So I'm sitting in my hotel in Chicago after taking the train up. There was a 2-hour delay because of all the Ike backwash. I'm working up here through Tuesday and then heading to D.C. through Thursday. Sunday night downtown is way too dull.
When I first joined SG I ordered the Italian Villa DVD to share with my S/O. I had told her about the site and how cool I thought it was, how I felt free to be myself here and how it was very "us." We have never "acted our age" and here I found others just like us. I have some ideas for a photo set of her that she seemed to like (see below). So we put in the DVD and, unfortunately, it didn't include the great diversity of people, styles, shapes and sizes that I have found here. After awhile, she said it just made her feel old. Really bummed us both out.
So here's my idea for a set of her. We're both avid motorcyclists, riding beemers. Anyway, my idea is a set of her in her riding leathers and helmet, on and around her bike. She does a lot of her own maintenance on the bike so I thought we would shoot it at the motorcycle shop with tools, motor oil and so on. The kicker is, we often feel so out of place and anonymous with our own age group, and to represent that, she would never take the helmet off. Just the outline of an idea still forming.
