Banked practice/stupid knee - stupid door closing and a stupid lukewarm soda

Today started out supreme. My first real bloggity blog blog got a lot of response. Mostly people telling me what to do to lose weight... Well, I know hooooow - I just don't do what I am supposed to. I need soul searching not diet advice but thank you very much. Your hearts are in the right place I am sure.

Then BANKED TRACK practice. Supposed to be a scrimmage but more refs showed up than my teammates. ADHOC - whatcha gonna do... And lucky me. I feel twice on my injured knee during the open warm up because and had to ice the first half. LORDY do I hate sitting when I should be scrimmaging. In the end the host team was gracious and awesome. The knew felt better and I got to do a few jams and some drills. The last part of practice was open track and I really enjoyed that as I am just getting used to skating at an angle. If you have ever skated at the Rat City track - you have to get used to the dips and the little hill. I was so used to them that eventually skating on a real rink that was all flat used to feel awkward to me. I am hoping eventually the banked feels like that to me. That I don't notice it is banked.

NOW FOR MY MUTHER F*ING RANTS!

I am trying to eat healthy and diet. So on the way home tonight I stopped at the local Safeway. I chose some wonderful ORGANIC veggies and fruits to juice. They don't have the most super selection of ORGANIC but it is on the way home and open late.

SO THEN!!! I am all like happy with my two bags of veggies and fruity bits and I go to leave and the DOOR IS LOCKED!

OH - says the personality void cashier "that door is locked now, you need to use the other".

WHY DOES THIS BUG ME SO FRIGGIN BAD!!! I came in that door lady! I want to go out that door! It's my door. I mean I didn't pee on it and I didn't buy it so it's not REALLY my door but hey - um - my car is just outside it.

IF you have two door and you are a 24 hour store you should really keep both open. I mean really. It's a big place and there were lots of employees still. I mean, what if there was a fire!! AAAAAHHHHH!

RIGHT?!?!? THE HORROR as we are all trapped because somebody is too fraidy cat to leave both doors open.

And there should really be a sign. You know.... HEY LADY - WATCH OUT,  WE LOCK THIS AS SOON AS YOU ARE INSIDE - HA HA ON WHAT YOU THOUGHT WAS A GOOD PARKING SPOT!

Lame... They are lame. Stupid door lockers.

AND to my second rant of the night.....

After practice Irockit and I went to Geogetown so I could get myself a TROUBLE MAKER sandwich WHICH if you know me is my absolutely favorite sandwich. So much so that I even spent $30 on a necklace that says TROUBLE MAKER. So we got to Smarty Pants and they are closed!!! MUTHER F-ER and the worst part is I USED TO WAIT TABLES THERE (on skates) ON SUNDAY!!! I know they close early. What a dill weed I am! Any ma who, then we went to the new diner place next door. I am so distraught after not being able to get the heavenly most amazing TROUBLE MAKER that I can't decide. I don't want your diner food. I WANT MY SANDWICH.

ok ok ok So the Irockit says, "Why don't you get one of them sodas you like and we can share some fries"...

OH OH OH GOD! OH GOD! they have all these like vintage olden time sodas made with REAL sugar and you know I am a sugar ADDICT and they are soooo good and cold and sweet and cripsy and lovely delicious - so I cave - what the hell.

AND YES - I am fully aware that TROUBLE MAKERS and or FRIED and or SUGAR SODAs are not going to help me lose weight. I am not a normal person with practical brain wave thingys or I wouldn't be who I am ... go with me on this ... I am ordering a fries and soda. And an extra plate for Irockit because I can't have ketchup near my fries. I don't do ketchup. Ever.

So the lady brings me a ROOM TEMPERATURE SODA AND A GLASS OF ICE!!!

What the heck is this? Where is my crispy cold glass bottle of delicious sugar liquid!!!

Why would anyone even think that was okay? Why would you bring a sugar soda in a glass bottle and NOT HAVE IT ICEY CHILLED? Does this lady not drink soda? Does she not understand how I like my soda? IS SHE NEW!?! I was just there two days earlier and I saw them all in a cooler with a pretty glass door so you can admire the fun colors and dream of vintage type sugary soda dreams.

THIS LADY CRUSHED MY DREAMS.

The ever practical Irockit told me to just pour it in the cup. And I did. and it was just alright.

Boo on that room temperature soda serving waitress. Boo on grocery stores closing my door after I enter and locking it. Boo on my knee which is a track magnet.

God, today was a good day. I think I actually like ranting about things and when things are off. If everything always went my way how would I know it was awesome?

Meh - the most important lesson in all of this is today at practice Barbie Beatdown said I was a legend.

Yup. Today was a good day. And that Barbie is a genius.

  1. My supermarket locks one of it's 2 main entrance doors late at night. Some of the amateurs still try to use the locked door.

    And yes, today was a good day.
