Fri, 22 Dec 2006 16:47:40 GMT

Things have been messy and hard in the past month'ish. Money is tight (this is a severe understatement) and as usual, the holidays are making me feel aweful about my life. Every single year I seem to be dead ass broke at Christmas time. Ever year I think to myself when does this get easier? There's no answer to that, because I don't have much direction.

I'm on vacation starting at end of day today. I won't be back in the office until January 3rd. This is huge. Tonight I need to sit down and plan out this free time. I need to get shit done.

In other news, I am no longer a Cosmonaughtie. I'm waiting (hopefully not long) to find out my derby fate. wishwish::wickedpissahs::wishwish I wanted to punch out the captain of my team at the last bout, and that made me realize that maybe it was time for me to leave the team. hehe.

Roller Derby this weekend.

Tue, 05 Dec 2006 14:56:32 GMT

Dancers, Prancers & Vixens is THIS Saturday night.
Don't be silly and wait to get your tickets at the door. You will be standing in line in the cold. Order them online.
Come say hi to me. I'm not playing in this bout so i'll be working the merch table for some of the night, so come buy stuff. Yah.

Buy your tickets now for the Boston Derby

Tue, 28 Nov 2006 18:51:37 GMT

Since the fucking day after thanksgiving I can't get away from the Christmas Shopping bonanza. It's giving me fucking stress headaches. I love giving presents (and getting them, too... duh), but I really don't need to have the holiday shoved down my fucking throat. I especially don't need it before I get my holiday bonus (if we get one? gah)

a moment to myself. a break in the chaos.

Wed, 15 Nov 2006 19:11:40 GMT

Here I am on a Wednesday afternoon, looking around and realizing that i've got a little time to myself. No bosses for the rest of the day, and I can let some of my work wait until the morning. This feels good. Things have been way too busy lately. I am someone who really enjoys downtime.

Roller Derby has been super crazy. I love my team, and everone on it. We won our last bout by 32 points I think. We definately kicked some serious ass. This Cosmonaughtie team is a far cry from the last place team it was in March.

Boston Derby Dames merch in general is selling like crazy. Newbury comics placed a huge order to start selling our shirts in their stores. That's just fucking rad as hell. I signed some autographs after the bout, which was really funny... Because it was started by Skid Rose's boyfriend... Then people just started asking. I also signed Daves chest in sharpie. That was the best of all. ha!

There's another bout coming up on December 9th between the Pissahs and the Nutcrackers. My team isn't playing, so we are doing all the production. Hey, want to be Security and get into the bout for free? email me! haha.

If the teams require extra skaters to help the numbers, then I might actually play. That will be decided by the end of the week. Regardless, you should all buy tickets because it's going to be fucking awesome and fun.

You can get info, and a link to online tickets at www.bostonderbydames.com

Sure has been a while.

What time is it?!

Tue, 10 Oct 2006 13:29:08 GMT

Bout advertising time!

The Cosmonaughties (my team) will be bouting The Nutcrackers on November 11th. SAVE THE DATE! All this week the dames will be working on bout production, and we'll have a flyer and more information ready by the weekend. I imagine that in about a week I will have tickets in hand to sell. You will also be able to buy tickets online.

The Cosmonaughties are getting together this week to talk about team merch. We will most definately have t shirts and other lovely items for sale at the bout, and likely a week before as well. I know you want to buy a Cosmonaughties T Shirt or buttons to wear to the bout!!! Don't deny!

I do know that the bout will be held at the current home of the Boston Derby Dames, Shriners Auditorium in Wilmington. If you weren't at the last bout, this place is rediculously easy to get to, and it's not as far as you think.

In other life news... Tonight is Flogging Molly in Providence. YAY! My brother is taking me for my birthday. :D It kinda sucks that it's on a Tuesday night, and that it's in Providence... But I'll take what I can get!

cash money.

