Bi And Large

OK so we went rollerskating with the girls this afternoon. We found a GREAT family owned rink near us that is so cute and clean and has great prices.

Apparently, I have not been rollerskating in a very long time. And apparently, I am thus much older and fatter than I used to be, because I suddenly am unable to rollerskate. I used to be good at it. I could speed skate, and go backwards, and shoot the duck.

Now? I stepped off the carpet, wobbled crazily with my back spasming like I was being electrocuted and my arms flapping wildly, and promptly fell down. Twisting my ankle. And coudn't figure out how to get back up. Every time I tried, my legs shot out from under me. God, it was embarrassing!

So yeahhhh, that was a great sight I am sure. And my foot and back are killing me and I'm sure that will be fantastic tmorrow when I need them all day. BUT we had fun, and the girls did great for their first time, and even Pete who said he can't skate at all made it all the way around the entire rink once without falling down. A huge success. We just maybe should go back for lessons on Saturday before we attempt this again....
