No Pinching!!

At least it finally stopped snowing! It's been snowing all morning...kind of depressing, with the ST. PATRICK's DAY PARADE tonight. I'm definitely not SKATING in it now, but I'll still be walking! And cold or not, wearing fishnets, because that's just how we roll. I might cheat and wear old figure skating tights underneath...they will be too big, might look like crap, and are made to go over skate boots so they might feel weird on my feet BUT I will be warm.

I was totally pissed at practice yesterday morning. I scrimmaged three times in the past week: a team practice, an interleague team practice, and a full league practice. Suddenly Sunday morning, wearing yellow means you can't participate in the scrimmaging? All I got to do was hold the stop watch and time the jams. LAME. And then, no one brought the interleague shirts. So I was damn grumpy, but I chatted with some people afterward and that cheered me up. However, NO MORE YELLOW! No matter how I feel, I am NOT wearing yellow on Wednesday. We only have THREE practices before the bout - I am already very concerned my endurance has suffered, not having jammed in over a week. Instead of cooling down during the last five minutes yesterday, I skated my heart out, to make up for not scrimmaging.

My arm is almost up to it. Sleeping on Hit Man's bed was not good for it, like sleeping on a rock, but just one night in my soft mushy bed helped. Mostly, it doesn't hurt. Moving it certain ways still does, but I think I can scrimmage on Wednesday with a reasonably small risk of murdering myself. I will probably contort an ace bandage around my shoulder/arm, I don't think it will help but it will make me feel "safer".
