The rule was, you had to wear tie-dyed clothing, or else everyone could knock you down. As you can see, I made sure I was well protected (hey, I fall down easily enough on my own--I definitely don't need help in that area!)
I was quite proud of my Goodwill find: a t-shirt that was literally tie-dyed to look like Santa's head. A little out of season, but far too fabulous to pass up.
It was a blast, and we discovered an entire roller-skating sub-culture that I had no idea existed. We thought Sunday-night-adult-night at the skating rink would be a ghost town, but it was positively packed. And I mean, those people could skate. We're talking "Boogie Nights" meets "ATL" kind of moves. The dozen of us in our tie-dyed glory definitely stood out like...well, like big, rookie dorks.
Yep, that's me trying to find my own groove. I honestly can't imagine why I haven't been recruited by the Nashville Rollergirls yet...
Good times.
