Ice Ice Baby

My friend PL set up a rink in his back yard this winter and I went to his house on Saturday night with SR for an inaugural skating party, which he dubbed the Winter Classic. It was a mild evening, which is to say only a few degrees below freezing during what has been quite a cold spell, and we had an enjoyable and unforgettable evening. It was an introductory night for SR and PL, which is as hard to imagine as it is shameful considering how long I have known them and how much I cherish them both. It had been far too long, but as it always is with good friends, the years quickly melted away and we had a fantastic evening of skating and playing and falling down before retiring inside his impossibly tiny apartment for a taste of his finesse as a DJ. I was extremely and almost awkwardly inspired by my friends PL and SC and delighted to share the same with SR, as well as pleased at her enthusiastic response.
