aslant: (skate)
today we went rollerskating! at roller world in saugus. not having touched a pair of skates in oh, a decade? it was hard! hard on the ankles, hard on the shins; but very fun. we laughed and held hands and went around and around, flailing arms, resting every three laps or so. we were pretty okay at it, after a while. i didn't fall, though k did a few times. sometimes just, you know, rolling along i thought to myself, i'm rollerskating and the thought cracked me up, especially when a swarm of flexible little children would zoom past us on their rollerblades.

now i want my own skates, lightweight and tight and more supportive than the beat-up rink rentals. the thought of how much work it would take to go from total novice to roller-derby-try-out-worthy is laughable, but it's a fun thought. in any case it's more fun than walking to the beach for exercise!

when's the last time you went rollerskating?
