my two days off.

[spacebug]

Had a full weekend.
Here is my weekend, mostly in list form.

-Dinner with parents
-Firefly viewing with cute girls
-Really really really awesome homemade present received from star5
-Breakfast and shopping
-Crafty project=new coffee table for spacebug and S4.
(Coffee tableage was sorely lacking in our living room environs, causing precarious beverage placement and more than one spillage. The problem has been remedied admirably, and really cheaply! Plus S4 got to use his new miter saw, which he was really happy about.)
-Celebratory snack placement upon new coffee table and viewing of more ALIAS

-Breakfast with the lovely S&M, visiting from Europe
-Work on secret project with star5

-On to RollerDerby!

Okay, I really don't remember the last time I had nearly so much fun at something that could ostensibly be called a sporting event. Knowing people on all but one of the teams, I just cheered for everyone, much like lokey.

And now... I kinda wanna join up. I can be fiercely competitive when I wanna be. And it'd be superfun to wear a cute outfit and kick some ass. And I could use the exercise.
But I doubt I'm in good enough shape or a good enough skater (though I know some of the girls are nearly chain smokers... I mean, really...), and even if I was, it's a huge time commitment- I already don't spend enough time doing the creative stuff I want to do, and their next recruitment push is when I'll be supersupersuper busy with the convention. And also S4 really doesn't want me to break my ankles, which is a good point. Man, how much would it suck to sustain a derby injury, like, the week before we left for Burning Man or something? 'Cause that's when it'd happen.

But anyway, it was really fun to watch and I'll definitely go again.

Tonight is my first yoga class with star5. I'm really looking forward to it.

Yoga! you two will have a blast. We do yoga before each practice. Gotta keep limber to avoid broken parts.

Thanks for coming out to our first bout. It is a huge time commitment, but our season ends in april. Summers off. wink,wink, nudge,nudge.JOIN... Glad to hear that you will be coming back to watch us kick ass for charity.

The season ends in April?
So are there only going to be a total of three bouts? :(

and i bet you get a lot of new recruits after last night.

Initially, when I heard about rollerderby (we have a league in NC, although I don't know that they are bouting yet) I was really intrigued and thought about trying to join. But then I decided, no, I don't want a bunch of people watching me while I participate in a sport. Too flashy for me.

I wish I could've had breakfast with S/M. I guess I'll just have to try to visit them again in Maastrict (as opposed to their empty apartment- they had to leave for the states just as I was set to arrive).

weeeeeeeeee!

Oh, he says he'd support me and everything and thinks I'd be a superawesome rollergirl- he just has to worry. 'Cause he looooooooves me. *beam*

Dunno. I might have enough hardcore points what with the motorbike and everything. C-stars is my bikin' buddy, so maybe I'll just get my rollergirl fix by going to the bouts and riding with the motorcycle contingent. That might be good enough...
