my sister joked that my public needs me, when i mentioned that i hadn’t posted a new blog in weeks.
this weekend i finally attended a rollerderby bout. the championship game, hell cats vs. cherry bombs. i’m glad i finally went- at first the seats we chose were subpar, but eventually we moved up higher, gaining a real view of the action. that action then led to a major injury of the cringing kind- one of the players suffered an injury to her leg which i will not describe for it hurts me too much. once when i was younger i was rollerblading in the neighbors’ drive… trying to show off and spun around- thus knocking my knee cap around the corner where it has no place, and had to push it back in order to waddle home. yuck.
add knee injuries to the list of things i don’t want to have to deal with again.
also this weekend i attended a jewerly art opening at Art on 5th. the selection was nice from the window, since i was too busy drinking the free wine, chatting & eating delicious foods from Borboleta Gourmet, i believe it to be the first 100% gluten free restaurant in austin. Plans are set to eat there next week, after pay check and before i pay all my bills :) … i enjoyed some fudge, vegan meatballs, apples with caramel sauce, delicious hummus with a nutty cracker and some baklava that i kept refering to as the “pecan pie” (sorry i can’t recall all the fancy details). i’m far from fancy- but i can appreciate some tasty treats.
down 5 lbs and going strong. rekindled love for gym- got over biking to/from or bussin- it really could be worse. cool weather is here, and i’m realizing all the clothing i will have to reacquire before it gets too cold: a new coat, long sleeves, gloves & warm hats etc.