Mon, 25 Sep 2006 16:11:19 GMT

so i need a get rich quick scheme. i'm not being greedy! i just want enough to pay my car insurance, and my car payment. is that so much to ask?!

with my 26th birthday quickly approaching something quite strange has been happening. i've gotten baby fever! wtf! i never really put much beleif in the biological clock thing. but seriously, in the past few weeks i can hear it ticking. fuckin weird since i've never really wanted children. yah, every once in a while i've though about it... but it was always just a fleeting thought. now i'm having fucking dreams about it.

saturday was fun. skid rose came over. hung out, had some drinks... blah blah, usual stuff. she's awesome though. good times. sunday had lunch with q. sand. i ran into my old friend adam. so random! but it was cool. told him i was playing roller derby now, and he was all excited that he now knows a dame. he promised to hit our events and stuff, so i hope he does!

flogging molly is playing providence in a few weeks. it's on a tuesday night. yah, tell me about how much that sucks. seriously. the week after that social d. is playing on a monday and tuesday. sweet. no sleep.

work has sucked lately. that's really all i have to say about that. hmmm. im definately cranky. heh.

Cosmonaughties forever!

Mon, 18 Sep 2006 14:21:29 GMT

the bout was amazing. if you weren't there, you should be kicking yourself right about now. (sorry alison!) we had a crowd of 1,200 people. everyone got into the action. screaming, chanting, stomping their feet. skid rose made me the best sign ever. there's a picture of it below. krista made me a freaking awesome sign too, but i don't have a picture of it yet.

i'll have to write about it later. i still can't even think. here are some pictures from after the bout.
left to right - buseys boyfriend, skid rose, me, maura buse: MVP of the bout!

me and the dude, steven.

me and the sign skid rose made for me!

i've got a crush on roller derby.

Thu, 14 Sep 2006 15:33:13 GMT

Cosmonaughtie practice last night was fucking intense. Intense in a very good way. We talked a lot about our bout strategy. How to combat the front line of the Pissahs. How to stop Shattered from running the pack. We also got the lineup for Saturday night. I'm in 6 out of every 12 jams, and i'm replacement jammer for a few others. Which means I will be playing more than 50%of the bout. FYI- that's a LOT. I'm fucking psyched that they have so much confidence in me. I know I won't let them down.

My crush on Steven is rediculous. I'm happy that he will be there Saturday. I hope a lot of people show up. At least I know the important people to me will be there. That will make me play a little harder, etc. I don't think i've done any fucking work all week. I just can't concentrate.

Uniform.

Wed, 13 Sep 2006 13:42:42 GMT

I stayed up until 2am last night finishing my uniform. Here is a crappy cell phone picture of the back...

There is a silver panel on each side of the dress. Oh, and I changed my number from 40oz to 3.31.25. I wanted something that meant more to me so I changed it before I played my first bout. It's my grandmothers birthdate and it makes me happy.

The bout is 4 days away, and I'm starting to get really nervous.

dear my right shoulder.

Mon, 11 Sep 2006 13:57:35 GMT

i fucking hate you. that's right shoulder, i hate you. i hurt my shoulder at a scrimmage last tuesday. i hurt it again at practice on friday. i have a fucking bout to play in, uhm, 6 days. it needs to get better pretty fucking fast. i need to go to cvs this morning. yah, that's what i need. celadrin will make me better.

the weekend was really good and kinda shitty. one of those ups and downs weekends. spent some time with steven which was definately the up part. also went to a bbq at skid rose's place, which was another up. met some of her and dave's friends. good stuff. but the derby part of the weekend sucked. i didn't practice since i got hurt on friday, and sitting there watching a practice is a form of torture. this is not really a good time for me to be sitting around doing nothing.

COSMONAUGHTIES!

Fri, 08 Sep 2006 16:08:08 GMT

ok. i'll give this another try. this is my picture for next weekends bout program!

mouse in the house.

Fri, 08 Sep 2006 14:31:30 GMT

so last week we finally caught the little mouse that had been running around the apartment for two weeks. sherry brought it down the street i'm assuming, and it ran/hopped away. well, more mouse poo on my floor, and i can hear it at night. wtf! is it another one?! or is it the same mouse? my coworkers are saying it's the same mouse, but i just can't beleive that. the first one was just a young mousey. i doubt it could find it's way back.

i don't think i would care as much if it didn't shit everywhere on the floor. it's gross, and annoying.

in other news. i've never actually had bad thoughts about an ex before. i usually just live and let live... i prefer to remain friends, but if that isn't working for the other person: fine. but right now i couldn't be more upset. i don't want to see him, i don't want to hear from him, i don't want anything to do with this person anymore. i have changed my aim name, i have deleted this person from all of my internet shit... my life is so good right now, and the only thing that's bringing me down is this person. wtf.

sigh back to work.

