vlog 01.28.12 - Sick!, League Switch!, and Other Awesomes!

Been a while, huh?

I'm sick. On anti-biotics and codeine. Gonna get better!

Moved from the west side of LA to the east side. Love it!

I am no longer a Varsity Brawler with the LA Derby Dolls. I left the banked track for flat. I am now a Hollywood Scarlet with Angel City Derby Girls. Very excited.

I'm glad you decided to do another video. :) And since I semi-recently messaged you about you doing another vlog, I think I will take some credit for you posting a new video. :D Yay! Also cheers to getting better. You sounded semi-somber. I'd like to see you feeling better.

@QueenFiria Take all the credit. hahaha. ;)

Welcome to the flat track! Take care of your health, and everything will be a bit better. My blog is Transitioning to roller derby as well!

[debutantebrawl]

@Forlorn79 Nice! Where do you skate?

Penny: Nice to have another vlog from you (albeit under the weather so to speak). Do feel better soon and congrats to you (and the the rest of your team) on your new Derby gig. Lastly, some more factoids about your number 108:

According to martial artists, there are 108 pressure points in the body, where consciousness and flesh intersect to give life to the living being.

An official Major League Baseball baseball has 108 stitches.

There are 108 cards in a deck of UNO cards.

All the best....

@karaokepmp Whoa!!! So many 108 facts! It's a pretty special number. :)

Nooooooo!!!!!!!! Come back to the dark side of banked track roller derby! Fuck yea!

[Forlorn79]

@debutantebrawl I skate with the Hellions of Troy in New York. I just made it as a player after being a referee for them and graduating from fresh meat.

@Jenna08848 I got a chest xray! Put me on antibiotics and codeine. I think I'm all better now. I think. :) Just a terrible lung infection. Blah. I don't want that again.

@Teslagirl7 There's a girl in my league that's 49, I believe. Check out Angel City's Tumblr. There's a little story about her. I myself am almost 33 and consider myself in my prime with some years ahead of me. And yeah, I'm pretty sure most of the league knows about my past and def my entire team and they seem pretty fine with me. Haven't had a run-in here, my last league or any other place I've skated. I met a few vlog viewers at the last RollerCon, too. Pretty great community.

@SupaHead1977 Yikes. I dunno. I've only dated girls since. And they've known. Everyone has to make their own decisions. But my personal feelings have been that I wouldn't want to keep it from my special person. Besides, I want them to know that I can't have my own kids, don't expect to see any photos of me as a little girl, and I'd hate for it to come up later on down the road. That could be an unforgivable shock, I'd imagine.

@Daymnwheresmycola I think most do. It's an open secret, I guess? I don't hide it but I don't advertise it. It's not really important in my day to day. People seem to find out from other people, so what's the point. I have this vlog with well over half a million hits. Silly to pretend it's a secret. Not that I'm well known in derby as being trans or anything. It honestly just doesn't get brought up.

[debutantebrawl]

@TransInsight That's pretty much my take on it now. And yes, talking more about derby instead has been on my mind. :) Get out of my brain!
