Skate

I was in my room it was June 19. I went to go to the restroom and then I ate. I went to go change. I went outside to go to my friends house. I was at my friends house and we played at his house.

With a clap of her well-manicured hands, Laura announces that the campers are to begin ice skating. Claire and I head to the rental station, where a large cluster of people socialize by, and request for kids size twelve skates. The lady at the counter, who has wild purple hair, a nose ring, and a snake tattoo crawling up her arm, turns around and pulls out a pair of comically yellow ice skates. “Sorry, hon’, that’s the only pair we have,” she drawls in her deep strong southern accent, and I…

This order contains 600 species and 26 families. Along with flattened bodies, protruding cartilage, and an absent anal fin are major synapomorphies…