Tue, 05 Sep 2006 13:58:49 GMT

this weekend was extremely relaxing. i slept more in my 3 days off then i have in a loooong time. steven had to cancel our plans, cause get this... he couldn't find a sitter for his dogs. haha. it's fucked up that i met someone so much like me. yesterday was the bdd party at great scott. i only went for a few hours in the evening. it was fun, i just didn't want to be up late on a work night. *OLD LADY ALLERT*

back to work this morning, and it's going to be one of those weeks where i have so much to do, that it makes me want to do none of it because it's so overwhelming. hence why i'm typing on lj instead of starting to get it done. ugh.

BUY TICKETS FOR SEPTEMBER 16TH!
I ordered two different dresses for my uniform. I figured since once they get here i'll have such a short time to sew the silver on, and make size alterations... that i better get two different because i won't have time to reorder if i don't like one. Speaking of... they should be getting here today! Eeeeeee! Well, at least one of them. Alison- get this... A girl on our team is a seamstress, and has offered to do all the alterations for the uniforms! (as you breathe a huge sigh of relief!) HAHA!

the bout.

Thu, 31 Aug 2006 15:55:20 GMT

i can't beleive my first bout is right around the corner! i had my first team practice with the cosmonaughties last night. they gave us (me, gangsta, and d. way) an awesome welcome. cake and beers, ect. after our practice. in my head i know that the pissahs have a much stronger team than we do, but my heart is telling me that we have a shot of not getting slaughtered.

please, buy tickets! it's so important that we have a good turnout for our first bout at shriners! this place holds 2,700! no, we won't sell it out- i'm not crazy. but it would be nice to really pack people in.

or, come find me - i've got some!

Naughtie.

Mon, 28 Aug 2006 15:39:33 GMT

Last night was the team draft, and I am now a Cosmonaughtie. Yah Alison, that shirt we made is pretty stupid right about now. haha. I guess it was an ugly situation, and there is still some stuff going on - but I have accepted my place on the Naughties, and I will grow to love it. Funny that my first bout will be AGAINST the Wicked Pissahs. Sad.

Check this out...
http://www.theepochtimes.com/news/6-8-27/45385.html

I was pretty excited about my picture being in the same article TWICE. haha. I'm kind of a big deal. :D hahaha

Today I'm tired and sore from last night.

Who wants tickets?

fuck the rain!

Fri, 25 Aug 2006 16:26:09 GMT

tryouts tonight got cancelled because they were supposed to be outside. yargh! instead of two nights of tryouts, now it will just be one. sunday evening. i am on the white team. alison, you might find this funny since i only made a black shirt so far. haha. looks like i only need white. thank goodness you made me that extra transfer for a white shirt! :)

tonight is mandatory flyer'ing for the september 16th bout. meh. without tryouts, i'd rather just stay home. i guess i don't have that option.

*pouty girl*

just because you're going frontwards, doesn't mean i'm going backwards.

Thu, 24 Aug 2006 14:06:36 GMT

RancidRancidRancid!

met up with steven, lyric and ricky at the cask 'n flagon on tuesday night. we had some drinks there, and then headed down to the show. much to my surprise, h2o was opening! fuck! i was so freakin excited. i hadn't looked up who was opening because the tickets got offered to me kind of last minute. i was more of a trouble maker then steven anticipated. haha. i like him.

so h2o was fucking awesome, rancid was fucking awesome - the whole show was great. went to boston beer works after the show where i fell asleep. haha. damnit! why am i such an old lady?!?!?!?! give me a few beers on a day that i worked, and i'm ready for beddy bye. we all stayed at some hotel and i got a cab to my car in the morning. little did i know that at some point during the night i had lost my car key. SWEEET. i had to ask sherry to come pick me up so i could hunt down my spare key at home. (which i did find, yay!) sherry's fucking awesome, she wasn't even annoyed. by the way, it was 7:30 in the morning. haha. it's probably not hard to beleive that i would do something like that anyways. i had already called into work because of the key incident, so i just enjoyed the rest of my free time sleeping.

steven invited me back to rancid again last night, so of course i went. fearless vampire killers (aka - cro mags) opened up. the crowd was full of 15-19 year old faux punk kids. they had no idea who they were actually seeing. eh, whatever. i enjoyed it. claire d. way came with us too. i love that girl. definately one of my new favorite people.

tonight - i will be making a shirt *somehow* (haha) for tryouts tomorrow night. i started with major lofty idea's - and now i'm ready to just write on plain shirts with a sharpie. :D

kiss me once...

