On the 9th of November I turned 37, my darling wife got me a skateboard for a present and that day I skated with glee and enthusiasm, twas a thoroughly joyous time indeed.

However, one of my left leg muscle’s was having a grumpy bum day and in defiance of me getting my skate on again like days of yore and enjoying life’s little pleasures it jammed up and decided to tear a hole in itself…..
Yup, a hole right through the middle, so begins a month of physiotherapy, agonizing stretches and strength training not to mention the impact on the hip pocket and having the bug to skate again after all the years but not being allowed to.
Fast forward to today, the 10th of December, I’ve used the board for all of 30 minutes and every moment since that fateful day it has sat on a chair in my house looking at me with puppy dog eyes begging to get out there and surf the streets.
Well this morning I just had my last physio appointment and it was decreed that I can start skating again….
YOU HEAR THAT LEFT LEG MUSCLE! I CAN START SKATING AGAIN SO YOU BETTER JUST SUCK IT UP AND GET OVER YOURSELF, THIS IS HAPPENING.
AS FOR THE REST OF YOU BODY, DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT ACTING UP, YOU’RE ONLY 37 FOR GOODNESS SAKES SO START ACTING LIKE IT! (Feel free to act like you’re 21 though, might be better for both of us.)
So time will tell if addressing certain parts of my body in full caps type on the internet will pay off but either way I am excited to skate again.
Now let me announce my excitement by showing my age like a dad who is trying to relate to kids using uncool phrases from his youth…..
It’s gonna be rad man, totally bodashus, knarly dude…..
Party time, Excellent.
