“Pfffffft…” I thought last night, standing by the side of the rink, stretching and watching the end of a freestyle session. “I bet I can totally still do jumps. Nevermind that I haven’t done one in ten years! I used to be able to jump, right? Shouldn’t be a problem!”
Today I need a new hip, tailbone, and several vertebrae. And a power scooter. And a LifeAlert pendant. Or we could just go straight for the barbiturates.
Halp.

Haha! Sounds like something I would do. My shins hurt like crazy the last time I went skating.
Whoops! Well, you’ve got the confidence part down at least, right? I hope you feel better! Maybe next time work your way up to it instead of “jumping” right into it.
