fatgirlskates | Feeling nonverbal lately...

If you can't view images, it shows the unfortunate-looking state of my body at the moment. I duct-taped my elbow pads to my arms because they kept slipping at practice last night, and now the whole area's all irritated. I got road rash on my shoulder and leg from showing off to the neighborhood kids, who asked me to demonstrate to a running start off my toe stops, and I was like, "THAT IS SUCH A GOOD IDEA! I won't even put on my safety gear on first!" That is also how I got half the bruises that are covering my entire body. The other half are from derby. I also have acne in the worst way.

Not pictured: whatever the hell I did to my knee at practice last Tuesday.

I'm grouchy because I feel like crap and nearly all of it could be avoided if I stopped and used my head for two seconds. Or if I washed my face more often in the case of the acne. >_
