Yes, I own a pair of $400 roller skates. Did I mention that I play roller derby with the Ohio Roller Girls? Hence, the skates.
I'm normally pretty frugal with the cash. Sure, we buy what we want. The trick is we don't want much.
I was thinking about the skates today, because I really haven't used them as much as I would have liked. I played one game in them, then got pregnant and couldn't play anymore. I have skated maybe 30 or so speed skating practices in them. I just found out today that our league is restructuring and in such a way that a player like me, who has been on maternity leave for 10 months, will have a hard time getting any playing time on game day. My heart is a bit broken.
And, of course, I want to get my money's worth on those skates.
So what do I do? Do I stick it out, go to practices, etc. and risk not getting to play? Or do I leave the league?
I just don't know.
