Never trust a big butt and a smile

I'm a pretty sweet girl. I like to make people laugh and really don't dig on conflict. I have a semi-caustic sense of humor, but I'm usually a glass half full person.

I remembered this morning a feeling I used to get on the basketball court. I was a hell of a rebounder. I loved the feeling of grabbing a rebound and fighting another girl for it. If we hit the ground, even better. When the ref called it off, I loved standing there with my ponytail all messed up, breathing hard and feeling the fight. And knowing that I threw a really nice, yet subtle elbow, somewhere in the fracas. But I was always smiling and nice, so I could throw elbows the entire game and never fouled out my entire career.

That's a feeling I want to get again with roller derby.
