Today was the first day of being Mr Mom for a week as Liz is in SF. So I’m coming home from work early to get the kids when they get out of school. The stars aligned and both kinds went to friends houses so I went skating for about 40 minutes. I went to ballparks where I was to meet Carleigh after awhile. My warming up was bad and lasted until about the time Carleigh showed up. She was a wreck again. Man, I hope things get better for her soon. I ended up having a decent time. Last time I was in the Springs with Null kids I did a noseslide at Harrison and for whatever reason hucked a bigspin out. It wasn’t close and didn’t resemble a bigspin, but it triggered a thought to try it again. Somehow I finally remembered. I actually got super close. Even kind of landed one where I came to a hault at 90 degrees. I know I skate like I’m 12, but surprisingly I’ve never really tried that trick before. I also got some front 50s, accidental front 5-0s and some mediocre flip tricks. I hope I land that trick sometime. Seems possible. Carleigh got some noseslides, but mostly looked out of it and bummed. Doh.
