She’s sleek, she’s red, she fits in my purse, and her name is Delilah. I know that this could be a description of all manner of things from a vibrator to a pomegranate, but in this instance………..
I like that you give everything a name (who else has a name for their bike?) Now Delilah joins the family. I do that too. After watching “Training Day” with the always awesome Denzel Washington I called the shotgun I carry for bear calls “the bitch” just as DW’s character Alonzo does in the film. This was cool until we were on a backcountry trip with the kids and I asked my son to “pass me the bitch” within earshot of my wife. Anyway, Delilah is a babe.
hahahahhahaha
Did you get a black eye for that one????
(and yeah, you’re right. I name EVERYTHING!)
Now you never have to be without internet porn again!
The “appendages” will just look a little smaller……
I do the name thing too. Just makes it more personal. Plus I have a real empathy for inanimate objects. I get quite upset when I have to throw some major appliance or piece of furniture out. I still haven’t scrapped my camera I broke last month. We had so many good times, he and I. It seems…cruel.
@Veg- I feel your pain- it took me 3 years to throw out the junker camera I had all through a year in Europe, a 3 month road trip through the States & 3 months backpacking in South America. By the time I finally did, it was duct tapped together and the flash guard was a piece of clear plastic water bottle with medical tape on it. I actually felt guilty throwing it out.
Hey there Delilah…
Love it! How very fashion forward of you.
Lady in reeeeeeeeeeeeed… is dancing with you………
and it comes with a cute furry accessory dog. nice!
Hey I wanna know about you backpacking through south america. Isn’t that kind of F*CKING DANGEROUS?
We!have!the!same!netbook! 
Becky- Don’t they all?
Ree- You have EXCELLENT taste my dear!
LiLu- but are YOU dancing with me?
Mr C- Yes….. maybe a WEE bit dangerous. Particularily when I ran out of money and had to hitch-hike 1000klms through the atacama desert. Slept in an alley and another night under a tree in a gas station parking lot. Danger is all about how aware you are. I like visiting the poor areas and the non-tourist places, you just have to be clever and not put yourself in stupid situations (or, if you do, be able to talk your way out of them, which I am FANTASTIC at!
I’ve posted some travel diary excerpts (Greek islands, Barcelona, Poland/Auschwitz) I shall post S.A one day. I spent Christmas there, on the beach. And New Years on a bus in the middle of nowhere. There are some good stories.
LOVE It!! Jealous.
