I wasn't sure when I'd see you here, Deena, so I dropped a birthday greeting over in LJ.
t maximal hugs
Tell me more good stuff about me.

Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

My husband, who's a pretty decent rider, says you aren't a qualified, "real" motorcyclist until you've dumped your bike
Does it count if you're the passenger? We hit black ice when trying to avoid an idiot and went down. I had to use the bumper of the minivan that had skidded to a halt behind us to balance to get myself up.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
juliana, darling, I am so glad bike dumpage did not result in damage to either your shiny new motorcycle or you. Now the first one's out of the way and you know what to expect.
Had mine yesterday, and I think it was the first one I ever went into without that feeling.
The niggling doubt has decreased every year, but I can't seem to make the damned thing go away completely. I know I do a good job, and I know I don't screw up, but my stomach doesn't listen to my head and riles up the butterflies anyway.
Last call: If anyone wants a postcard from Italy, reply in my LJ or forever hold your peace. The entry is flocked, so let me know if I need to add you. [link]

Granola:
I swear I've said this, and I keep realising I haven't, but lots of ~ma to Kristin and ND on the moms front. It's a lot to deal with, especially if you're not *there*.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Happy birthday, Deena!!!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Happy Birthday to the wonderful Deena! You add so much to the board with your wit and support and your heart.
Juliana--congrats on your first lay-down!

Happy birthday, Deena! May the day be as wonderful as you are.

Thanks--we ate In n Out burgers on folding chairs in our new yard, and planted the bouganvilla and duranta plants our realtor left for us as a house present. It was WONDERFUL.
