Speed IS the psycho dike!

Since Speed loves to write about us (and I'm not complaining), I think one or all of us should write a little bit about her. Because I love her and she IS one of us.

Speed is truly a beautiful person. And I'm not just talking about her looks. Although...truth be told, before I met her gorgeous female J, I made more than a few indecent proposals. But that's another story. She's beautiful on the inside too.
She's the best of friends. She would be the first person to drop whatever she was doing to help out a friend in need. Believe me, I've had to call a few times too many (and sometimes in the middle of the night) to get her to bail me out of a jam or pick me up somewhere. No matter what, where, or when, she would always be there.
She's super fucking talented too. Music, art, writing songs, writing stories...she's got it all. She's wild and crazy and just mad fun to hang out with. She is our Speed Demon and keeps us all living in the fast lane.

I noticed when she wrote about the party we threw for her at Starr's place, she failed to mention anything she did that night. She's like that though. Always highlighting her friends before herself. So who better to tell it than I...

Starr did try to fool her. We showed up at her mom's place and kidnapped her. As soon as we had her in the car, I put the blindfold on. Starr zig zagged all over the county until she got the text message that everything was set up.
When we finally got there, Bruiser carried Speed up the steps and into the house. Once we got her steady on those damn crutches, we took off the blindfold. I know she was expecting a party but I know she wasn't expecting a party like this. We called in all the favors.
She did sneak away some how but Walker quickly found her out back and dragged her back in. We made her jump in the pit and dance with us until she could no longer stand on her one leg. But then...
Starr took a stool up to the makeshift stage and Liz, the guitarist from my girls band, set up the mic and handed her the guitar. Yeah...Speed fuckin' ROCKED! (Inside note...I told Lani what songs I had heard Speed play before and Lani made sure the band knew them all. They knew most of them already anyway.) If you've ever read Speed's blog, then you have heard that song "Wasted" by L.P. that plays after the Tegan and Sara song. Well, she opened with "Wasted." She had us all on our feet. And then she went into "Crimson and Clover," the Joan Jett version but a little harder and a lot faster. It was hottttt! And I knew she couldn't do Joan without doing a little Lita Ford. "Kiss Me Deadly"...super sexy. The last song she played was that "All You Got" song by Tegan and Sara. She changed up the lyrics at the end and had us all singing, "This is the time of our lives."
She really blew the roof off the place.

The party eventually moved outside. Some of the party people took to the waves. The rest of us relaxed by the fire pit roasting marshmallows. (Its one of Speed's favorite things to do.) And, I'm not sure how she told it, but SHE started the mini marshmallow fight. And YES, we ganged up on her because we could and we love her that much.

I'm thinking that she didn't write about the quarter pipe ride because J probably reads her blog and J would most likely give her hell for being so crazy with that cast on her leg. (J, if you read this, I promise we were very, very careful with your girl and we didn't let her get too crazy. She did get home in one piece..lol.)

When it comes to anything that gets your adrenaline pumping, Speed is all over it. She is a true junkie and I mean that in the most loving way. Speed and Bruiser snuck away after the marshmallow fight and we found them on the top of the quarter pipe. We're still not sure how she got up there and Bruiser isn't telling. We walked up just in time to see Bruiser letting Speed go. She was sitting on the board. How she held on for that drop in is beyond me. And how she was able to turn that board in the air...got me? But she did, and she didn't crash once. She is sick...on or off her feet.

It definitely isn't a party without one of Speed's famous fireside stories. We all huddled in and listened as she told us about the day she got lost in the woods up there in that hick town J stole her away too. (No offense J. We still love you.) She had us laughing so hard that it was bringing tears to our eyes.

Before we took her home, Candy took her for a spin on her bike. Candy is crazy but I swear, sometimes...Speed makes her look tame. Candy swears she didn't let Speed drive (we all promised J we wouldn't let her drive a thing) but I find it hard to believe that Speed was satisfied riding bitch. Hmm...

Mad fun indeed. That is Speed. Love ya, you psycho dike.
