YEAH IT HURTS!  I did gymnastics forever, and it's so painful.  BLAHHHHH.  I remember when I got my first 26 inch bicycle.  I jumped straight up from a twelve inch, so I wasn't used to it at all, but I had long legs and was tall (not much has changed, eh?), so we figured it would be all good.  Well, I wasn't used to the hand brakes, so I tried pushing my foot back on the pedal to stop it, and when nothing happened and I almost crashed into my mailbox, I just jumped off and landed on the bar.  DAMN it hurt.  I was a major tomboy back then, though, so I just played it off all cool and shit.  I sure learned from that.

Sex is like math:
You plus me
Minus the clothes
Divide the legs
And hope we don't multiply
Cheers to skier chicks!
We may be few and far between, but we're definitely out there!
