skatin' along

today I went iceskating for Elizabeth's sweet 16.
it was very amusing...
the other girls quite obviously have not skated.
I have my own skates, but they weren't sharpened.
I called the dude and asked if he would sharpen 'em.
he said yes.
I get there... guess what?
sharpening machine is broken and has been for some time.
why didn't he say that when i called this morning? huh?
oh well
I just rented a pair... but I didn't feel special.
