Skaters gonna skate
It's been......*phew* a while.
And simultaneously a lot and very little has happened since my last post.
I'll get the crappy job stuff out of the way first. Job is still really crappy. There, done.
The main other thing I've been up to is my skating practise. it's been going really well. When the weather was too insanely cold I skated in the old scout hall next to the school. A bit on the small side, but I can now stop when I want to and do tight little circles.
I've also found a tennis court (with no net) in the playing fields across the road from my house. As long as I avoid the holes where the net goes I should be fine.
I was also able to go to another London Rollergirls bout. It was, of course, awesome. They also put online the video of the first bout I went to. And you can even see me. Sort of. Kinda. I'm a vague purple blob at floor level visable about twice.
And in the latest vid I'm even more visable. At the end when they're doing the skate past you can see black hair and bespectacled me in my grey sleeves.
Had to miss the latest bout on saturday, which is one of the many reason job is still crappy. (I think I'm gonna have to have an embargo on mentioning my crappy job, like I have to go five entries without mentioning it and its crappyness).
Anyways, regular blogging is going to be a goal again. Expect the first line of my next entry to be a light remark about how well I am or am not keeping to that.
Peace out
