I had been doing so well, too...

You know how I was so proud of myself for getting back on to skates and NOT falling?

Oh yeah...I wiped out twice today. Thank God I had the brains to buy knee pads, elbow pads and wrist pads or else I would be in a lot more pain than I am right now. As it stands my arm (which was uncovered because I was wearing a tank top) has a lovely road rash on it. Hurt like a mofo when I showered, but at least I know there's no grit in it.

Today's daily dose of BPAL is Alice's Evidence from the Mad Tea Party collection. I smell like baked goods and spicy tea. Or that potpourri that my mother always makes around Christmas. Either way, I smell good. (Chase, buddy, I'm sorry if I'm making your feel bad. Honestly, most of the blogging about the perfume is to give me a written record of what I liked and what I didn't. Because, you know, writing it down in a .txt or a .docx file would have been easy.) I may have to get a bottle of this some day. At any rate, it beats smelling like an old lady!!

*laugh* Don't give it a second thought. I'm enjoying your descriptions and living (olfactorily) vicariously through you. : )

Glad to know you were wearing pads! Safety first!

Yeah, I just found a big ol' bruise on my thigh that must have finally surfaced in the last couple of hours because it wasn't there when I showered earlier. >_o

I don't have a helmet, though I'm rethinking that. Besides, if I want to start biking again I should probably have one anyway.

Ack! Yeah, your skull and brain stem and considered important according to some leading scientific evidence. Get a helmet! : )

I know. Believe me, I know.

(A few years of psychology and various health/anatomy classes have taught me the importance of the brain. Same goes for various episodes of Pinky and the Brian and Freakazoid! as well.)
