We knew one of the skaters, & friends kept telling us how much fun it was to go to bouts. We made it to the championship bout of the 2008 season and I was bowled over--I had never been this drawn to any kind of sport before. Feminism with grit and speed and moxy (and fishnets!), what's not to love? Within the first few minutes as a spectator I declared I had to do this, and signed up for the next boot camp that summer.

Reality TV, Hershey's kisses, phoney people, the misuse of the word "literally" and spiders. I don't care that they eat pests, I will literally kill them if they come near me.

Housecat. I like to lay in the sun and be pet behind the ears. But don't think I won't attack on the smallest whim--and I'm stronger than I look.
