peaceful easy feeling.

it is MONDAY. i have opted to work the next 4 days washing windows (if it can be booked...) so today was my lone day off to get everything done. i folded like 5 loads of laundry (off the floor of course) and scrubbed the bath tub. it was disgusting. i would look at the bottom of the tub every time i was having a shower and note how dirty it was... and just not get around to scrubbing it... so today was the day. and having the floor of our bedroom clear is a nice change. haha. tyler was glad to have clean underwear in his drawer... yikes. i didn't get around to the dishes, but i am hoping PERHAPS tomorrow after work, or tonight... just maybe. we're going to kelowna tomorrow night, i think, to see tyler's friend colby. and wednesday night is derby. and then thursday and friday nights i work. plus i have a friend that is going to europe, and i would really like to hang out with her... she leaves saturday.

it will be yet another busy week.

and i have to fill our funtastic team. it would be nice to get 2 or 3 more girls on the team. right now we have 14 players locked and loaded... but we paid for 18. so we need 4 more. jasmine has some to contribute i think...

there has been drama erupting in the roller derby community. the fresh meat coach is splitting to make her own team. i think i am going to go with her. most of the fresh meat girls are. PLUS then i can actually get involved with the radio station and promotion. i can have some say in things and make things the way it should be. the whole derby scene is a bit skewed with the other team, and they have an announcer from sun fm, and so are exclusive with them. which is a bit of a bummer for me. and i think if i stayed with the raggedy rollers... what would i do at practices? i would go off on one little corner of the rink and skate back and forth by myself... and that wouldn't really benefit me all that much, you know? i wouldn't have anyone to teach and help me, because no one other than the fresh meat coach really does that.

tyler came up with a fantastic name for me after the bout in kelowna... and then i checked it out, and its taken. soooo... no go. it was bettie rage. which i thought was AWESOME! but... back to the drawing board. any ideas? i really wanted 'fujiyama mama' which is the name of wanda jackson's big 1958 hit single (check it out... its awesome). but that one is taken too. arg. some of them are so clever!! the best ones i have heard were probably on the movie 'whip it!'. like babe ruthless, or ravin maven, or rosa sparks, smashlee simpson... etc. erin's is traxel rose. there is a girl on the raggedy rollers called smash gordon. i want something incredibly clever and tough and awesome!!

anyway... that's it for tonight. i'll be back thursday.

    I love having a clear bedroom floor. haha.

    Those roller derby names are cool. Who knew it was so hard to come up with a good one? I'm sure you'll come up with something awesome.
