So, long story short...

While Lisa was rollerblading

Lisa made the mistake of

underestimating the slope of the hill

My Advice to You is

make sure you know how to work your brakes when you're rollerblading

Here's the whole story

I'm from Florida where the land is flat. In North Carolina, the land has more hills. I forget this. I rollerblade while my cousins bike-ride and when the hill starts sloping down, they brake, while I roll at turbo-like speeds... either onto a speed bump, or into a tree. I cannot work my brakes so I just fall, and the asphault burns a hole straight through my jeans, into the soft flesh of my bum. No fun, especially when horseback riding was next on our To-Do-List.
