DAY SKATE AT THE LAKE

A DAY IN DECEMBER

Log: Still no snow

"Let's Go Skate"



Hand made beanie cap, no helmet - skating alone.

I do not advocate lack of protection to your head, especially while skating by yourself. Skate at your own risk.

"Wook at the wake!" - translation - "Look at the lake"

My happy little skating playground - if you would like to see what is at the end of this parking lot, click on this link to the YouTube video - posted by moi


Roller Skate Circle


Still on the borrowed skates!


Wish you all were here to skate with me too!


Whatever you do, please don't feed the geese...oh wait, it's December, they all flew SOUTH FOR THE WINTER!



So I will just sit back and chill
...



...and enjoy the beauty around me...


.. chillaxin' the day away...



...And what a day it is...

Money Well Spent

I am not so sure if money has been as big of an issue for others as it has for me this past year, so placing this order from Wicked Skatewear has been a long time coming! My derby dream list is much longer than my placed order, and much more exciting, but alas, I will have some new digs!

My skate boots (She Devils) should be back sometime in the first week of January (derby skating starts back up January 3). I will probably (unless a work of God happens) be skating on my borrowed skates the first week.


So, what was on my derby order?


  • Astro Nuts - Green
  • Bushings - PowerDyne Magic Cushions - Orange - 82A medium
  • Radar Tuner Wheels - Orange - 95A - Firm
  • Gaskets - Knee - Triple 8
  • Neon Green Criss Cross Laces

Would love to have had the money for new knee pads too, but that will have to be later in the season (before bouting starts). Gaskets really only last me around six months, but I highly recommend them to every skater.


I will post pictures of my skates with their new soles and reinforced toe box (thanks Riedell!) with their updated bushing, wheels and nuts when I get them!


Until then -

Skate Boot Repair



Right Skate Boot, Curved Sole


Foot From Skating In Curved Soled Skate Boot

Solution: Returned skates to the manufacture. They are going to resole my skates and reinforce the toe boxes so this problem will be less likely in the future. The curving of the sole does happen, but usually is seen in boots with a leather sole and a skater who uses their toe stops a lot. The interesting fact is that my boots have rubber soles. I am glad to have this taken care of and am happy with the outcome.

She had wheels on her feet




I seen a girl on a one-way corridor
Stealin' down a wrong-way street
For all the world like an urban toreador
She had wheels on her feet - on her feet
Well the cars do the usual dances
Same old cruise and the curbside crawl
But the rollergirl - she's takin' chances
Just love to see her take them on

No fears, alone at night - she's sailing through the crowd
In her ears the phones are tight and the music's playin' loud

Hallelujah - here she comes - Queen Roller Ball
Enchante - what can I say? Carry on
You know she used to have to wait around
She used to be the lonely one
But now that she been skatin' around town
She's the only one

No fears, alone at night - she's sailing through the crowd
In her ears the phones are tight and the music's playin' loud

She gets rock n roll, from the rock n roll station
In a rock n roll dream
She's making movies on location
She don't know what it means
And the music make her wanna be the story
And the story was whatever was the song - what it was
Rollergirl - don't worry
DJ play the movies - all night long

She tortures taxi drivers just for fun
She like to read their lips
Says: "Toro, toro, taxi - see 'ya tomorrow my son - "
She just let a big truck graze her hip
She got her own world in the city - yeah!
Ain't that true - Lord I know -
She got her own world in the city
The city's bein' so... rude to her

Slippin' and a-slidin'
Yeah, life's a roller ball
Slippin' and a-slidin'
Skateaway - that's all
Skateaway
Shala shalay, hey hey, skateaway
She's singin' shala shalay, hey hey
Skateaway

WHO knew that goldfish were such needy little beasties!


WHO KNEW

  • That goldfish bowls are barbaric slow death torture containers?
  • That goldies can live upwards of 15 years! Record age is over 40 + !
  • That TEN GALLON tanks are the MINIMUM size for one gold fish? (30 Gallons MINIMUM for TWO, and TEN gallons each additional fish
  • That you can feed goldies fruits and vegetables? Citrus fruits are a real treat
  • That "what goes in must come out" is true of goldfish (hence they need lots of water and filtration due to their dirty little bottoms)
  • That goldfish grow large! Pet stores sell BABIES, imagine a grapefruit with fins in your future)
  • That goldfish have wonderful personalities!
