Chainsaw Chelsea - Dreaming About Derby

If any of you know me - you know that I am an extremely vivid dreamer. I can have four dreams in a night and remember them all sometimes. During our season I have dreams about all of our games. Most of these are anxiety dreams as I like to call them. One time I had a dream that we had an outdoor track and it was snowing (WE’RE IN FLORIDA) and Wu-Tang Clan was performing. Another time Tiger Beatdown and I were accused of cheating in a relay race and got in the faces of these two guys. Anyway - our season starts on September 25th and I have officially had my first anxiety dream about it. So in my dream I missed the entire first half because I over slept - which might I add is nearly impossible because I don’t sleep past 10am EVER and our games start at 5. I had to take a train to get there(I DON’T KNOW WHY!) and I was sitting next to this little girl with a wand the whole way. I get there and the venue is HUGE. Not only is it huge but it’s packed to full capacity. It’s the biggest crowd I’ve ever had to skate in front of in my whole life. When I start getting ready I realize I only have my outdoor skates. It wouldn’t be a big deal that I have the widest grippiest wheels ever except that I jam for my team. Also not only do I have to jam, but I have to jam against Blitzkrieg - the fastest girl on 8 wheels. Half time is just about over and I’m walking up this ramp next to a limo and Shod N. Froyda is in it and I beg her relentlessly for her Atom Poison Slims. Yes they’re grippy, but I’m sure they’re better than my big ass purple Atom Centuri’s. As these wheels are near and dear to her she begrudgingly hands them over because she’s my homie. I ask her if she’s got a skate tool and she pulls out a pink one with flower designs on it. If any of you know Shod N. Froyda you know she doesn’t have a pink friggin skate tool. SO I full on sprint into the arena and I’m a little thrown off that Arkham is where we usually are. My entire team is already on the track warming up. I am in full on panic mode at this point. Mid-run I think “OMFG I NEED WATER”. I get to our bench and fortunately there is a beer pong sized table with water and gatorade on it and it is full from end to end. With a sigh of relief I plop my ass down and begin unscrewing the nuts on my skates like a maniac. AND THEN I WAKE UP FML.
