5/30/2022 22:31:43 Jackie comes into the shop, carrying a small cloth duffel bag slung up over her shoulder. She looks up and looks a little surprised to see Erin here this late. "Oh, hey Erin. I wouldn't have thought you worked nights?"
5/30/2022 22:33:26 Erin looks up and grins "I came in to check and see if everything was going ok" she looks over to the duffel bag and smiles "Do you need a key for upstairs? Did you and Lorna agree to share?" she smiles.
5/30/2022 22:33:43 Erin is having pulled pork nachos.
5/30/2022 22:37:38 Jackie pulls the bag down off her shoulder. "Oh, this? This is just a coverall and boots, I was going to store them in a locker here in case I had to do some work without running out to get them. I'm still staying at Stonecreek for now, there's lots of open room an I don't want to crowd Lorna when there's no need. Thanks though."
5/30/2022 22:39:42 Erin ohs and nodsnods "Trust me plenty of room upstairs but I get it.." she offers "Want some nachos?" she smiles "So you exploring the city getting on pretty good?"
5/30/2022 22:44:55 Jackie sets the bag on a chair, and looks at the nachos. "I actually just came over here from the Curry Corner, so any more food might put me into a coma. Yeah though, I've been getting around the city a bit. It's a bit more spread out and sprawling than I'm used to, so it's taking a while to get used to. I've still barely been out near the harbor yet. There's just a lot more than I could see or do in a week."
5/30/2022 22:46:30 Erin giggles softly and sagely nodsnods "yeah this place is fucking huge" she gestures to a chair "We have a lot of places we can go too shit there are even places I haven't visited"
5/30/2022 22:51:26 Jackie settles into the chair, stretching out her legs and crossing her ankles. "I don't think I'd have the energy to see ALL of it. I may check out that beach this Summer that... whoever I can't remember mentioned. I think it was Journey? I might need to get a bike before that though."
5/30/2022 22:53:40 Erin giggles "There are a lot of beaches and they are all very awesome" she nods "So have you ever rode a bike?"
5/30/2022 22:59:21 Jackie nods, looking almost insulted but smiling too hard to actually pull it off. "Sure, of course. But I spend more time on dirt bikes and smaller crotch rockets than on big touring cruisers like Lorna and Reno have. So I'd like to get some practice in sometime, test ride a couple maybe to see what kind I like. Hell, maybe I'll be an actual biker by the end of the Summer. I dunno."
5/30/2022 23:02:38 Erin laughs softly and holds her hands up "Sorry sorry.. I wasn't assuming" she nodsnods "There is the yard out in the back that you are welcome to practice at if you get a bike. There is a dirt bike back there" she looks thoughtful "No Harley though" she smiles.
5/30/2022 23:06:25 Jackie chuckles loudly. "Well, that's a shame, I've never ridden a Harley, I'd like to try one out some time. I don't know though, they might be a bit heavy, unwieldy. I'd want something fast, and light enough that I could stand it back up myself if I spill it. You know, stuff you don't have to worry about with a car."
5/30/2022 23:08:40 Erin nodsnod "That's the plan you always have to have a bike that you can stand up if you fall.. We can go look at Harley's if you want and see if you find one you might like? or we can look for parts and build one" she shrugs as if that wasn't a big deal.
5/30/2022 23:11:34 Jackie cocks her head to the side, considering that. "It might be cheaper, actually. I hadn't though about rebuilding from parts. I should wait to talk to Branton and Leif about the car project first though, I don't want to get too many irons in the fire at once. But yeah, cool."
5/30/2022 23:15:21 Erin looks thoughtfully at you "Car project?" she nods "Oh yeah Branton has all kinds of cool toys and makes some awesome shit"
5/30/2022 23:15:46 Erin shrugs "But the bike would be for you to ride to the beach I would imagine"
5/30/2022 23:18:54 Jackie grins at the thought. "Yeah, I guess it's not really the same thing at all, is it? Yeah, let's not worry about that now. Next time I bump into Lorna I'll pick her brain on bikes, see what she thinks."
5/30/2022 23:20:23 Erin nodsnods "If you want to rebuild from the ground up talk to her about what kind of frame and we can see what we find.. I'm good at finding that shit" she smiles.
5/30/2022 23:22:21 Jackie nods back. "Alright, good to know. I'll let you know once we have the beginnings of a plan.
