I swear I had really good intentions when I said in a previous post that I would be posting more regularly! "Life" has been quite hectic but relaxing at the same time as of late.

I've enjoyed having more free time since "retiring" from roller derby. Actually, my retirement becomes "official" at the end of this month, which is nearly here! (Where has this month gone?!) Today, the new Vice-President (aka my replacement) for the league will be announced! My vote was hard to cast as there were two VERY capable women on the ballot that I wanted to vote for. I will be equally happy if either of them take the seat. I cannot wait to find out! My time being involved in roller derby is far from over, though. I intend to continue to volunteer as much as possible with my league (Tri-City Roller Girls) through the Bout Production Committee, working bouts, and kicking off "Team Super-Fan" which really just means I'll continue to boisterously promote derby and TCRG any way I can! Oh ya... keep an eye out for "Team Super-Fan"!!

Something else I "committed" to just yesterday is the Skull-a-day movement. I've been a big fan of the blog and idea for over a year now, and decided I am going to do my best to create, draw, discover (etc.) a skull every day for a year. Hmm... thinking about this more now... perhaps I should see if I can make it through a month first. *Haha* In any event, it should be interesting and fun. Hopefully I'll actually get my s*** together enough to actually POST my creations/discoveries on here. *fingers crossed*

In just under two weeks I'll be volunteering at the Hillside Inside festival. I. CANNOT. WAIT! Hillside Fest (the one that happens over a weekend in July at Guelph Lake) is so amazing and magical. I've considered volunteering over the past couple of years, but with my derby schedule, it's been impossible. I didn't even make it to the weekend festival last summer - the first time in what would've been my 5th annual attendance. It still makes me sad that I missed it. I don't want that to happen again. February 6th, 2010 will be my first Hillside Inside event, the Festival's 3rd annual, and man, am I looking forward to it! They have an incredible lineup, including Hawksley Workman, The Rural Alberta Advantage, Woodhands, Socalled, Ani DiFranco, and more! See... awesome! Find out more info about Hillside here.
