Sometimes my existence is like archaeology, a little.

For example, I have a delicious bookmark tag called "adventur". It's where I stash webpages about events, exhibits, and other things I might like to go ADVENTURING to. This morning I thought I'd clean it out a little and found I had bookmarked the hours for the Millennium Park skating rink.

The thing is...I can't skate. I mean can you imagine? It's not like I've never been on the ice or anything, but I can't even stand up without falling, let alone move around. And nobody thinks it's a good idea for me to learn now, right?

So the question then arises: why the balls did I bookmark it? What was my aim or goal? Do I have friends who need this information? I have no idea. It's like a hieroglyph.

In case you're wondering, however, here it is. IDK. Enjoy.

They do require judicious application. I usually carry a plastic grocery bag and take them off once I get to the bus stop, or leave them in the car ... depends on how far I'm going and how bad the ice is. Good boots can be a better solution - I prefer not to change shoes, so this is a lighter-weight solution.

The problem for me was that they weren't exactly easy to take off. Every time I put them on or took them off it was twenty minutes of struggling, and I sliced my hands to hell and back -- but the next size up just fell off my boots. :/
