Apparently Age Does Matter (When It Comes to Roller Skating)

2009 July 12

I’ve always been a firm believer that age doesn’t matter.

Social media has reinforced that so many times. I’ve met teens that could converse as well as any adult I know…and adults who acted more immature than any 6 year olds I know.

Which is why, when my 11 year old wanted to go roller skating while we were on vacation last week, I didn’t hesitate to come along although Ken and I did laugh at how much of a klutz I am and how dangerous it could be.

If you had asked before, I would have sworn it was only 3 or 4 years since the last time I went skating. In fact, it had been over 15 years since I’d roller skated, and unlike bicycling, it’s apparently not really something you remember how to do.

As I discovered when I crashed backwards and managed to somehow twist my arm behind me.

I’ll be okay, but for now, I have a very, very sore arm which makes doing much typing difficult, so for the next couple weeks, I’ll be exploring podcasting.

Cross your fingers for me, I’ve participated in quite a few broadcasts, but haven’t done my own podcast before. This will be interesting. :)
