Yay!
Hope things work out for you. 
Yay!
Hope things work out for you. 
Congrats, Incubus! Sounds like you’re as excited about your new woman as I am about my new man . . . ain’t it cool?
This part rocks!
Actually, in that case wouldn’t penis ensue? 
Oh, he does.
The whole movie is in Esperanto, and Shatner speaks the same way in Esperanto too. And his accent was terrible. 
Oh, good for you. I was going to say take it slowly and carefully, but what the hey - go for it!
I’m going to go hug my husband that I met at loveataol.com. 
Etymologically, yes, but they are each generally described as descending upon their victims. (Unless that was a reference to other activities…)
Update:
Sunday evening I planned on visiting her and her parents at her parents house. I was supposed to time it so I got to her house not long after she got back from work. However, cruel fate stood to thwart my efforts once more.
The problem arose on Pacheco Pass. This is a fairly narrow, 1 to 2 lane road that runs east-west across California. It goes through some mountains, and the whole area seems perpetually foggy. As if it weren’t harrowing enough having to navigate a narrow, windy, foggy road (much like Highway 17 for other Cal Dopers who know what I’m talking about) there was an ACCIDENT that happened not long before I started down the road. When traffic first stopped, I immediately called my friend to see if he knew what was going on, so I could get an idea of what the delay was. He couldn’t find out anything. I then left a voicemail message telling Ms Right
that I was stuck in traffic, and would, unfortunately be delayed again, for an indermined amount of time, but would continue on and get to her house as quickly as I could. Traffic was stop and go for TWO HOURS :mad: which was spent agonizing over the fact that she had her mom cook me dinner and I was supposed to be eating with them, but instead I was stuck on a road that lost cell phone reception, zero radio reception, and no choice but to simply ride out the delay and hope it wouldn’t take long. After what seemed like an eternity I reached the accident; seems a tanker truck jacknifed, blocking BOTH lanes…CHP was redirecting traffic past the wreck by going on the shoulder. After I got past that, I tried to haul ass as best I could to make up for lost time.
Getting to her house took longer than I thought, and not just because of the accident. She lived much farther than the restaurant I had met her at, so when I thought I was ‘almost there’ when she called, worried about me, it turned out I was still 30 minutes away. She lived in a very rural area and combined with fog, made finding various streets difficult if not impossible. In the end her dad took her and drove his truck out onto the main road I was pacing back and forth on (trying to find their street in the fog), found him, and followed him back to their place.
They set aside some food for me and I ate. I had been worn out from being on the road for over four hours, and hadn’t eaten for some time. We watched a DVD with her brother, and I also played the piano for her family. Her brother asked me when I planned on leaving, and I sighed. My delay was so great, in order to get home at a not-even-remotely reasonable time I would have to pretty much turn around and go home as soon as I got there. I didn’t really want to do that, in part because I wanted to spend time with her, and also because I had been driving for over 4 hours and the last thing I was looking forward to was several more hours of it, late at night. So I told them I’d probably just find a motel on the way back and sleep there, then continue home the following morning. I called my work and told them I wouldn’t be able to come in Monday morning, that way I could get a full night’s sleep and wouldn’t have to rush to get home.
Her mom invited me to stay the night with them, and I gladly accepted. They set out an air matress and I slept in the family room. The next morning I had a little quality time with her (she took half the day off school to spend the morning with me
) before I had to leave. Her father gave me directions back, which was MUCH FASTER than the way I had originally gone. I’m pretty confident that if I can dodge Bay Area traffic, I can probably cover the distance in 2.25 to 2.5 hours; still quite a lot but still a fraction of the driving time I’ve endured this weekend alone.
Oh, and Eleusis, she is a woman. Trust me on that one 
Way to go, Incubus!
Now that you’ve suffered the Slings And Torments Of Fate on the Pacheco Pass highway, you can return with her in better weather (beautiful scenery there!) and treat her to some garlic ice cream in Gilroy. 
I can acknowledge when I’m simply a wrong jerk. I really didn’t mean to be a jerk, just something struck me as suspicious.
Congrats Incubus.
Have fun, and I wish both of you all the best.
Cheers
I talked to her earlier this evening, and she is going to visit me in San Jose!!! :eek: 
She had Jury Duty this Wednesday, and thus had to take time off school/work to accomodate it. But surprise surprise! She was able to get out of Jury duty so she’ll be able to drive over and visit for the evening (and spend the night!
) so I am very excited.
w00t! 
Way to go Incubus. Keep kicking ass on all of our behalfs. Take so many names that you can compile a phone book afterwards, sell the suckers for a profit, and then buy your little lady something special
.
The next step is to get her hooked on World of Warcraft. Then even when you’re apart, you can be together!
Well, this Wednesday it is looking like a repeat of last Sunday except here in the Bay Area. I hope she doesn’t have as much trouble getting to my house as I have had getting to hers!
I do have to work, unfortunately
but the upside is that my work shifts are short; she’ll be arriving some time after I get done Wednesday evening and staying over till Thursday (YES!!!
)
Oh, and something :smack:-worthy: I talked to her on the phone last night, and she was mentioning how she tried calling me earlier. Apparently my cell phone fell out of my pocket in my car and was ringing and ringing and I didn’t even know about it. Which is a drag because had I picked it up, she would have mentioned that she could have come over a day EARLIER because she didn’t have school that day (darn!) oh well, plenty of more opportunities until then. She did point out to me that it is ok if we can’t see each other EVERY day; it would just make the obvious scheduling conflicts that will arise that much harder to deal with. I myself am having to struggle with the fact that I scheduled myself so much work this month (because I thought I would be doing absolutely NOTHING in January) and now I’m kind of backpedaling on that by asking for time off. Time to adjust the February calendar! 
Am I the only one that thinks something odd is going on here?
Second date, he meets the parents and *is invited * to stay the night by the parents?
I hope you don’t wake up in a bathtub full of ice and sans kidney, but in the meantime: congratulations.
