Where is my pride?
I think that I could like snowboarding. I have only been twice with a three year stretch between the times. So not exactly what you would call a pro. I went on Friday with jj. It was our combined anniversary and valentines day celebration. I think that is lots more fun them some dorky dinner somewhere where we try to be sentimental and aren’t.
Anyway, it was fun up until the very end. I can go one direction, where you are leaning on the back of the board. But my legs started to burn and I needed to figure out how to go leaning on my toes. So after I was very tired and it was reaching the end of the day I thought that I would try to learn a new skill. The art of spinning on a snowboard. jj can do it. I saw him do it as I was trying to learn.
It scared me bad.
So I would spin around and be kneeling and stand up and start going backwards down the mountain. The point was to spin around and be going frontward or backward down the mountain. I was starting to get it, but was majorly tired. Basically, I would stand up and get going fast enough to have a hard time stopping and when I would fall I would dig my little mitten hands into the snow and carve two little paths down the face of the this snow covered tundra.
I started to finally get it. But it was then that I got too confident and fell the fall that hurts like hell. I already have a messed up tail bone, and I think that I messed it up some more. I could not even sit down on the poor thing. When I fell, I stayed there on the snow with my feet and back on the ground making sure not to let my butt touch the ground. I layed(?) like that for a while. Then thought get up we still need to make it a few more times down the face. So I stood up after about five minutes and started going again and fell. But this time I was way to scared to fall on my butt and instead decided to fall on my hip. That is when I decided I should be done. I had broken my hip and my butt and I was getting out of there.
I have since developed a nice bruise on one butt cheek and down my bumbly crack. I made jj take a picture of it, and realized what a nasty site that was and quickly deleted it. Who wants to remember the enormity of the bottom, especially with large bruises and black eyes. And more keep showing up.
I’ll publish some pictures later, not of my bottom. I will be fully clothed thank you very much.
