Useless Personal Trivia

[rusty_armour]

Twenty-five years ago today, I broke my leg skating. As the event was kind of traumatic, the date has remained lodged in my brain. Once my leg healed, I did go skating again, but only once because I was so afraid of falling that I didn't derive much pleasure from it. I tripped this morning on the way to work, but I didn't fall or so much as bruise my leg. I hope this positive trend continues.

Well, it's definitely been cold enough here for ice to freeze all over the place. It's nice that the Netherlands is so into skating and went nuts for it when ice did form outside of skating rinks.

I've only be cross-country skiing twice, but I really enjoyed it. I actually wouldn't mind trying it again. However, I think I'd better avoid downhill skiing as I've already sustained a skiier's fracture through skating. ;-)