Tue, 22 Aug 2006 15:12:46 GMT

team tryouts start on friday. i need to stop thinking about it. seriously.

tonight is rancid with steven. i'm skipping practice to go, but this will only be my second missed practice since i started playing - no guilt here.

my body is pretty sore and stiff today. hmmm. yah that's all.

best. derby. weekend. evah.

Mon, 21 Aug 2006 13:13:32 GMT

friday night was the benefit party at the milky way. for a good portion of the night we were at capacity, and thus there was a line outside waiting for people to leave before they could come in. needless to say, we raked in a ton of dough; far more than we had anticipated. that's pretty fucking awesome. :D we sold a bunch of merch, and an ok number of raffle tickets.

saturday practice was really hard, but good. we have lost mass art as a practice space due to their demo'ing the bleachers. to the best of my knowledge, they aren't being replaced. boo. so our new home is columbus park- outside. we are at the mercy of the rain gods for now.

sunday (yesterday) was our most successful public scrimmage to date. thundadome was announcing the scrimmage- the track was full, and so were the bleachers. first period was a little sloppy, and the reffing was terrible... but once we all got our skate legs, and our minds were in the game - we all stepped it up 10 fold. only two injuries- fevah broke her finger, and quick sandy did something to her knee: nothing was broken, but likely some kind of bone contusion. asside from those: there were only the usual bumps, bruises, and fishnet burn. i ended up with the last two. my ass/thigh has mad fishnet burn/bruise. still stings like all hell. heh.

we went out for a drink after at the stadium bar. i just stayed for one beer, and i was in my car by 9:15 on my way home. of course i wasn't able to sleep until nearly 1am anyways.

tomorrow is rancid with stephen. YAY! i haven't seen rancid in a really really long time. :D

what has gotten into me?

Wed, 16 Aug 2006 14:35:47 GMT

stephen invited me to download fest on sunday. ticket = free. limo so that no one has to drive, and everyone can drink. dropkick murphys and black 47 (and other bands i don't give an f about). am i going? nah. i'd rather scrimmage. haha. what the fuck?

team tryouts are a week from friday. that means that this sunday is the last scrimmage before tryouts. there's no way i'm missing it because of a boy, that's for sure.

big things are coming.
friday night at the milky way in JP is BLOCK 'N ROLL!

Nothing makes a Derby Dame angrier than spending the long, hot summer with no place to bout, so now that we've found a temporary home at Shriners Auditorium in Wilmington, we're hosting a throw-down like none other.

Plotting their moves from deep within the Vulvatron lab, the Cosmonaughties are hellbent to kick off the next Cold War one derby battle at a time. Meanwhile the Wicked Pissahs have been building up their mighty tans on Revere Beach and are set to show the 'Naughties just how the locals get things done. Don't miss the showdown when space brains meets townie brawn in Boston Derby Dames' back-to-school brawl.

Directions: Shriners is just 15 minutes north of Boston at exit 39 on I-93. Ample free parking is available. Or take the Haverhill/Reading commuter rail from North Station to the Wilmington stop and jump on our free shuttle bus to the auditorium.

Public Transportation: Take the 4:00 pm Lowell commuter rail from North Station (MBTA Green or Orange Line). Get off at the Wilmington Station to catch the FREE BDD shuttle bus to Shriners Auditorium. The shuttle will leave after the bout in time for the 9:14 train from Wilmington back to North Station.

comcast internet is too fucking expensive for one person, so i'm cancelling them in a week or two. this means they will be deleting my email account. so again, i have to be that person who changes their email address and loses half the people in their address book. gah, hate.

anyhow - new email address = bettyspite@gmail.com

gmail is free, and it's cooler then comcast mail anyways. so bite me comcast. add me! email me! etc!
