I never know how to pose for pictures, let alone pictures of me in my roller derby gear. Angry face? Tried it. I’m not tough! So a wink it is. *Wink!*
I’m such a dork.

Love it! You look fantastic.
One of my clients is an original flat track rollergirl from Austin, TX. She wrote the book Rollergirl: Totally True Tales From the Flat Track. She’s PERFECTED the mean tough face (but is in reality a total sweetheart).

Lots of derby girls are total sweethearts! It’s funny, the perception vs. the reality.
You look awesome. I love the wink. It makes the picture look like a lot of fun.
I LOVE this picture! You look great. Fun tights too.
That name is he-larious.
a bone crunching, elbow bashing, floor shredding dork. I totally love it! What a great alter ego!
Um, you don’t have to have a tough face, when you are in roller derby! That’s intimidation enough, in my mind. :)
You look so much like Eleanor in this picture!
Love it! Even the track is pink to match.
what an awesome alter ego!
AWESOME! Hey dorks of the world unite! You have fabulous design with the occasional roller derby, Storm Troopers and zombie-attack wedding photos thrown in. What more could you ask for in a blog?
Love it, I do! (there’s some Yoda for ya.)
BTW, my fourteen-year-old son has determined that Home Depot is the best place to be in a zombie apocalypse just so you’re prepared… Now that I think of it, you could have an interesting roller-derby in Home Depot too…
:)
I’m with Erin; you look just like your daughter–or more accurately, I can really see that she looks like you when I look at this picture.
So cute! The wink works!
Love the picture! I think the wink works. I usually go for a half smile/smirk in my headshots.
I always look like such a dork in game pictures. Either my mouth is open and all you can see is mouth guard or the photographer catches me in mid-blink.
Did you get a chance to watch the final game in the World Cup yesterday? Although Team USA spanked Team Canada, I’m still really proud of the way my country’s team played.

I took my mouth guard out for the pictures! I saw some of the early bouts, but I wasn’t able to catch the final ones. I bet it was great fun to watch.
How awesome was the World Cup? With personal friends and team mates in Team Australia, it made it extra exciting.

My mom always said, kill em with kindness. So the wink works lol.
You are a rockin dork!
You look great! I love the tights.
That’s awesome! I love those hot pink tights!
Love love love. I wish I had the guts to do roller derby!
Now see.. I just don’t get it.
You do look cute as all get out, but I don’t get the whole roller derby thing. It seems like a lot of aggression to me.
I like a little competition now and then, more than aggression. But we don’t scrimmage much — I’m focused on improving my skating skills.
AWESOME! I’ve been following your blog since before you had Eleanor, and I LOVE that you’re playing derby now. Isn’t it amazing? :)
But you’re such a cute dork and DORKS RULE!
Nothing wrong with being dorkie.
I make my bout debut this weekend and I’m so excited.
How’s your training?
I’m not getting better as quickly as I’d like, but I can’t devote more than once a week to it (and I’ve missed some weeks lately too).
Okay, I feel like an idiot, but I have to ask about your name. I’m assuming it’s some kind of play on words, but I can’t figure out what it’s referring to? (I have a feeling I’m going to feel really dumb once it’s explained…)
Elle Decor, the shelter magazine. Melissa thought of it!
I am obsessed with you. You are darling x infinity.
I’ll admit that I’m not cut out to be a roller derby princess but my inner goddess TOTALLY WISHES I WERE. Oh and I am SERIOUSLY COVETING THE TIGHTS. You look fabulous!
AH! This picture is perfect. I love the wink. And good on ya for being such a bad ass Roller Girl!
It’s official; I think you’re awesome!
I wasn’t sure you could get any cooler, but you are!
Go derby!
very pretty, nicole and for what it’s worth, you look mighty tough!

Love this shot! It’s so fun! I just had to leave my Florida team (Emerald Coast Roller Derby) to move out of state. I miss it so much!

I had no idea you played derby too! Excellent! It is so much fun :)
