Skating with Hey Rosetta!

"What's to come only fate can show, see her move like a toreador, wielding her cloak and sword."
- Hey Rosetta!, New Goodbye

This morning, I miraculously pulled myself out of bed at 8:30, caught the 9 am bus, and went to the gym with Sister Beauty. Sister Joy was also supposed to come with us, but she had an exam this morning. Sister Beauty and I decided that if one person is unable to go, the other two will still go, just to make sure that we still go every week.

After class, I went skating with Hey Rosetta!. I am hoping it will be a regular Tuesday activity (we went last week as well) because it is highly enjoyable, both for her company and for the exercise. I am not a strong skater, as I have only skated a handful of times after elementary school.

We talked the whole time we were skating about anything and everything. The only topic we never discuss is sex. We joke about it, yes (the fact that I have slept with seven people and she has only had a crush on two has made me being promiscuous into a running joke) but we don't actually talk about it. I don't even know for sure if she has had sex with Hamlet. They have been dating for almost four years, but for some reason I just don't think they have. Sometimes the time is almost right that I could ask, but I always back down. I don't think I'm meant to know, despite my curiosity.

I told her about dancing with Cowboy on Saturday, and how I had realized Sunday night that I hadn't told Wrecking Ball. I explained that the dancing didn't mean anything to me, but it certainly meant something to Cowboy, and I wasn't sure if I should tell Wrecking Ball or not. She said I should be fine with not telling him, and if he were to find out (these are her words, not mine) I have one free pass for a ridiculous drunken action, seeing as Wrecking Ball kissed our gay friend Eevee on the night of my birthday. I thought that logic sounded perfectly sound, and I had already been 95% sure I didn't need to tell him anyway. This really eased my mind though.

Hey Rosetta!'s favourite band is, can you guess, Hey Rosetta!. They are playing in town next month, and I am very excited. She is my absolute favourite person to see concerts with. We have been to three together. I am hoping to make it five: Hey Rosetta! in February and then, with a little luck, Mother Mother in March. That would be so great. All we need is a car and a hotel room. We can totally arrange that.
