haha Vampy...you crack me up!!
PS I am going to show this to your mom...you called her old

It's ok, I can run faster than her so she can't beat the hell outta me.

ok. I am taking all of your comments seriously. It is nice to hear a little advice from others-i think. i am not too excited about an online guy either. i was starting lean more towards someone i could find through other people that I know personally. A couple of guys who may be interested are through my boyfriend's stepmom. She does business without of people and she a couple of guys in mind.

***also, I am considering tell her first. at first i wanted it to be a total surprise, but I have heard from more than one person to let her know ahead of time.****

I asked her in the past -if she would mind if I set her up on a date- she seemed ok with it. i asked her the preferences, etc...and she was cool......
i hope she knows I was serious about it. But she's my mom, and she knows me...so she knows i just might really do it.

hey thanks everyone again for the advice/comments. :)
