No? No one wants to share any stories? I took a motorcycle class today, and actually didn't do to bad. It was a lot of fun. I think I might actually look into getting a motorcycle.

Motorcycles? Let me tell you a story. 
As a kid, I wanted to learn to ride so bad. And I wanted a motorcycle just as bad.
Shortened.
I borrowed a neighbor's little Honda. I'd learned all I could. Thought I knew enough. I took that little booger for a spin. I had a few spills. I never told my neighbor or family about the joy ride. Or where in the Ohio river they may still find that little Honda.

That sounds like a fun class!

My twin visited this year on May second our birthday. She brought her awesome fiance. The three of us went to an antique shop. It ended abruptly but we all had fun. She said she and her fiance will visit again soon. I can't wait. I love my twin sister
I talked with my older sister on the phone. Shes not blood related but we are siblings don't let anyone else tell you different. We both agreed her child could call me Bibi. A gender nuetral alternative for aunt/uncle.
I started college!
Sitting on the veranda in the shade from a glorious warm sun in an azure blue sky, not a cloud in sight and a gentle, cooling breeze blowing.
Hubby by my side, the children out exploring the forest.
Chirping of birds and a woodpecker in the forest, bees buzzing around the lavender.
Peace rules this little corner of the world.
One of the good memories i have repeating itself at this moment.
Last week we held an international BBQ ostensibly for French and German neighbours. Though throughout the afternoon we had Dutch, south African, American and Canadian visitors.
An eye operation, a fortnight ago, my sight is improving rapidly. I can see without the haze of cataract

Me too! We have that in common I guess.
Although, some days I do worry I won't.
It was, I had a blast!
I seemed to take to it pretty easily. I learn very well hands on. Now I can inspect, start, and get moving on a motorcycle; up through breaking, shifting, clutch work, and turning.
All in two hours ^_^
I don’t. This body will die. Worrying about it does nothing but manifest suffering.

I set up a tent in the woods in early March once as a teenager. In Maine, there's usually still snow on the ground, but it had been a warmer year. I woke up late at night to the sound of what I thought was rain, and I had to pee, so when I exited my tent, I realized it was snow. When it snows, the woods become pretty clear, and the trail ahead of me was beautiful, fantasy-like. As I was watching, a white fox walked onto the trail, looked at me, and sauntered away.
It was pretty cool and I always enjoy thinking back on it.

I used to live in da 'Hood; an affectionate nickname we had for our old, bustling, slightly run down and loud old neighborhood. There was always something going on, booming bass, voices, kids playing, people going to and fro. It had its flaws, but it was overall lively.
Snow in Iowa always happens, and it was time for a snowstorm. It was a big one; big enough to get most people to stay home. For whatever reason, I decided to go for a walk late that night.
I remember the silence. The normally busy road was empty, other than the cars that were parked in it. The snow fell heavily, though without wind, so even the trees were still. The amber street lights played off the whiteness, making a mystical kind of atmosphere. I had the good sense to wear heavy pants, and remember the lightweight, flaky snow softly pushing off of my legs as I went along the unshoveled sidewalks.
It was all somehow magical; alone, but not. In the open, but somehow feeling closed in. It was my same old Hood... but it had somehow been transformed.
The next morning, the streets had been plowed, the sidewalks shoveled, and the snowstorm had moved on, but I'll never forget that brief late night walk.

It's similar in the country, just with occasional snowmobiles.
I LOVE walking around during snowstorms. Like you said, it's magical.

I'm normally somewhat adverse to cold and snow, but it was just the transformation... it was like the spirit of the neighborhood was sleeping, and a new one was doing its job while it slumbered.
With today's gas prices, that might be a good idea.
What kind of bike are they using in the class?

Ah. Mine was simply cataracts. The second op needed a stitch. That was....painful. Actually I also had stents implanted at the same time. Sort of guttering to treat glaucoma.
Three problems, only one and a half seen to
1. Red bleeds, anything with red in it has a red smudge/halo around and within it. White contains red so letters are an illegible smudge, green eye glasses make it much better.
2. Eyesight in both eyes is pretty poo, right +3.5, left +5.5. so the glasses also work as glasses.
3. I got shrapnel in my left eye, over time the damage had caused a cataract. That was seen to, the new lens also fixed the poor sight in that eye.
So now I'm +0, +3.5, which is better than I've ever seen.
