Have I mentioned to anyone lately that I was part of the MN Rollergirls a few years ago?
Here's me, during my brief stint as Dr. D. Bauchery.
The pictures are from fall 2005. The profile is almost completely made up except for: RR has told me that my childhood was like Laura Ingalls (I think he made that comparison as recently as today). I also did use to enjoy White Russians (especially made with Vanilla Vodka).
I joined the summer of 2005 and played through the '05-06 season and began the '06 season, dropping out in the fall of 2006. Why? Because I just didn't care that much. I really enjoyed practicing and skating. I loved the speed drills and endurance drills. I had a great time throwing myself down on my knees (knee pads) and sliding. I just really did not care about the bouts at all. Or strategy. I REALLY didn't care, and that did not jive very well with most of the people on the league who were very passionate about rollerderby.
Fun while it lasted, though.

I am so impressed. You just keep coming up with more interesting stuff (we both seem to have an interest in trash culture). And now I have a new screen saver!
Well, roller derby was interesting, but I'd have to say I REALLY didn't fit in. It just wasn't who I was. The sport was kinda fun, though. "My ill-fitting former alter-ego" would be the wordy way to describe it.
