A Legit weekend...

It was an amazing weekend - I got to see lot's of my American (and Canadian - Tush and Wile) friends and play some amazing banked track rollerderby. I love roller derby! In a crazy amount, it is the most amazing sport ever. Team Legit has always been a great team to skate with, and I am superhappy and proud that I am a part of it. And I was extreamly happy that I got to skate in Everett, because that is where I started rollerderby... 4,5 years ago... I started to skate in Everett... at the SkateDeck...

I got some time to hang out at Fast Girls, and I even coaxed myself into getting a pair of lift and separate shorts... yepp... I am going all girly on ya!

Morning skate with Krissy Krash

Waking up with the window open and the sun shining in, Krissy shook the shakes up for us and we put our skates on. Tip-toed down the stairs and hit the streets, grabbed some coffee and then just skates along the beach... yes... those are the days I wish I lived in California... Tonight Team Legit has practice at the banked track, but before that me and Krissy will come up with a thousand things to do... Maybe go to Forever 21 and dress up and take pictures, maybe go to Moxi and stare at skates, maybe get some food, some juice, some fruit...

I love you guys... yeah

Yesterday I hung out with my former team-mates, and it makes me sad that I am not going to skate with them during 2011, it really breaks my heart. OMG, Bonnie, Fisti and Bunny are about the most awesome ppl in the world. I had some beers with OMG while she was mounting plates at the new Five Stride location and it is freaking ASSKICKING and awesome.

I love to play derby, it is one of the best things I ever took upon myself to do, and I did it well, really well, and I still do. And tonight I'm going to fly out to LA to reunite with Team Legit to once again play the LA Derby Dolls on the banked track... just hoping no-one changed their elbowpads to steel...
