Not much to report really.
Did some boring stuff round the flat this morning.. dishes, laundry, tidying.
I always feel like I’m in a constant state of tidying. Which is ridiculous since there’s just the 2 of us living here.
Went to roller derby this afternoon.
I didn’t skate though. I want to make sure my knee is healed before I put my skates back on.
We had a team meeting. Decided on details for our scrimmage on the 11th.
What we’re wearing, our skate out song, discussed some strategy and decided on positions.
I’ve been put down as a blocker.
It’s our first proper scrimmage so our bench manager wants us all to Jam, give everything a go.
So looks like I’ll be a jammer at least once. Scary stuff.
My roller derby secret santa is a girl I’ve never met. Should be fun.
I was supposed to go see my mom tomorrow, but she’s come down with a cold and doesn’t want to make me sick before I go to Canada. I’m never going to get round to seeing her at this rate!
I completely forgot about the NJM questions yesterday. Which may be a good thing since I have nothing to write about today. I’ll pick and choose some I think.
1. If you had to be trapped in a TV show for a month, which show would you choose?
It would have to be the OC.
"oh my god it’s so hard being rich and beautiful"
2. List 5 people you know. Then describe each of them in 5 words.
Ben: The love of my life
Niks: Best friend and vodka queen
Rachael: The coolest person I know
Fizz: She’s too fucking far away
Charl: My brother lives next door
1. Describe the strangest conversation you have ever overheard in public.
Oh so many! Things I’ve overheard in passing
"..and then I got a brain tumour"
"then she lifted up her dress and.."
2. List 10 things that prove things are beautiful in your world.
How soft and fluffy Elroy is
How in love I am
It was sunny today
I can have a cup of tea when ever I want one
I have a job I quite enjoy
I have hopes and dreams I’m sure will come true
My parents are still married and my family is pretty happy and drama free most if the time
It’s payday tomorrow
I leave for Canada with my vodka queen on Wednesday
I’m healthy
3. The first thing I thought of when I opened my eyes this morning was _______________.
Do I have a missed call on my phone?
This is my thought when ever I wake up when I’m on standby for work. If work tried to call me in and I slept through the wake up call I would be in a LOT of trouble. I’m always worried about it.

A fellow roller derbist – YAY! Have a bloody good time on your first proper jam! Watch the feet of the blockers go over the line after the first whistle so you’re ready when the jam whistle goes and remember the jammer’s mantra: KEEP LOW. LOOK FOR THE GAPS. … I bloody love jamming!

I recently listened to a podcast from howstuffworks.com on roller derby and was absolutely fascinated by it. It’s not very big here, but is slowly gaining popularity. I love that I know what you mean when you’re talking about it though. How long have you been doing it?
