Thanks to a brilliant idea which I cannot take credit for, a bunch of us went ice skating in Bryant Park yesterday. (That would be the park behind the library.) I haven't been ice skating since I was a little kid. I was a little worried because of this - but made a discovery. The same skills that allow you to turn while on skis allow you to turn while on ice skates. Woot! I could even go backwards (veeeeery slowly and poorly) and turn in little circles. Michelle Kwan I'm not, but there was no falling down.

Very crowded rink. I suspect it would have been a lot more fun with fewer people, but ah well. There was an Uma Thurman sighting.

We ended up going for barbeque and Texas-sized margaritas afterwards and then playing drunken air-guitar video games and movie trivia games afterwards. Air guitar I'm remarkably good at. Movie trivia, I'm not.
