clippers

i went skating this afternoon with the melles's. they live down the street from victoria park – where they skate often – but we skated in their backyard, in their on private rink. it was fun. i haven't skated in years, and aside from the fact that my skates are too small, i did pretty well! i used to skate all the time, we had our own backyard rink when we were kids. i dazzled brendan with my ability to do circles around and round and round. he filmed it and everything :p i grabbed an extra hockey stick and played a little with the boys, i wasn't too bad considering it was the first time i'd ever had one in my hand. i'm not sure if i'm a left-handed hockey player or if i just hold the stick wrong, but i made do. i was pretty good at getting it in the net, even if my stick handling could use some work. we stayed for dinner afterwards. it was yummy as usual :)

i'm feeling pretty crumby. i'm gonna drink some neocitran and get into bed. it sucks getting sick while on vacation. i was tempted to get some coldfx, but it'll probably be gone in a few days anyways. it gives me all the more reason to spend my holidays resting.

the only chore i got around to doing today was scrubbing my refrigerator. that's been way over due, and it looks really awesome. i honestly didn't realize that my fridge interior was white :S it's good to have that done.

we've come so far, it feels so real.
all this time, that we've waited for it.
and who we are, and where we're going to.
all this time, preparing for it.
