Aw, thanks everyone for your support! It means a lot that you are all cheering for me!

So, this is the deal: I am now eligible to scrimmage, and once I’ve been scrimmagable (I swear that’s a word) for 12 practices, then I get placed on a team. I’m wicked jealous of everyone else who’s already on teams, but I totally understand why I can’t be placed yet. They have to be able to examine my skills in action for several practices so that they can see where I best fit in. I’m just happy I have my name. (Still waiting on official approval. Soon, soon. Must be patient.)

I participated in two jams at last practice, and let me tell you, that is one of the most overwhelming situations I’ve ever been in. It was so much fun, but so confusing. I was given two instructions: hold the inside line, and keep up with the pack. I managed to do both well enough, I think, but it’s more than enough to focus on at one time until I get the hang of it.

I hope to expect a bunch of you at the Derbytaunt ball next Friday! It’s the debut of all the rookie skaters, and in addition to raising money to help us produce the summer season, it’s going to be so much fun! I’ll be there pretty much the whole night, and I am running the raffle for the latter half of the event. The best part is that there’s going to be a B-52s tribute band there! How awesome is that?! You should totally come!
