In Which I Am A TRAMPIRE!!!!

So you are now reading the blog of an official DOCKYARD DERBY DAMES TRAMPIRE!!!

I am having to physically restrain myself from writing this entire blog post LIKE THIS!!! by the way.  Because seriously, that's how excited I am.  However, I understand that it would be sort of painful to read, so I'm sparing you that sort of post. 

Be appreciative, people.  You have no idea how difficult it is for me to form actual coherent sentences at this point.  I've been mostly reduced to capering around in the middle of my living room gibbering in excitement.  I was doing it in our bedroom, but I got kicked out of there because I was being a tad bit too loud.  Also I may or may not have jumped up and down on top of our bed yelling "I'M A TRAMPIRE!!!" at the top of my lungs while Jeremy was trying to sleep. 

I admit to nothing.

Anyway, so obviously I made a roller derby team!  We had our draft interviews tonight and found out at the end of the evening.  I spent most of the day working myself into a crazed state of nervous excitement and watching the hours absolutely creep by.  I swear there were at least four extra hours in the day today.  By evening I'd pretty much convinced myself there was absolutely no way I was making a team, but I should go anyway and offer everybody else moral support.  When my name was called at the end of the night it actually took a second to sink in because I was half-convinced I'd deluded myself into hearing my name called when it was in fact someone else's.

But it was my name, and so now I'm on a team and everything!  And it is a team of complete and total awesomeness, too, which certainly doesn't hurt anything.  Seriously, these girls are my heroes.  I've got some big skates to fill!

Now I know that I told you I'd announce my derby name tonight if I made a team, but I'm waffling again.  I'm kind of bad about that.  As soon as I know what it is for sure I'll tell you, I promise.  Cross my heart.

So in conclusion, TRAMPIRES!!! WOOOOHOOOOO!!!
