I think I'll get a bike
I've been thinking about getting a bike for a while now. I have an image in my head of the "ideal bike". A cruiser style bike that's, well, cute.I had looked around a little bit with no success until yesterday...
Loraine and I were walking around College Avenue enjoying our scoops of peanut butter cup ice cream when we came upon the Hank & Frank bike shop. They had a few cruiser bikes out front and we decided to go in and ask a few questions. Not only did we have the nicest salesperson but he was full of good information. After much consideration I'm feeling like this is the bike for me (see above photo). Unfortunately it only comes in white and red (and I HATE white...). In my head I imagined a pink or sea foam green bike but red will do, right?

Elvis has left the building
I've been remiss and am late in recognizing the anniversary of Elvis' death.
I love Elvis. No - I LOVE Elvis. Is it that he's the most handsome man I've ever seen? Is it his flair (and is the reason I love men with flair?)? Is it the sideburns and black leather suit in the 1968 Comeback Special? I just don't know...
- Favorite Elvis songs: A Little Less Conversation, Tiger Man, (You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care, In The Ghetto, Always On My Mind and Suspicious Minds
- Favorite Elvis Christmas songs: Blue Christmas, Santa Bring My Baby Back To Me and Santa Claus Is Back In Town
- Favorite Elvis look: 1968 Comeback Special (such fierce hair and sideburns!)
- # of Graceland visits: two
- # of times I heckled the tour guide about Elvis' death on the toilet: at least three
- Favorite Graceland memory: stealing a flower from Elvis' grave
