I celebrated go skateboarding day yesterday the obvious way. Managed to get some footage of my standup slide practice, which is finally paying off.

Fried chicken biscuit with gravy and an egg.

Sous vide ribeye

Saw Chelsea Wolfe and a few other cool bands last night for the opening of the Nordic Museum, of all places.

This past weekend was the Maryhill Spring Free-4-All, during which I rode some skateboards down a fast and sketchy hill. There were shenanigans. https://imgur.com/a/Mqb6MDD

Happy birthday Doug!

Down a hill.

That one should keep one's butt up and send it.

I too got out of the office, and went back to school.

Sous vide pork chops.

Went to my first sugar shack. Ate so much. They start out by giving you a doggie bag to fill as you go. I'm not going to even try and describe everything, as I'm not really sure, and most of the descriptions were in French. Lots and lots of foie gras and maple syrup. I nearly died.

Lots of Samael. This is great.

Yesterday was a day at the races.

Happy birthday Steve!

Thanks all. Did get my first skate in since the crash today, felt ok. All slides worked out as expected. Had a couple of good meals, which each were the size of a couple good meals, with a couple of good friends.

Shin pads probably would have let me walk away relatively unscathed, and would be relatively unencumbering to wear. That said, it isn't really a spot that is overly prone to taking hits, so maybe just when I'm planning sketchier stuff. Ugh you win. Your prize is pretty much the worst. Heal quickly. Curses, something seems to be afoot!

Cuts here too.

Brunch

Went skating, petted dogs. Also less exciting things like work.

Should. Had Filipino food for lunch, which was so tasty that Waffles had to come over to check it out.

Nah. This pair is now dedicated to skating, and I'm getting a sort of perverse pleasure out of slowly destroying them. Stretch cordura ftw, the stitching is blowing out faster than the fabric. I tore one of the rear pockets halfway off during this session. Sadly no.

Lots of skating with friends recently. Here is a clip from slide practice Saturday. And Brent's favorite capture. He missed me crashing into a thorn bush.
