yay!

Derby was really fun tonight.

I am starting to suck a little less at push-ups.

I need to skate lower and hold my arms in when I hit.
I made a few girls fall over. It's quite satisfying.

pants_of_doom has PTSD from being shot by the cops, and she's been skating off and on with Boston and Maine.

And she's another broken ankle!

She asked a question, Simone, and I provided an answer. How about you keep your crazy venom about me out of other people's LJs?

I have no idea why people think that you're nuts.

Oh, I see. I didn't notice it was you that made the initial posting. I was trying to be helpful to someone I didn't know.

Weirdo.

I would have been irritated at anyone. It's not about you, it's that I'm sort of tetchy about the PTSD; and anyone thinking that all trauma is the same, that's irritating.

I have no idea why people think you're self-centered.

Because I try to be humble when accepting compliments, and use self-depricating humor all the time?

Yay, the nameless masses have been brought out on both sides! Now let's both stop polluting Caly's LJ!

I'm fixing this because, although it was not an unreasonable assumption to make, the fact that I thought you knew it was me that posted the initial comment misguided my response to you. In that context, you would have been saying something extremely obvious, which looked patronizing; also, it bugged me that you would bring up something in a public post that a friend of mine only posts about to their flist. The latter issue is not for me to discuss further really, but I do apologize for the former. It should probably have occurred to me that you wouldn't do that, and that there was information missing from your viewpoint.

The gist of the remainder is: PTSD isn't the same for everyone. I'm quite sure it'd be easier for all involved if it was. I'm not willing to put myself or any nice roller girls through the experience of Losing My Shit if I try out unprepared...
