Salad bar overload

It’s possible I’ve gone a tad overboard on the aromatherapy products. Here’s a current inventory:

* Kiwi passionfruit shampoo
* Green tea conditioner
* Mango peach body wash
* Apricot face mask
* Honey walnut lotion
* Lemongrass hair gel

I smell like a fruit salad. Does anyone notice they are suddenly hungry when they’re around me?

War Stories

I went skating again last night and I fell…hard. The rink was very crowded and as I was weaving around some other skaters, a kid cut in front of me. I lost my concentration, caught my toe pick in the ice, and basically did a belly flop (well, I smacked my knee hard on the way down too).

I skidded several feet in a spectacular spread eagle before finally coming to a stop. While I was staggering to my feet, the kid who had cut me off turned around and asked if I was all right. I nodded, still breathless, and he smiled sweetly and assured me, “It’s okay, I fall sometimes too.” Yeah. Thanks.

I really was okay, but today my knee is swollen and I’m sporting a fairly impressive bruise. I’m also sore all over, I probably did a really weird, whole-body muscle tense before I fell. Lovely. I wish they had cameras at the rink, now that I’m done weeping, the slow motion replay would actually be cool.
