  • of course i had to fall on my bad arm...

    went to team practice, skating at central park at night
    not a very smart idea
    anyway on the first hill, i was texting my baby earlier so had lost
    sight of the girl, zoomed down neck craning to see where they went hit
    a crack of sorts, tripped and fell, tried my best to brace myself with
    my wristguards but still fell on my left forearm. and of course i
    didn't wear my elbow pads cos i was like oo it hurts to take it off,
    whateva... lazy bones, so now i have a scrape and my shoulder hurts
    more.. at least it was an opposite directed force... anyway... central
    park skating at night is scary. i don't know the terrain and some of
    the downhil goes on for awhile. thatnk god there weren't a lot of
    people cos felt like i was going out of control. fast but with no real
    braking abilitites than to fall.... oh yeah skating to donna's parked
    car going down madison was just as scary with all the #$*@#&$^
    cabs...
    anyway... i live to see another day somewhat intact...

    QUEENS OF PAIN

    September 24, 2006
    -- THE violent femmes of the Gotham Girls Roller Derby league drew a
    crowd on Greene Street the other night as they modeled the latest
    Replay fashion line. The crowd, bored of the serious catwalks at 7th on
    Sixth, included style expert Carson Kressley and porn stars Savanna Samson and Heather Hunter.
    Even the cops got into it by standing on the back of their motorcycles
    in order to glimpse above the throngs and bounce to the music of Def
    Leopard and AC/DC as spun by "Real World London" star DJ Lars. Some ladies inquired about joining such derby teams as Manhattan Mayhem and Queens of Pain

    stingray barb through the heart ...
    what a nice bloke.. and i spent most of last night watching wildboyz.
    things are funny and cool until somebody dies.

    :(

  • this wound is getting harder and harder to clean

    sheesh
    tonight i am thankful for my unfinished bottle of jamesons
    cos hot dangit
    i had to consume some alcohol before being able to thoroughly cleanse my wound
    doing the closed method, so can't let it scab over
    seriously
    i now understand why alcoholic beverages can't be banned
    and why so many movie scenes are like so
    hero takes a swig
    cauterizes his own wound or pulls that torn/dead limb off
    now i'm worried i'm going to have one big huge ugly ass scar on my leg as if i don't have enough
    sweet jesus right
    why didn't i frikkin wear long pants????
    because i was lazy to bring it
    sheesh
    i used to be really good at it too...
    making sure i'm fully covered..
    anyway
    shiteous things happen regardless
