Good looking piece! My AD almost talked me into that very model when I was on the fence, but since I have a sub already, the DD won out, but not by much.

It looks great on you Chris, WG suits your skin tone well. I guess you will be having a "blue Christmas" but this is a very happy blue ;). Hope that foot is healing up well.

Blue Christmas indeed, I do tend to get myself the best presents.

The foot is heeling well, I can walk again without crutches, but I'm still limping and have a ways to go. At least I got the cast off my foot and can wear a suit again. Lol

Hahaha, sorry about the late text. The video was too good not to share.

Took these, they're better than the first...

I did send the video, any idea how hard it is to hold a camera phone while peeling stickers. Almost rocket science.

I keep forgetting that all my phones are still 917 so I can understand Mrs. Femstar's concerns. it was only 11pm. I'm really sorry, but I was downright giddy last night when I decided to keep it.

Thanks everyone. It has been a delight wearing this today.



I know this was directerd at someone else, but I really do like the 116718.
Fun times! Enjoy that beauty again for many years to come! it! Chat soon!
