Dream ...

I'm a motorcycle girl ... and I want a motorcycle guy. Sigh. Is it too much to ask for? I guess, right now it is.

There's this picture that one of my riding friends posted on her wall this morning. As I looked at it, I couldn't help but think that I want that in my guy. Whomever he is. I want us to share in the love of motorcycles as well as in the love of us, you know?

Anyway, this is the picture I was referring to ....
Posted on Facebook - not sure where it's from.
I think the cosmos are all out of line for this at the moment. I'm in a place of organization and, unfortunately, getting my bike and learning to ride is way at the bottom of the priority totem pole.

Not saying it's not my passion anymore, it most definitely is. But, I have other things to take care of first. Work now, play later.

So, until the divorce goes through and I get a couple other things out of the way, my dream of finding someone to enjoy this sport with me will have to wait. I guess it will teach me some much needed patience. I am always practicing the art of patience, and it isn't always easy. But, I try.

Tomorrow is bike night and I am missing it, yet again. For a good reason, though. M and I will be attending B's first pumpkin carving night at her school. We need to bring our own pumpkin to carve, but the school will be serving pizza for dinner. B is very excited! 

On Saturday night, my friends are doing a first ever, costume ride. This should be interesting as I had a hard time coming up with a biker-friendly costume. Finally decided on one a few nights ago. It shouldn't be too hard putting this costume together ....

Yup, that's the chick from the 'Gangnam Style' video. I'm gonna be her. I learned the dance and everything! Don't really care if I look ridiculous doing the dance all over the place (which I will be), I'll be having fun.

My actual costume for Halloween is kind of still up in the air. If I can get to the fabric store in the next few days, I might be able to pull off "Athena" from Immortals.  I don't know though .... the hardest part of that costume is her headdress. Although, I am especially great with doing headdresses, I don't think I'll have the time to get this one looking and fitting perfectly. 

So, I still have my back up plan .... "Nefetiri" from the Mummy Returns. I have done several of Nefertiri's costumes in that movie and used the headdress/mask that I made to go with each costume. The mask always scares the living crap out of people. I absolutely love it! Wore it to work last Halloween and freaked everyone out every time I got into the elevator. It was great. 

I'll try to dedicate a post just to Halloween and all the costumes I've done over the years. It's one of my favorite holidays and, up until B was born, I made my elaborate costumes and, M and I dressed up every year. After B, it was pretty much all about her. Other than taking her trick-or-treating around our neighborhood, we really don't do any fun adult Halloween stuff like going to Waikiki or the Crazy, Sexy, Ghoul ultimate Halloween costume party. Haha, so this costume ride on Saturday should be a good time ... different, anyway. 

I think I'll wrap this post up here. Forgot how I love using pictures in my postings ... I'll try to do that more! Happy-almost-the-end-of-the-work-day!!
