slip
raze i was walking in winter half my life ago when i hit a patch of black_ice, and before i knew what was happening i was in the air. i thought i'd fall and break my neck. it wasn't the good kind of accidental flight. it didn't give me a good feeling. but my body did a funny thing. for a moment it became the body of a figure skater without the proper footwear, and it did something that resembled a double axel before returning me to the earth for a perfect landing on a square of sidewalk past the ice that made it all happen. i laughed in disbelief, collected myself, and went on walking.

i don't talk much about my figure skating past. it only lasted for a few seconds, and there was no one around to see it when it was the present and not the past. but it happened just the same.
