In derby, when you're wearing the pivot panty and you're lined up on the pivot line, waiting for the whistle to start, every other blocker who is not a pivot has to have their hips behind yours.
Today, in the usual scramble to make sure that someone is a pivot, Bella tossed the panty to me, and I put it on with about 5 seconds to spare. Then I noticed that none of the opposing blockers were looking at me. Not a one. So I snuck my hips back as far as I possible could, and completely RELISHED the next few seconds as the refs frantically called most of the opposing blockers for false starts.
I also relished going into the wall. Can't remember who hit me, or how it happened exactly, but all of a sudden, there was the wall in front of me. So I just turned, hit the wall with my arse, back and heels and bounced straight off and back onto the track.
Good scrimmage. It was good scrimmage.
