Skate Smiles
So I have only spent a few hours away from my skateboard since purchasing it yesterday. I even teased C that I might want to sleep with it.
“Is that your mode of transportation?” Gilda asked looking at my skateboard with a big smile on her face as we walk out of the staff meeting together. The smile appeared to be half-impressed and one part amused.
Riding slowly down the small hills and walking down the bigger hills, it took me 25 minutes to get home from work today. Normally I can walk the entire distance in about an hour. Though admittedly I’ve only walked the route when with Becca and/or Sharon, and we’ve never been in a hurry to get anywhere, frequently stopping at a convenience store for a piece of fruit to munch along the way.
“You ride a skateboard?” Kate asked with a huge surprised grin as she led me to her chair at Edo hair salon. She didn’t leave any doubt as to what kind of smile she was wearing by adding, “That is SO cool.”
So straight chicks dig girls who ride skateboards. So far, however, I don’t really feel like I ride a skateboard. At this point, the skateboard is still riding me.
