Biker Girl

When I remember Heather at the Halloween party a couple of years ago I have to laugh. Her costume, expecially the tattoo sleeve seems so incongruous to who she is. But now that I think about it...there are some similarities with the stereotype. She is tough, strong-minded, a bit flamboyant and dramatic, ready to tackle things that others might consider too difficult or dangerous, spontaneous, holds on to her guy (though they don't have a motorcycle), is ready to adapt to whatever comes up, sticks up for the underdog, and accepts people where they are. And I am ever so glad that the tattoo effect is temporary. Heather, did you know that when you first walked through our door, I didn't recognize you? Talk about a double take! Heather is a multi-faceted person!

Holy Cow - great scott, Is that really Heather? The only thing I enjoy about Halloween, to be honest are the variety of costumes Heather seems able to create. I loved the first year Heather and Jake were together - the Han Solo and Leia getup were spectacular! Thanks for bringing back the fondeness of memories!

Hahahaha! Thanks for the great read . . .it totally makes me giggle!

P.S. People at work didn't recognize me either (which isn't as strange as family not recognizing me) but I would say hi to people and they would be like, "Who the heck is that?" Heehee.
