Ice fly (and not the Edea kind)

I skated my final contracted practice session before tomorrow's test. Here are my observations:

Observation #1 - When did my back outside edges become so slow? I mean, Christopher wanted me to slow them down but damn. I almost fell asleep doing them. I can only imagine how bored the judges will be while watching me skate them.

Observation #2 - Dead fly on the ice! I hope it's not a sign. Every time I skated by him (or her?) I checked to make sure it was still in one piece. The last time I skated by, it was gone. It could be anywhere now.

Observation #3 - Apparently, if you wake up late, it's acceptable to skate in kitty pajamas. Good to know.

Observation #4 - I can, indeed, skate without gloves. I don't like the way the nude colored gloves look with my dress (because I'm pale and the gloves look really dark on me). So I went the whole hour skating without gloves to get used to the feeling. I only felt naked for the first five minutes and then I didn't notice. No gloves for me!

Observation #5 - I think I'm ready for tomorrow as long as I am confident that I know what I'm doing. I know what I'm doing....right?
