Skate kitchen movie soundtrack
Where one minute you could skate to “Walking on Sunshine” and the next to “Point of No Return.” Where obvious meets innuendo. No song exemplifies this like “Waiting for a Star to Fall.” So pop, so happy, so hopeful. The tinny sound of 1980s pop was our lifeblood during these excursions. The times my BFF and I would gain momentum and spin each other around - that felt like the ultimate trick. Going as fast as I could around those curves, daring to pretend I was an Olympian. The Speed Skate was what I enjoyed the most. I once heard something about a salt shaker that traumatized me for a few years (I’m still trying to forget it). And the double awkwardness of hearing rumors about sexual awakenings among your peers. The awkwardness of hovering over a toilet seat on wheels. The agony of deciding whether to do the Slow Skate, and if so, with whom.
Kids wearing their favorite puffy colored socks to bulge over the top of their rental skates and just under their tight-rolled jeans. The roller rink is a vivid memory, the sound of the wheels going round and round. Alexa has a ways to go before she’s a limbo skater, but that doesn’t stop me from reminiscing about those birthday skate parties and Friday Night Free Skates of my youth. Right now the skates mostly serve as vehicles for her pirate dolls and their adventures.

We gave Alexa a pair of roller skates for her birthday this year.
