I've done too much therapy. I ran out of angst. I'm obsessed with skating and I don't want to do anything else.
No new life experiences.
No dating.
No adventures.
Nothing to write about.
Nothing to talk about.
I'm boring.
Nobody wants to hear about how important it is to practice edgework or how hard it is to do backwards outside edges on one foot and how yet impossible backwards crossovers still seem to be.
Nobody will get it if I talk about how I can only do these things if I stick my ass out twenty-three feet behind me.
It's not engaging material writing about the warmups that I have to do every time if I wanna have any fun on the ice because my joints just don't cut loose and party like they used to.
Inside edges, outside edges, crossovers, eights, vines, forwards, backwards, c-cuts...
I don't have any skater friends.
I WANT SKATER FRIENDS!!
I'm 42 and I want skater friends. I'm the only 42-year-old on the planet that wants skater friends. I don't just feel boring, I feel weird.
Weird.
Huh.
Ha!
Like feeling weird is a new thing.
Ah, well...
If anyone needs me, I'll be at the rink.

Thanks! I'm not bored, though. Just boring. 😉
You don't need skater friends! You have bird-friends:)
But the birds don't skate with meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee (and they aren't allowed in the rink because of the poop).😭
If you keep skating they will come!
Ooooooooo what if I build my own ice rink, then they'll really come!
Even better, you will be the Ice Queen!
dont sue me Disney
Weird is good… I like being weird hahaha 🤣
Weird is good, but sometimes a little lonely. 😆
Yes… I agree. It can get lonely.
😆
I'm boring. I don't even skate or photograph crows or go to talk to a therapist.
Yeah but you drink beer and talk about it with professional amateurishity.
I had some skater friends, they managed to put me on the ice for the very first time and I liked it a lot...
Currently no friends around and not to mention the ice. 😂
Pilot seems like skilled one, try him out!
Alas, there are no dogs allowed on the ice in any rinks and we don't get cold enough for skating ponds. If it wasn't for the crows, we might move to Alaska...
Move to Europe, you'll get it all at one place. :D
Can I bring all my crows?
Yes! And don't forget Pilot!
I was wondering where the butt stinks part came in....
Haaaaaaaaa!!!! I feel like it's something kids said to each other when I was younger, or at least the kids in my family: You're ugly and your butt stinks. So I changed it to I'm boring and my butt stinks. But I am of the opinion that everyone's butt stinks, regardless of the appearance or entertainment value of the rest of their person. So I guess it's a moot statement.
Just passing through to make sure you're not taking all of my wealthy autovotes for granted.
Oh, I take them ALL for granted. Mine mine mine mine mine mine gimme gimme.
I mean, thanks for passing through! Here, have some water. You look fuzzy.
passing wind again
Thanks @brumest and @qurator team!
You are definitely not boring. A little birdie assured me of this. Several, actually. So I remember having a crush on all the cool skaters when I was in middle school. Mind you this is Florida, so they were skateboarders, but anyway, I'm going with the same concept. Sometime around age 25 I realized they were not cool anymore, and now I wonder if sometime around age 40 those same people figure out how to be cool again...
I knw someone from the dog park who used to be a skater when he was a kid. He's 50 now and a software engineer. Not sure how cool that is but his dog plays a mean game of frisbee catch and can raid a picnic with utter disregard for any rules, total skater attitude.
Well if his dog is cool, then he is cool. Case closed. What does that say about us? Pilot is cool, right? Of course he is. He looks like he has that sauve gentlemanly vibe, like a charming fine-dining maitre d' that will politely not crack a smile when you spill red wine down your white dress. Clearly you've got class, since you've adopted him.
My girls are mildly antisocial, really enjoy a good squirrel chase, and snore. Hmm...
Pilot is supercool. He's the lovey-fluttery sweetheart with his friends and then the growling badass that likes to chase big dogs and play referee when the big dogs chase each other.
He snores sometimes. Growls in his sleep and wakes himself up.
BTW, I have 4 little balls of fluff in my living room right now, and I felt you should know.
YOU ARE RIGHT I ABSOLUTELY SHOULD KNOW, THANK YOU.
This picture made me suck air in through my nose and bug out my eyes while making a subtle double chin.
This comment made me chuckle in such a way that disrupted the peeping chicks and the snoring dogs, and I may have double-chinned but nobody saw so it didn't happen.
Definitely didn't happen, but so what if it did!
