Smarty Pants in London!

Smarty Pants, the derby girl from TXRD who you might have seen on A&E's Rollergirls, is coming to London! It's short notice for a post, but if you want to see her she'll be running a boot camp on Saturday from 1-4 at the North London Optimist Club (Cheapside & Highbury in London, Ontario).

I'm so psyched! Part of the reason I joined derby was that show. Well, first I read about it in Bust Magazine, and then I saw that show. And then I saw a poster for recruiting in our city. When I saw the show, I had thought wow, I wish I could do that! And then when I saw the poster I thought, I'm gonna try that! And now I do it. Feebly, but yes, I do it.

Another great thing is that I know one of the TXRD refs from highschool. Her name's Dee Toxin, and she's a total hard ass. When I say I know her, I really actually do, not in the way that I went to high school with Luke MacFarlane and kind've know him. I actually talk to Dee pretty often, so I'm happy to have something to say to Smarty when she comes--if I don't chicken out like I did with the Gotham Girls :)
