I own a motorcycle! A 1990 Kawasaki Vulcan 500. Hehehe, now all I gotta do is get a permit and I can ride her. My dad's gonna help me out with this and I'm very excited. Word's can't really express how happy, excited and nervous I am at the same time.

Here's a picture of what she looks like, except she's blue.

In other news, I've been plotting and thinking for a story idea I plan to actually write into a novel.

the world's a bit of a steampunk world where clockwork and steampunk tech is mixed with magic. in the world, there are a number of people who own time pieces, clocks. they are designed into eyepatches, belt buckles, rings, pendents, or the standard pocket watch or wrist watch. These clocks are special. when activated and opened, they give the user a special weapon, armor, or a guardian to fight for them. the owners of these clocks are known as Timekeepers. There were thirteen original makers of these clocks known as the Watchmakers and each one had a guardian or enforcer known as a Guardian of Time. The thirteenth's gone missing and he was the main enforcer. He kept the others in place and ensured they used time justly. The idea is, he returns after his long absence.

I'm thinking of a dark mad hatter look for the thirteenth with a black top hat. and maybe a long coat with armored shoulders or something. His reason for disappearing is simply that "I angered time, she will not listen to me anymore." I may throw some western influences in, and some slightly modern weaponry like pump action shotguns. I don't think I'm going to go anywhere as recent as machine guns or automatic pistols.
