We Be Rollin!

I had a BLAST tonight. I went roller skating. Soooo muuuuch fuuuun! I mean, the skates definitely could have had better wheels, and some sort of insole inside to protect the arch of your foot from riding along the plate the entire night, but aside from that, is was tons o' fun! I don't think there was really another adult there aside from the manager guy. I'm not counting the ladies I went with either. Just about everyone there was somewhere between 4 and 16 years old. Staff included (minus the manager). Kinda crazy, but luckily no fights broke out.

I have loved loved LOVED roller skating all my life. I just never got back into it after I turned 16. It's been over 10 years people! (I'll only be 29 this June, don't worry, I'm not THAT old.) I am most certainly giving credit to the movie "Whip It" for reminding me how much I love roller skating. I'm also super interested in getting into Roller Derby now as well. I figured I should probably go back to the basics first though and just go at my pace at an indoor rink where no one is shoving you into the walls or pushing you down. Oh wait, that already happened tonight. Huh, maybe I am ready! Just kidding.

Anywho, I had fun, can't wait to do it again. I'm seriously considering having my birthday at a skating rink just so I can get all my family and friends out there with me. Or, if not, they can all just watch me skate around! By the way, these are the skates I'm getting from www.lowpriceskates.com.



Hopefully they get here soon. Exciting, I know.
