Moped moped? Seattle : Blood Drive 4


Time for a Seattle Blood Drive 4 update. Bourbon Bandits saved me with a half gallon of whiskey. That night, I woke up in a hammock, freezing cold. Met a few awesome moped chicks, Tiffany, Ann, and Arianna. Girls with mopeds are so damn adorable, I'm not even counting myself.

It was fuckin fun and I bonded with my Cuddle Puddle homeboys, who i heart more than ever.

Mike was the ambulance, and picked up all the poor little moped girls and boys that broke down. He was quite a hit after he decided to stop being a crybaby and let himself have a good time.

I can't wait until SF, the Creatures of the Loin rally.



Exhausting.

Motron is running fast, and i've been jetting to try to get it performing properly. It's not the easiest thing I've ever done. Mike comes home tomorrow so we can start breaking it in with fun rides instead of just errands and trips to and from work.

Rebuilding

Almost finished rebuilding the Motron. Just need to tighten down the flywheel and clutch, hook 'er back up and put on the new Polini top end I got up at Blood Drive - at Seattle Mopeds.

Everything else in my life is boring now compared to mopeds. I feel a bit crazy.

Busted out, already.

Motron is already broken. This was in the inside of the crank case. I think maybe it broke off of the crankshaft bearings? Still trying to work it out. Poor Motron. I'll be lucky if I can have it fixed by the time Mike gets back.

Bad as you wanna be. Moped numero dos!

I think it's pretty nice to have a rooster next door to wake up to in the morning. He also looks sharp running around in our parking lot. My roommate threatens to shoot him with the BBgun, which would be a damn shame.

Meet the newest member of the motorized family here at Schiller House.



Motron! He looks like he should be crammed firmly under the ballsack of Marty McFly: 80's-licious with those gorgeous mag wheels. He suits Mike well, who is now sporting some pretty rockin' steps after deciding to get a drunken haircut early the morning of the fourth of July.

Motron's going to need a little bit of elbow grease to make him look as dope as he oughta.

Also I decided my Sachs is definitely a bitch, er, female personality and temperament after she quit when Mike had been riding her. We both got our periods this week- after soothing her soul and rebuilding her carburator, she is running right again. And I'm feeling better too.

We are still looking for a top tank.

The guy that swiped that AMF moped from under my nose at the estacada estate sale just posted it on craigslist for sale. He's such a douche. He gave that poor chick a hundred bucks and some attitude for it and is flipping it for 400. Eww i really don't like the looks of the AMF though, so whatever, but some poor kid is gonna get ripped off.

New hobbies = love

Love= amazingness!

I am trying to not spend so much money on going out. I am just as happy to eat dinner at home and work on a hobby out on the patio on these warm summer nights. How can it get any better?

Stuff I found that I want, badly.


Cube World Digital Stick People

Nabaztag

These things look really fun to me. Nabaztag sends messages, delivered by a cute flashing bunny with waving ears. I wish I had my own office so I could justify having a little bunny friend on my desk.

Cube world digital stick people are like tamagotchis that interact with each other, communicating through magnets on each side. I want to see it for myself!

Mmmmm. Boyfriend.

I have been really accident prone today. I dropped my helmet, burned my leg on the exhaust, hit my knee, etc. I also looked like a doofus when I saw a dude on a bike wave at me, so I waved back. Turns out he was signaling a rigt turn. Eh, whatever. ;)

My stupid boyfriend gets back tomorrow, and as usual I am ecstatic. Yum that boy is so delicious it hurts to look at him. The fact that i like his soul is just an added bonus. I won't bore you with more stories about how absolutely divine my life is right now, I think three posts about happiness is too much. :)

I bought a basket for the moped, so now its less of a hassle to make short trips as I don't have to bind everything down with bungee cords, just toss things in the basket. I am starting to get annoyed with helmet hair though, my bangs stick straight up most of the day.

My boss called me this morning to thank me for taking care of his email spam projects while he is away, as I sent two out yesterday on my holiday (yes I've been off since Wed.) and they went off without a hitch. I thought it was awful considerate of him to be appreciative like that. I like working for Paul.

Time to clean house. Or, take a nap. hmmmm.

A Penis

I just can't stop loving my life. I wonder if I have some kind of problem, sometimes. The happiness just keeps coming and coming, and I have this giant shit-eating grin on my face half of the day, just because I can. I love what I've done with myself. Everything I do is to make myself happy, in the most basic of ways. I have become the person I wanted to be, at this age, and I'm keeping up with my expectations every day.

I can remember when I wasn't so happy, but I can't really figure out what the difference truly is.
