rainspiritIt's been like getting my wings back.
I'm remembering the times that I used to write prose about rollerblading - how much I genuinely enjoyed traversing cities with them, to the point that I never touched my bike. There's freedom of movement in rollerblading, the ability to move your body around and let it breathe. And for me, it's safer - my sense of balance is enough that I fall only rarely, and I always have my hands outstretched to catch me. Well, and my backside, of course.
Yesterday was a bit of a fright, but I found my study notes, more or less. Just have to compare notes on the finer usages of... god, I don't know, fucking punctuation? CP Style? Plagiarism? Who knows. But I know that I can fucking write, so if I look these articles over and write some notes on them (or something) then I can get through this.
On a completely unrelated note, yogurt-covered blueberries are amazing and I need to stop eating them. Right now. Put them down, Tito.
Have to pack away groceries now. The best thing that happened today was that I saw that the grocery was about to close, and I just put on my rollerblades and skated over. Had a big bag, loaded it in a shopping cart, wheeled around the place - after checking to make sure it was okay to do so. The local grocer is widely spaced enough that there's little awkwardness in doing it, and it's a lot, lot more fun. So long as I don't crash into anything. (Which I didn't.)
Thinking now. Have to brew some tea and get to work.
