Jello Wrassssslin'

This....night...was...the....best.....ever!!!! Jet City Rollergirls know how to throw a bitchin' part-ay. The club was pretty much packed with 4 metal bands playing and 8 sets of girls wrasssslin' in blue jello. Earlier in the week we had a guy named Nathaniel from Seattle's semi-pro wrestling league come up to Everett and show us some moves so we actually looked like we knew what we were doing. I wrestled fellow rollergirl, "TrixXxie's Trashen' em' ", and we threw down our patented move "the helicopter" which involved my long legs spinning around in the air ready for take off. Unfortunately I heard no one recorded the event...but the pictures should speak for themselves. Sensitive viewers should look no further.

Smith Rock Climbing Trip

Earlier this week Gus and I were invited to join our old climbing partner from St Louis, Mike, and his girlfriend Laurie for a few days of climbing just north of Bend, OR. The weather was so-so, the scenary was spectacular, and the climbing was way above my comfort zone. This area is renowned for its difficult sport routes (5.11+ - 5.14) and even it's easier routes were definitely on the stiff end of the ratings. The initial bolts were pretty high off the ground which makes for high anxiety, and then sometimes the bolts were spaced so far apart a ground fall was possible from the third and fourth bolts. I think I've definitely become spoiled with the over-bolted areas east of Seattle with their soft ratings. But, it was definitely cool to experience a world-renowned area and visit the bustin' at the seams town of Bend.

Help!!!

I need people to teach me how to wrestle! And soon, jello wrestling is less than 3 weeks away! Gus is no help, he takes me down in one move and can't seem to pretend to let me win ('cause he's an "Urban Ninja"....right). So if there's anyone out there who is willing to teach me some tricks, I am all ears. I really want to avoid being pinned in the first 10 seconds.

My derby name is now official, say hello to "Molly Python" #6'1. She's ready to squeeze the life outta ya.
