I heart my ridiculously fast scooter

I was going to go skiing with BF after work today, but I forgot I have to stay late and work until 8pm. I was kind of looking forward to going skiing again, since I had a lot of fun the last time … but I’m also glad in a way that I’m not going, because that would cost me another $25 that I don’t really have to spare at the moment.

So instead, I’m saving $25, getting a free meal and working an additional 3 hours in exchange for said free meal.

I rode my scooter for the first time to work this morning. It’s pretty cool living less than a 10 min. drive from work. When BF left this morning for work, shortly after 7am, I had time to enjoy two cups of tea and read the morning news on cbc.ca before I had to head out. :) Being able to get ready for work and have a relaxing cup of tea in the morning is such a luxury. And the coolest thing about riding my scooter is, most people don’t expect me to be able to go so fast, so when I roared by them on the Lougheed Highway this morning, I feel pretty badass. Well, as badass as you can feel while riding a scooter. :)

Also, I saw my scooter mechanic this weekend when I was back home, and he said he’s pretty sure my scooter (with it’s modifications) is the only one like it on the mainland, since his shop is the only one in the province that can do these sorts of upgrades specifically for scooters. I think that’s pretty rad.
