i heart roller derby like no ones business
no lie, roller derby rules. i don't know how many of you i told, but i was actually seriously considering joining the oc rollergirls and actually went to one of their practices and it. was. AMAZING. so much effing fun.
but the time involved and the money involved makes it a no-go, cuz i already spend ungodly amounts of time on artsy fartsy adventures.
but that don't mean i can't get rad skates! i just ordered a pair of skates for rollin' around long beach and i can't wait for em to get here! sin city skates is outta arizona, so maybe possibly they'll be here by the weekend? i hope i hope?
i got these ones. ivanna s. pankin says they can put the aerobic outdoor wheels on those skates instead of the indoor wheels they come with for no extra charge so that's what i did hooray!
also, a bunch of us went to the l.a. derby dolls match last weekend and holy effing crap so much fun to watch! AND we saw drew barrymore AND ellen page at the match! a bunch of times! and after the match as we were leaving the parking lot we saw drew barrymore again and our buddy jay kept yelling 'MS. BARRYMORE I LOVE YOU!!!' out the car window. it was amazing good times.
on tap for today - buying tickets for the next derby dolls match!
i can't wait to go skate!
