Boxes

In love and romance we often place a lot of emphasis on a box. There is the "little blue box" from Tiffany's that means you spent a lot of money to express yourself, the heart shaped box of candy that means you didn't but still care- and who can forget about the school days love box of Sweethearts? They even had a heart shaped window and room on the back to write your valentines name, and, if you were brave, your own!




This week, for Shawn, another box of love has shown it's beautiful face and used its flaps to wink coyly. There is no modesty in this type of love, so come with me into our bedroom...


The Box:




Those of you who, like us, spend way too much time with or dreaming about being with your bicycles have already, by glimpsing the box, probably felt pangs of lust and jealousy. Hopefully you are happy for Shawn as well, even if it does not seem fair. Like many of you, he can not afford this box- let alone the contents, but fate intervened to bring the two together. It is petty to begrudge divine purpose!

Those of you who are more casual about your velo sports or do not ride at all are wondering what the hell I am talking about. For those people I will add a second picture.



Stay tuned.
