Back From The Dead

Hi everyone. Yes, I survived skating and it was a pretty awesome foray into the world of socialising for me really. I got to the skating rink just before 10am so that we could get on the ice as soon as the place opened. It was apparent from the start that my co-skaters were a million times better than me, although in my defence they both used to go on a regular basis. I eventually ended my love affair with the wall and managed to do some strange form of skating that involved only having weight on my right foot. As soon as I tried to use my left foot as well, I almost fell over. Not that I needed any help in falling over as I did rather a lot, consistently landing on my left hip joint meaning that it is now painful to sit down. Add on the fact that hired skates constantly rub against my feet causing several huge blisters and the fact that my legs are aching so much it will be difficult to sleep later and I came out of the rink quite war-torn. I did have a laugh though. :)

It would also seem that my two friends regarded this skating as a "pulling session" and spent most of the time chasing girls. They didn't seem to realise that I had no interest in pursuing meaningless relationships with girls who were rather pretty but looked like they'd never said a word with more than three syllables in. Maybe I'm not abiding by the sacred rules of dating, but I look for a lot more in a girl than a pretty face and a nice set of tits. Maybe that explains why I haven't got a girl yet; I'm too fussy. *sighs*

Perhaps the most annoying thing about being utter shit at skating is the point where you see a kid several years younger than you skating around like a fecking pro. Although, there was this kid who can't have been older than three who was absolutely immense at skating. I was like: ZOMG!

After skating, we had to go to Ikea to get something for my mate's mum. There, when purchasing doughnuts, we found the most irritable and unhelpful member of staff I have ever spoken to. In summary, fuck her. Then, whilst at the bus stop, I was eavesdropping on these people talking (in a non-perverted way) and they started making each other lose the game. I didn't know that anyone outside of internet forums knew about it. :P

Anyway, that's it for now. More titbits from me soon.

Tom.
