#312...The LATE scalzihead weekend assignment #4..

Weekend Assignment #4: Share the most memorable birthday present you've ever gotten -- or given (extra credit for both).

okay, i was sick for this assignment - it's late - so shoot me.

but in a nutshell...my best birthday gift EVER was my old blue bicycle's overhall - (cause in those days - we just didn't go out and buy new stuff whenever - we handed them down)...

anyway - Dad and me went down to the hardware store of all places, and bought some really, really cool RED bike tires, a new RED sparkly banana seat, some new multi-colored handlebar streamers...and....*and*...a toy engine that made realistic motor sounds...

the *coolest* RED skid marks ever!  all the boys in the neighborhood were jealous and kept bugging to ride it...

plus I got some clothes and dolls and other junk - but that damn bike was the best.

Now that's MY kind of birthday present.

I actually had two bikes in my childhood.  Both were pink.  I HATE pink.  And neither made motor sounds.  ::sigh::

Red tires, that IS cool!  Bet you were the most popular girl on the block that summer.
