Trying not to get pissy, but there are some skater girls that just drive me up walls. Ok just one. She's not even on the team. That's the problem. She's jelly and so she's taking it out on me.

hello darkness, my old friend

My secret pleasure is the moment after I return home from practice and before I greet my shower. The house is dark, the dogs are (usually) asleep.

I slip out to our porch and strip down.

First I peel off my wrist guards, my elbow pads, my knee pads, and dig my helmet out of my bag.

I slip out of my elbow socks, pull down my knee gaskets and peel off my socks.

Then comes the best part of all-- I take off my shorts and shirt, and stand there, in the dark, basking in (near) nakedness. I leave on certain undergarments on the off-chance my neighbors have their binoculars out.

I think the mosquitos have died off in the drought, so I allow myself an extra few moments, standing there... appreciating the stillness, the startling beauty and terror of woods at night.

Then I go inside, shut the door softly and pad upstairs to continue my nighttime routine.

Perhaps the reason my mother doesn't remember my childhood is that she thinks I'm still in it.
