'Lessons'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm taking the kids to Indiana this weekend so I'm going to give her a call while I'm in town.
In other, less depressing news, I scouted two possible practice venues for roller derby. I got cocky and didn't put on my knee pads, which means I hit a piece of debris on the floor and fell right onto my knees. Hopefully the bruise will be scrapbook worthy.
Oh, Cash, I'm so sorry. That's so rough.
Good news on the roller derby practice, though.
Hopefully the bruise will be scrapbook worthy.
That's the spirit! Somewhere I have a picture of a bruise covering one entire butt cheek. My record tally was 43 bruises at once.
That's something to aspire to. I am shocked at how I'm actually not afraid of falling. Once you take a spill or two, it becomes more natural and the fear subsides. It doesn't hurt as much as you expect it to.
I love the idea of doing it, but I know that I would be the one they would be yelling at saying, "there's no crying in roller derby!"
I can't even stand up on roller skates. Or skateboards. Or ice skates. Someone intended me to be firmly on the ground at all times, for real. I have zero sense of balance.
Once you take a spill or two, it becomes more natural and the fear subsides. It doesn't hurt as much as you expect it to.
You should see me trying to navigate an icy sidewalk. I look like a ninety-year-old. It's tragic.
Woman Fights Off Bear with Zucchini
A bear attacked a dog in Frenchtown, Montana. The dog’s owner fended off the bear using a zucchini:
When the woman, whom police did not name, tried to separate the animals, the bear bit her in the leg.
Maricelli says the woman reached for the nearest object at hand on the porch’s railing — a large zucchini that she had harvested from her garden.
The woman flung the vegetable at the bear, striking it and forcing it to flee.
Oh, in trying to decide what to read next, I figured out that I had already read one book on the TBR shelves. WHOOT! One more to move to the read shelves.
My mom picked mac up from school today. me likey.
I have zero sense of balance.
Me too. If I'm walking down a sidewalk, I can't look up to the sky without losing my balance.
The woman flung the vegetable at the bear, striking it and forcing it to flee.
Of course it fled. Everyone knows that the next play in that fight is offering a whole bag of zucchini to take home with you.
