Hi. How are the cows?

Right. So I’ve been flirting with Reece, a futures trader. And as planned, I'm stepping away from geeky talk to something more meaningful…

Beautiful but Grumpy: Hey. How are the cows? x
(forgot to mention that Reece also runs a farm...)
Reece: Hey sweetie, cows are happy just now after some rain to make the grass grow; am embarking on an energy project next week, should be fun
BbG: Energy project sounds great and I’ll keep my fingers crossed for the rain for you. Been to any good bars recently?
Reece: only one; it was few days ago and I ran into this interesting girl who turned my head
BbG: Ha, ha. Sounds like it was special. Might be worth asking her out some time (to see if she really is that interesting or if it was the rum…)
Reece: Nah…it was the rum
BbG: At least you know exactly what works for you and it sounds reliable. You’re lucky!
Reece: hehe
BbG :-)
Reece: Don’t know when we can hook up but we should
BbG: Maybe when it’s raining so you would feel something is working while you are having fun!
Reece: Ok, cool. Shouldn’t have long to wait in the uk then…

I've checked the weather report and it looks sunny all the way to the weekend... My luck.

Hey, it's an English summer. As Reece said, you won't have long to wait.

Meant to add: But interesting that you seem to be chafing at the bit.

Gracias L&L! Como estas? Me gusta tu blog!

Hey Ian. I don't know the word 'chafing' so checked the meaning and get the following alternatives:
- to wear away or irritate by rubbing
- to annoy; vex
- to warm by rubbing, as with the hands

hmmm...

"Chafing at the bit" is a phrase used in its entirety to mean that you are keen to do something and can't wait to get started. A bit is what a horse has in its mouth and the animal chafes at it when it is ready to gallop.

Ya no tengo mucho interes en un pinche che y su vieja. Los ingleses son mejores y los mexicanos tambien.
