it was like a movie. It was horrible sleety rain outside, but I was going to brave it anyway — the path to the Skating Rink is a side road, straight shot, so it would have been fine as long as I took it slow. I checked — yup, still rain. I got my towel and camera and cell…
Miss Kitti Sunrise lends me her shoulder I was exhausted yesterday. Black Wednesday came and went, and it was a horrible freaking day. I had stayed up into the wee hours curled up in a blanket on the couch, watching Season Two of Dexter. I knew I wasn’t going to get much sleep, and I preferred to wake up…
…and a new lj profile pic to go with them! Yay! It was like magic. I was the wind on magic skates. My new skates weigh about 50 lbs less than the house skates, the ankle support is amazingly stiff (I look forward to breaking them in), and THEY HAVE PURPLE WHEELS.

Sk8er Grrls: Kitti, Lee, & Lillie In hindsight, I should have thrown my wings in the backseat. At least then I would have been prepared for Halloween Skate Night! I figured it would be our usual crowd of nobody–and less than nobody because Cherie and the gang had popped off to the Brentwood Roller Rink for the evening. Turns…
Wobbly Jenny tries out the speed skates I had been looking forward to last night’s Skate Night all week long. By Monday at 4pm it had already been a helluva week. We invited about a billion people to come with us, but in the end it was just me and Jenny (a.k.a. "Jenger Snaps"). Not that we minded too…
Lee on Wheels I was thirteen the last time I went roller skating. It was the summer before high school. My self-esteem was so low that I forced my parents to sign me up for summer school gym, so that I wouldn’t be forced to get undressed and shower in front of other girls like we were supposed to…
