Here come the lesbians, here come the leaping lesbians...

Yep, another non leaping lesbian. It seems as I get older, trying to find local community has gotten harder. Even spending time with my local friends, life has gotten in a hurry and there seems to be no time to socialize. I frequently have gone to see Suede at the Birchmere and it was jam packed. Last time I went, it wasn't hard to find a seat.

The most beautiful images of all of us lesbians, leaping & cavorting, fill my mind every time I read the title of this thread. All of us in our many hued, many styles, many gendered splendor:-)

Although I still consider myself a leaping lesbian, last Friday night at softball practice I realized that my softball glove is now 25 years old.

*Warning*.......today I will attempt to leap!! This could be ugly, lol

AtLast · 05-25-2011, 02:11 PM

I agree. I just don't leap as high as I used to. Phooey!!

Really?! I haven't played softball in 30! Though there is a league called the Golden Girls and 1 gal has been trying to recruit me to play for close to 2 years....Now that could be uglier than watching me try to leap!

I miss softball. And my glove. And my purple aluminum bat.

I suppose I could still play tho not leap. Except I would want a chair in the field with me.....preferably with a coffee holder, and a battery operated fan.
And maybe my own personal designated fielder/runner.

Why is Springsteens "Glory Days" playing in my head?

NJFemmie · 05-25-2011, 03:24 PM

Leap? Ha.
Maybe after the advil kicks in.

Kate Clinton is not funny.

Another challenge has been to figure out how to play softball while wearing bi-focals. And how to not get injured.
I had no idea how easy it all was when I was a hot young softball stud. Now i look across to the other dugout and see the kids looking at ME with sympathy--- just like I used to look at them.
It's kind of great to see how far we've all come.

It's not exactly leaping, but it's pretty darned close. Not only was I able to start riding my small spare motorcycle last Saturday, I was able to ride it an hour out of town this morning, successfully complete all the exercises required in the new ARC class, and then ride it home this evening. I'm triumphantly exhausted.

And I jumped in the air! It was a very small jump to point out something on the blackboard, but as soon as I did it I remembered that I'm a leaping lesbian again.

This leaping thing is certainly grounds for celebration. Tomorrow marks three months since my very serious accident. The final, (I think), broken bone count is 22 including 9 to my lumbar spine. And I jumped and rode my motorcycle today. The old bones have healed like fresh, young, new ones. Yay!
