Today is "CFL Friday".
Every Friday I grab lunch at Chicken For Lunch in Scotia Place with some of my lady friends. This is my favourite day of the week and it is always a huge struggle to go back to work afterwards. I occasionally give in, or go for a bit of shopping before I come back but I have been trying to ditch the habit since I'm not getting paid while I'm bra shopping with Trina or walking the Halen to her office.
There were 3 of us today that are doing the Dress Month challenge! We took a cute a picture, but you'll have to take my word for it. We all ate some salty hot and dry chicken and now we are all pretty thirsty too!
I am really looking forward to "Critical Lass" on June 13th. It is the perfect blend of bike month and dress month!
Tomorrow is the E-Ville Dead game vs. the Eve's of Destruction. It's going to be an amazing game, I can feel it!

Day # 2: Purple pleated skirt, white button up, grey cardigan.
Working for cheap people is really frustrating.
I am really excited for our game this weekend. First game with Coach Pauly. Dee's first travel team game since she's been back. Last time we played Victoria was seriously the worst game I have ever played. Ever. It's been a long time and I am a lot lot lot better now, so I feel like I have something to prove!

I love a challenge..
So I am supposed to wear a dress/skirt everyday in June with some friends. Yesterday I was not off to a good start. I completely forgot! So my month starts today and will extend into July 1st. I will try to document my outfits this month and I will probably have to buy a few more items in the next couple of weeks. I won't have photos like some other gals though! You'll have to make due with descriptions.
Today I am wearing a black and white pencil skirt with a white shirt with a bow on it. I totally forgot to put on my white bow headband but that might have been cuteness overload.
Also I am wearing my only dress appropriate shoes and they suck. Next Friday is cheap clothes shopping day! Expect to see me in sneakers and dresses for the next week.

shuffle shuffle shuffle
So I've been pretty bored of music lately. I've also pretty much just been listening to the same 2-3 albums for a few months now.
I reset my iPod and I let it "randomly select songs frpm my itunes". I'm listening to it on shuffle and not letting myself flick through songs (because I'll just keep flipping to the next GaGa song). I haven't discovered any new music by doing this but I have rediscovered some old favourite songs, making my walks to and from work just a little more interesting!
That being said I am taking reccommendations for new music. No electro-rock please, I'm sick of that shit.
Bootcamp was super successful, I am so glad I went. It was a grueling weekend but absolutely worth it. I learned so much, and lot's of neat little skating skills that are really going to up my game play.
Estro Jen is such a great teacher. She really understood how to teach things in steps and the mechanics behind the moves. My stops are much more effective now, and I'll be perfecting my power slides, hockey stops and one foot transitions over the next couple of weeks so I can pull them out at the Eves game.
Speaking of which:
In case you can't tell, I'm the poster girl on this one. Very fun!! Very hard not to giggle though while Buffy is telling me to look meaner. Muah hahah.
Back to bootcamp:
I played in the Co-Ed game on Friday. Totally fun, love beating up boys. They don't have as much give when you hit them though, my back hurts from what felt like skating into brick walls!
Saturday I was selected for the All-Star game, SOOO much fun!! I have to admit a lot of the fun was with winning (by about 30 points if memory serves me) and being picked as my teams MVP :D. (Cheeky was picked as best jammer for her team, making two of the six girls being recognized from E-Ville, not too mention 3 other girls from our league playing the game). Great night for E-Ville!!
Admittedly, I was so sore on Sunday that I left right after lunch. The thought of squatting for 15 minutes in Tyler's class was UNBEARABLE. I hope we bring him in on our own sometime though because I'm sure he has some very valuable skills to offer us. I know one of the things I need to work on is getting low and I hear that's his specialty, haha.

Skatetown! Pizza Faces! Long Weekend!
I just realized exactly how much skating I will be doing this week.
I had travel team practice last night, league practice tonight...and then all day tomorrow, co-ed game tomorrow night, all day Saturday, game Saturday night and all day Sunday.
Yikes! This is going to be awesome!
But I am glad Monday is a holiday because I am going to be pretty fucking stiff by the end of this!
There is an acne clinic in the same building as me here as the hospital. It's on the 2nd floor which has the most traffic because it is connected to the rest of the hospitals by pedway. People are always sitting out in the lobby with cream on their face and shower caps on. I feel pretty embarrassed for them! Why don't they have a room or something for these people to wait in? They have to sit in front of Booster Juice while everyone stares at them. AWKWARD.
