Love At First Scoot

I got a scooter! Her name is Sasha.... and I can't believed I've gone 3 years without her! haha. And now that the weather has turned warm, we'll be virtually inseparable. She was born on the first day of spring, being one of two paternal twins..... the other being "Danny Boy". She has since competed in one official LQ 100m drag race, and many other informal races (one with a gas powered scooter,,, but really, that's not a fair match up). Of her many races, she in the undefeated champion (even against her brother Danny Boy, but not against mr. Gas). She likes to sing when she scoots... so sometimes I sing with her so she doesn't feel silly, and recently she has had some feelings of insecurity (that she's an electric scoot scoot and not a gas powered scooter) so I've started making high-speed, engine-reving, gas-powered noises for her wherever we go (to the dismay of my roommate when she rides on the back and has to be seen with us). Scoot scoot has even proven to be a "guy-magnet" as roomie Andrea and I had a car-full of Chinese guys rolll down the window and whistle at us as we were scooting home! haha. I think that's one perk of scoot scoot's that I could pass on.
