*grin*
Actually -- when I started, 35 was around the average age of the derby skaters! The newest batches have been younger, it seems.
I know I'm supposed to blush & say ... gee ... thanks! Unfortunately, I'll a little more blunt than that, usually. *grin*
I usually say "I know!" hehe ... but, thanks anyway! I have been able to pass for my younger sister (6 years younger) for a REALLY long time. Most people spend their early twenties & late teens trying to look older. Me -- instead of being upset that I looked up to 6 years younger, I enjoyed that fact ... when I'm in my 40's, I'll still look younger than I am & all the people that were trying to look older ... will! *snicker*

Oh, I wasn't playing any angle. I was just genuinely shocked. Granted, I've probably spent a grand total of a minute and a half actually talking to you... but you did come across as much younger than 33. Of course, I usually do too, so I shouldn't be so surprized; I'm 32 and people usually think I'm 23-26(bless their hearts...).
Anyway, see ya on the 14th for the semi-final. Hell Marys? Hell Yeah!
Do you have tix already? Or ... someone picking some up for you? The way we keep selling out, I would REALLY hate for you to drive all the way down here & have NO TICKETS left!! We only had about 8 for sale at the door last time.
Were you able to find some?atrax_narcissusSeptember 10 2003, 15:49:52 UTC
If not, let me know & I'll see if there is any way to leave one at the door ... but if I DO end up buying it, keep in mind that I CAN hurt you if you don't repay me! *grin* I'm BROKE!!
Re: Were you able to find some?chvytrukSeptember 10 2003, 20:04:27 UTC
Wow, how sweet of you! I haven't got one yet, but there's one more person I'm going to try tomorrow. I'll let you the situation know as early as I can...
Re: Were you able to find some?chvytrukSeptember 12 2003, 09:43:18 UTC
Well, I can't get a hold of my friend in Round Rock... can you still get me one? If there are any left and you can leave me one at the window, I will be forever in your debt (no that doesn't mean I won't pay you back...;-) and your first drink at Beerland is on me. Even if you're unable to, thanks for offering. Hope to see you Sunday!
WOW ... I will look ...atrax_narcissusSeptember 12 2003, 21:37:23 UTC
I know that they are DAMNED NEAR sold out. I just barely got one for my sister. I will know by tomorrow afternoon (I have to be at work by 4 -- that's Saturday afternoon, btw.)
Cheapo's is sold out & Playland (ever the polite place) cut me off with a Nope! before I could finish asking the question (on the phone). If they had said yes, I would have sent my bf up there to pick one up for you
( ... )
I asked Hot Wheels & put a message on our internal board ...atrax_narcissusSeptember 13 2003, 14:16:48 UTC
but it may be last minute before I find out.
Since I won't be around online after about 12 tonight (or at least, can't COUNT on being online), if you'd want to email your phone # to me @ tomax@rock.com or tomax@mindless.com -- I can call you by around 2 - 3 to let you know if I've had any luck.
OBY -- did YOU get lucky!!atrax_narcissusSeptember 13 2003, 14:57:31 UTC
& you need to bow & scrape to 8Track in thanks & begging for forgiveness! (hehe -- I got criticized for waiting until the last minute! I offered you up as the scapegoat! *grin*)
There will be a ticket at Will Call for you ... unless I hear back from you with a last name (tomax@rock.com or tomax@mindless.com) it will be under Travis/chvytruk.
& I'll just get the $ from you there ... or beat it out of you! hehe Regretably, I'm struggling too much financially to just be as generous as I'd like.

Thanks for reminding me. I'd better get on the horn to my Austin friends and see if someone can pick me up a couple of tix...
