DERBY!!!

I haven't had a complete day off in about 2 months now since I started working at Target, so I've been more than a little tired and in need of a break. My social life is non-existent lately, and that's got me feeling a little caged lately.

One of my local blogger friends, Kim (aka Devilish Southern Belle) has been trying to get me out to the local Roller Rink to participate in the Dixie Derby Girls team. I have always LOVED skating, but have always found it hard not to feel like an old maid any time I've tried to go back to the rink in my adult life.

Well, tonight I finally have a night off and am going to try my hand at the Dixie Derby Girls practice to check things out. I'm really excited!!! I figure it will be a great release and since my workout regimen has all but ceased due to time constraints, it'll be a great way to get in some much needed exercise too.
One of the things I love about Derby Girls is the creative nicknames that they create for themselves. I've tried thinking of a good name if I were to play, but so far I haven't figured one out. Anyone have any ideas? What would you pick for yourself?

I am so glad you got to come out, and look forward to seeing you up there again soon! Sorry I bailed right after practice...my wrist & elbow gear is still missing! I am sure it just got tossed into the league bin.

You definitely need to come up with something speed/racing related. You are going to be so fast once you get used to it just a bit more! Seriously, I think you're going to have all this stuff down in no time!

Hmmm...
