My mid-life crisis looks like trying to start a street hockey league.

@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine Oh I'm not actually doing it, I'm just reminiscing about playing when I was younger and I miss it.

My back and knees are like "mfer you serious?"

@Tail Why you not doing it!!! You can make a youth league and coach!

@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine That'd be fun but I wanna PLAY. Idk enough about hockey to coach, I just like hitting things with sticks.

@Tail well, I'm elderly and arthritic and my whole neighborhood every day at 6 a.m. is old men on rollerblades dribbling lax balls on their hockey sticks groaning and hoping not to be seen, trying to get in shape before senior pickup hockey league starts. Lol! You'll find something.

@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine Is it really? That's my jam. I haven't been on skates in over 20 years so I'm pretty rusty, but I always loved playing in the streets. I wouldn't be even the least bit embarrassed to do it now. I don't even have a street to skate on today but when I do, I think I'll definitely start practicing. I'm just worried about my body holding up.

@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine lol, I sure wasn't when I was playing hockey. The folly of youth. Once you hit the point where you start feeling all the bumps and boo-boos you got when you were younger, I try to ask my back and knees for permission before doing anything overtly physical.
