For my 27th birthday, I decided I wanted to take myself and my best friends out to skate. What in the world could possibly be more hilarious than watching your friends totter and flail on wheels? Answer: Absolutely nothing.\n\nI don't think the skating rink has changed a bit since I stopped going in the early 90s, and that, my friends, is a lovely thing. The same tan skates, the same multi-colored globe lights. The same music. Again, the SAME music.\n\nThe teenagers working there still think they're pretty much too cool for school and I have a feeling they were snickering at us in the break room. We got some nachos, and the chips were slightly stale and the cheese wasn't actually cheese, I don't think, and we ate every bit. For all of the things that should have made this a bad experience, they all fed in to make it an incredibly fun experience. We laughed, wobbled and fell all afternoon, and it was much more fun than being an adult.
