Scooter

While browsing in a store in Austin with friend Marcus, I'd point out different items to him, saying things like "isn't this cute!" or "look at THAT!" or "oh! cool!" When we returned to the car, Marcus handed me a box, mumbling something along the lines of "here, this is for you." He surprised me with his gesture, but I was more surprised and delighted when I opened the box:

"Scooter" struck me as a loner and I thought he needed some company. After digging through a box of Christmas ornaments, I found a life partner for him. Each time I look at the two together on that scooter it makes me laugh.

Yeah, I'm goofy like that.

hahahaahaha, that is hilarious! His life partner is particularly happy looking.

A pink flamingo on a scooter who has a life partner... Yeah, that's an every day sort of thing, isn't it? ;-)

One could easily surmise that it's my favorite toy.

Kat - nope, it's not an everyday sort of thing, and that's why I gave him one. :-)

Zoe - it's on-the-wall paper, but it's not wallpaper. It's a strip of printed wallpaper I have hanging between two windows... that's it. The rest of my home is wallpaper-free.

Brilliant - should you ever be thinking of a redesign, I'd vote for making that the centre piece ;-0)
