What did you do with your DII today?

well I do have one of those "he-bag" "man-purse" things. I tried to get a manicure once, about 10 years ago. I was rejected with this explanation, "ew, oh, you hand too hurt. me no do mani. you hand hurt."
I think my hands were too big and it would offset the profit, based on the surface area to work time ratio.

Wife says I need a manicure hmmm, .......... the wife cuts my hair with a #4 for the last 15 years now but I trim my own beard............ too near the throat .
I can see Dusty mincing along the street with a handbag ............ hmmm...........right. Not.
That's for pseudo pop stars in London driving their Chelsea tractors or their hairdressers cars.

Put it up for sale yesterday. I'm going to sorely miss her... I've had a CRAZY amount of calls on it. Priced it at $5800 and I've got 5 buyers. I offered it to the first one that had cash. They are arriving in a little bit. People were actually arguing in the WalMart parking lot yesterday when I parked it because they each wanted it. One guy actually said it was too cheap. Never heard that said before.
I stopped to park and place a sign in the window. Before I got out of the truck, I had three buyers. All three are willing to pay full price!!! Since it was Sunday, I took a deposit, and the rest is history.
For the record, just so others know how they sell around here (Placerville, CA - Sacramento, CA):
It's a 2003 DII S. It is Exceptionally Clean! Has 107107 miles on it. No rips, tears, or wear on interior, except for the brake lever boot. Exterior has a single door ding, otherwise, straight and shinny. Never had any body work done to it that I'm able to find. Just put new tires on it and sealed two power steering leaks, no other leaks at all. New front driveline. Did the cooling system upgrades (180 Thermo and Green Coolant). Never gets hot, checked with UltraGauge. It appears it was garaged it's whole life before meeting me. I've got it outside under trees.
I paid a little over $6000 from a dealer almost 2 years ago w 93k miles. I looked at dozens for a few months before deciding on this one.

They other day, I broke my pointing finger on my right hand. I thought I only dislocated it, so I popped it back into place. I have yet to go to the Dr, but I might have to. I've now got a piece of the socket broken off and it hurts pretty bad. It's sharp every time it moves around. At least it was not my Booger Finger. That would have sucked.
Because my German Shepherd is no longer a Small Puppy, she's a LARGE Puppy. And, her favorite things in the world are: SNOW, MUD, SAND, DOG/CAT POO, and any other really dirty thing she can find to play in. She'd LOVE a dead body!
Not to mention that I've learned Shepherds shed a full Squirrel Each and Every Day!!!
Every time we go to water or mud, it makes my head explode when she jumps in back. I've used blankets, plastic, etc, but my A.D.D won't let me sleep until I shampoo the back again. And since she's a Shepherd, she NEVER runs out of energy, so I am constantly carrying her places.
Yes, I use my LR differently than most. I do like to play in the dirt, but it has to sparkle afterwards.
I'm getting a 4 door pickup so when she's muddy, she's in back.
Likely a Tacoma so I can change oil once a year and not touch anything else. Also, I'll be able to fill up when I leave for a trip, and when I get back, not when I leave, when I eat breakfast, when I eat a snack, when I eat Lunch, when I use the restroom, when I eat another snack, dinner, phone rings, etc... You get the picture...

After years of broken bones, pain, blood and gore circuit racing motorbikes I've done with all the self inflicted 'beat ups' now. I'm ya confirmed wimp now and get patched up sooner. The last big race accident in 1972 put me out of business for 6 months with the first 3 months in hospital initially on traction with.......... a broken pelvis, broken leg, broken ankle, broken wrist, broken finger and major lacerations............that was enough for me...............end of bike racing career. Hit the armco barrier at 100mph+ and then the bike followed and hit me up the jacksie. Done plenty of other damage but that was my 'pièces de résistance' which trancended all up until then. Only had a couple of bad(ish) shunts after that when car racing but nothing too serious...........just a bit of concussion.........no brain found present to damage. Nearly got killed in a plane crash though in the middle east.................but that's another story.
