This morning we had to bag skate for an hour. I was close to puking out on the ice for the first time ever. We had to skate because some of the high school kids have gotten in trouble for being late to school. It might've been the hardest skate I've ever had. We had to skate holding tires over our heads for most of the time. Coach stressed the importance of learning to be on time for everything, and said that this skate was something we had to do together to learn a lesson. Afterwards I went to the gym again. We have the day off tomorrow because the kids who played this weekend deserve a good rest. I might try to go into the rink and skate for a while even though Coach said he doesn't want to see anyone there tomorrow.
Tonight we have our rookie dinner at Red Lobster, where the rookies dress up and buy dinner for all the vets. The vets like to go all out and eat a little extravagantly, to say the least. I have to dress up in a bumblebee leotard...Imagine me, a 220 pound, 6'4" kid, in a bumblebee leotard at Red Lobster. Would you be able to eat? It might be a little too disturbing. Anyway, it should be a fun night with everyone together, and the best dressed rookie doesn't have to pay, so I'm hoping my bumblebee leotard does the trick. I'm not looking forward to the bill after the dinner, though...
You should post a picture. Everyone deserves to see you in a bumblebee leotard!
