2020 baby!

Did my first game of the year, as front OPR.  Went pretty well, except for the part where I fell in the first jam (I skated waaaay too close to the track boundary and tripped over the rope) and the jammer happened to be going the outside so I was like must scootch must scootch must get up mustn't get run over by the jammer but fortunately she called the jam so it was ok.

That and the fact that the pack was FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAST and there were a few times I had to do actual backwards crossovers.  Should probably work on those.

That and the fact that it was crazy loud (lots of people + acoustics) and I had to call my penalties a bazillion times (and I don't think I did the finger swoop at the end of any of them, MUST WORK ON THAT).  I know I got screechy instead of louder, too.  MUST WORK ON THAT.

Planning for Battle of the All Stars continues.  SO HARD YO.  Hopefully it will not explode and no one will die.
