To the lords of Winter Olympics, I want to be an Olympian... Maybe someday.... ha. what a long shot.. I need to train for something.. . I've just recently gotten back into Ice skating thanks to my friend who grabbed me a free pair of used hockey skates from a pro team .. They are a players old skates that suit me just fine.. I used to play roller hockey back in the day in the neighborhood. Learned how to play from a friend named Joakim- He was a kid from Sweden who i got to meet when he moved to the states. We became friends and he needed someone to play hockey with. He taught me a lot but I wanted to be in a league.. guess not.. that was then..
These days are a Lil better. I have been on the ice about 10 times in the past month and a half. It was a little sketch at first when i got on ice; sliding and not really knowing my edges.. I went to a couple sessions on the weekday when there aren't so many people on the ice. Been getting lessons from this old man who is a coach. He's been putting me through some drills. I seem to be picking up on it, just gotta let my weak ass legs and knees build more strength to keep on doing these drills..
I'll Keep ya posted on the progress. but for now the Winter Olympics is on and I am a Lil addicted. Gonna keep on skating. Hey, maybe u will see me there someday.. U know the Koreans are really good skaters.. them Yellow folks running away from crazy Americans.. lol. alright enough of that.
On to the next couple weeks. gotta get things done.. Shop has been slow, gotta give it up to business owners. It's a hard road out there.. -- Peace in the middle east my friends-
Pete
