers etc.

If you know of one, I've got a friend in his early 20s (medium leve
geek
beginner cyclist) who could use some pointers. I've got no idea wha
to tel
him

I know it sounds like such a cliche, but I would tell him to just hav
fun - that someone will come along when he least expects it.

LotteBum *vomit

P.S. So when do I get my stalker???!!!
