We WILL Eat These!

Next post explains why.
May need an Intervention if we leave laces unchewed.
Will do our best. Read on.

The Big OH-NO! Mom, NO-NO!

2009-11 Short Track Speed Skating World Cup #3- Montreal - YouTube,"

We been seein' the signs, mom getting into the "racing squat" that her

coach described as "Just imagine you are sitting on the toilet reading

the paper" because your weight is on your heels, quads parallel to the

ice, hands forward, unless they are behind your back in the early stages

of a long training session or race.

No, she hasn't pulled the skates out, the helmet, the skin suit (like it

gonna FIT?! WAH, HA!) But when she thinks we ain't looking we

see her skating in her mind, getting in the ZONE, becoming "one"

with the ice inside...

"They have walkers you can take on the ice, like, for beginners,"

she says. We know she wouldn't use one. She'll just skate low so

less distance to fall down knowing only one bad fall is all it would take...

If the skates come out, we are afraid we will have to eat them.

(Just not the blades - OUCH! those we'll pee on so they rust!)

Her old team starts training in January...we won't let it happen.

But, we wish we could. (Just to see her in that racing suit, but

we would DIE LAUGHING, I SWEAR THE SIGHT O'THAT

WOULD KEEL US, OH-OH, GEEZ, I CAN'T BREATHE...

THAT WOULD BE TOO MUCH!)  NOT MUY BONITA!!!!

She says, "You don't know how it feels to become ONE with

the ice, to get into a rhythm where there is no more self, only

the sound of blades and the whoosh of flying, gaining speed

and momentum to turn those corners with grace, beauty, and

CRASH & SLIDE UNCONTROLLABLY UNTIL YOU SMASH
INTO THE BOARDS! (arena walls.)

Happens every fall, this thing. Every time she feels a nip in the air.

Not enough healthy bones left in mom's spine, though, especially her neck...

If we see them skates it will be our moral responsibility to eat them

And Eat Them We Will! Mom, stick with yoga and t'ai chi, where you

got stuff to grab when you fall...or the skates are HISTORY!

Soon the leaves will be falling. But we won't let her fall with them.


GUESS WE ALL MISS BEING WELL...I DID TODAY. MY SPINE
IS FUSING AND ALL I WANNA DO IS HAVE SOME FUN HUMPING
MY NEW LOVE, MILLIE BEA, KNOWING I NOT THE STUD I ONCE
