Yesterday I went roller blading. I love roller blading, but the thing is I haven't been a good roller bladder since I was like 12.
That doesn't seem to stop me from roller blading on hills though. The problem is, I don't really know how to break when I am roller blading. I usually stop myself by either running into something or going really slow.
There was no way I could have controlled the speed I was going when I was at the beach today. I was on a giant slope, and didn't want to fall into incoming traffic. In order to stop myself, I purposely ran into an electrical box at a really fast speed.
It broke my fall, but in the process, I banged my knees, hurt my arms and shoulders, and injured my back. It really was painful. I have never hit anything so hard that I had the wind knocked out of me. It is something I do not ever wish to experience again.
Now my whole body hurts, and I can barely move. I feel like I've been in a car crash. That's how bad it is.
SIGH. Why am I so klutzy?
