    48. Joined an actuary writing subgroup. (5/16)

    I've slowed down a bit on this, but luckily I set a good pace early on.

    As for rollerblading, it doesn't take much to learn how to do it but it takes a long time to be good at it. I would not say I am good at it by any means. I haven't been out to do it in a while due to weather, timing, and some knee problems.

    Like in a bank heist movie where the hallway is filled with laser trip wires that will set off the alarm. Or in Metal Gear Solid where you need to equip the cigarettes so Snake can crawl under the right spot. Just those everywhere in a dark room with some “loot” at the end.

    I did it because my youngest kid didn’t want to take his turn and I already paid.

    There is one I have been saving. It is walk up the 17 flights of stairs to work. I need someone to let me in at the top.
