Robi and the roller skates: February 2011
http://robiandtherollerskates.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Robi and the roller skates. Thursday, February 3, 2011. La vie quotidienne à Paris. Let's start off with me and my confused face about the strange upside-down dispensers. Ok, so wow. What a couple of days. This keyboard is French, so if there's any errant Qs where there should be an A, that's why. I'm not gunna lie, it's already pissing me off. You have to use shift to use a full stop for shit's sake and it took me (no joke) fifteen minutes to figure out how to type the @ symbol! The AD-i-das right there?

Robi and the roller skates. Tuesday, January 25, 2011. A snowflake in my eye. I'd better use this firework to clean that up. So, off we popped. getting out of NY city was actually not as hard as I thought it would be, and we were on the road in no time. We drove and drove and drove some more, I found some cool energy drinks, so when we drove past the sign to the fireworks store, I was buzzing for more reasons than one. Oddly, Kat was not excited at all. And i said 'You haven't heard me sing.'. Sunday we ...

Robi and the roller skates. Thursday, May 26, 2011. I didn't even smell the wee. Right I officially should not be writing this, I should be writing my thesis but I am too brain dead to write anything of quality, so blog it is. DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO YOU SMARMY BITCH! Well, she didn't say that, but in my mind that's how it panned out. By now she must be almost one hundred and TEN! Michi just looked at me and then said 'Rob, Aunty Maude is dead.' hahah I was like 'WHUT? Why did nobody tell me this? My te...

Robi and the roller skates. Tuesday, January 14, 2014. I was a thirty-something racist: part one. This is long; get a coffee. I am Australian and I am a racist. Well, at least I was. I’ve been slapped in the face by the unforgiving palm of reality, and the shame-filled ripple effect it has caused is growing in intensity, rather than petering back out to the calm waters that once were my life. The shittiest part is: I was the worst. Sound like anyone you know? Child: ‘Why would a man, with a fleet a...

Robi and the roller skates. Tuesday, October 29, 2013. Mental Illness Is Not A Dirty Word. Well, words. but you get my drift. This post has been a long time coming. It has not been easy to write it, much less click on the publish button, a task that I will undertake in just a few short minutes. It is a test. It is not for me; it is for you. What is it testing, you ask? So I wrote about it. I am ready to tell this story. It’s possibly a good idea to grab a coffee and sit down. I’m afraid of the dark.

Robi and the roller skates. Friday, May 18, 2012. What's a Pirate's favourite letter? Let me begin by divulging that I type this with only one eye, which is tiring, irritating and just plain odd. So, please forgive me spelling and grammar mistakes, should they occur. It's really my own doing, and if you care to read on, you will find out why. Diddle-de-dee, diddle-de-dee, diddle-de-dee, diddle-de-dee. Whilst researching Beriberi, I came across (in a medical dictionary) a nifty little thing called Bell's ...

Robi and the roller skates. Sunday, March 20, 2011. I should go into the ice pack business. Well I don't think anyone could have predicted that bout. Let me put it in context. Which looks pretty normal, over the course of about 5 photos becomes this:. Yes, and there's me sprawled on the ground (white socks). And what about this little gem:. Now I'm getting ridden like a pony. The after party, despite being on a Sunday, was pretty sweet. Although I had planned to get. Labels: Adelaide Roller Derby. In abo...

Robi and the roller skates: September 2012

Robi and the roller skates. Friday, September 7, 2012. SHOCKING NEWS (really only moderately shocking: startling at best, noteworthy at worst). And I'm starting with a rant. And a preposition. Twice. Ok so the rant is on bicycles. There is a chance that I have let fly about them and the persons who operate them on a previous occasion, or seventeen, but nonetheless, here is another. Bike riders, on the other hand, are alright, especially since I am now one. They include, but are not limited to:. The categ...

Robi and the roller skates. Monday, July 18, 2011. Welcome back Kotter. or should I say codger? It's rare that I will refer to myself as 'old', even more seldom as a 'codger', but I feel like one today. I'm all creaks and groans and I have dropped things on the floor and left them there because I am just not doing any bending today. I'm not even talking heavy shit: I blew my nose and missed the bin with the tissue. Yup, I'm. The Salty Dolls (who we played) were undefeated all season, and were on. If you ...
