Posty! McPosterson!

Forgot to mention that we got the Harley back from the shop last week! Dana rode around by himself a few times, and to and from work, before he let me ride with him. Our first outing was fun but I remembered (too late) that Faith is not happy without the sissy bar. I tried very hard to be very Zen mentally and not move independent of Dana, while simultaneously holding onto his belt and trying not to think about falling off the back.

Yesterday, we went out to dinner, sissy bar in place, and it was great fun. Now I just need to find my deerskin gloves and fling those and a chapstick in my leather jacket, and we'll be good to go!

I perused helmets when we were picking up the bike, and found a black one with pink flames called the "Tuscadero," which I coveted equally for its feminine sensibilities and fabulous name. My helmet is brandy new, having just bought it before we garaged the bike for four years, but I'm considering having it painted. If only I knew any artists, painterly types who bellydance and are going to be at my house this weekend anyway...

I caught the broad hint...

But I will dig about anyway and see if I can track down the airbrush artist who painted my ex-boyfriend's goalie mask for hockey -- he did an absolutely amazing job, and charged practically bubkis for the work. :)

YAY girlie helments!

You guys gonna add a sidecar for the DorkyDawg? And get him a helment? Or at least some goggles and a Snoopy-esque white silk scarf? :)

Re: I caught the broad hint...

If we did, you can damn sure bet he'd have these!

But no scarf. He'd only eat it.

Scarfy snackies?

Not if you soaked it in Tabasco. ;)

Our Valley Girl (her name was actually registered as Jeron's Rode of the Valkyrie, but she was a total airhead, and thus her name) had a habit of eating my mom's shoes, and most especially her good leather pumps. After six pair going the way of the dog, Mom figured the expense was worthwhile to the cause, purchased a pair of shoes of the style she usually did, soaked them in a vat of hot sauce for a day, dried them out, and then put them in her closet floor where all other shoes resided.

She later found the dog outside, rubbing her mouth on the grass, and one set of teeth marks on her sauced shoes.

Valley never chewed shoes again. :) She stuck to her bones and toys after that, of which there were ::voice="El Jefe":: a plethora. :)

That is EXCELLENT. I just keep all my shoes in current rotation in the laundry room, because we keep the door closed most of the time (and Hagen hates tile floors). Right now I think there are 7 pairs in there, which is handy because it's right by the garage door and I tend to kick off my shoes when I get in the house anyway.

But I've got toothmarks on two pair, and he chewed through one of Dana's patent leather dress shoes. Wolfy toothsome beast.

His teeth are quite small and tame. And he is not a beast, though he is in need of a bath. Maybe before guests arrive?

Re: Scarfy snackies?

Says the man who accidentally whammed his arm into one just last night. Small and tame indeed.

We could work on a bath tomorrow evening. He's not at ALL skittish about the sprinkler. ::rollseyes::

Yeah. If only.

I like flames. I like paint markers. I don't have the airbrush kit *yet*, though it is on it's way to me soon. What say you?

[faithellen]

I think it would be coolest if airbrushed. I can wait. :)

[mydwynter.livejournal.com]

I get it in a couple of weeks. I can't wait...

The first two flame jobs? My stand mixer (heh), and your helmet.
