Hockey Mama

There was an open skating session at the local ice skating rink this afternoon at 3:00. I was thinking of going, then thinking of bagging it and just taking a nap, but then I went.

It was terrific. There were some ex-hockey playing guys there skating really fast, leaning way into it. Great to watch. And I was right in there with them, skating really like hell on wheels. I played ice hockey in high school on a girl's team -- I wasn't very good -- but today skating I was thinking that I still skate fast and dangerously like a guy.

I had so much fun this afternoon, but I'm so tired out and sore now. I had dinner out with a friend and we were both too tired to take in a movie as we'd planned.
