Busy Bobsledder

So, I’ve been willingly kidnapped.  See, the plan this week was to stay home in NJ with my wonderful hubs, enjoy our time together, and work my tail off for school research.  A couple of weeks ago, my friend Ida had said something about bobsledding with her.  She has been training for this very interesting sport for a while now and wanted me to come along for the ride (ha! pun!).  A few weeks ago, when she mentioned me heading to Lake Placid with her to check it out, I thought she was joking.  Apparently not.

So I make the arrangements (ask for permission) to stay home all week to work.  Luckily I had brought all my work home with me, including my laptop.  Then last night, I get a call from Ida around 9PM telling me she’s taking me to Lake Placid with her for a week.  Who am I to argue?

Its been a really long day.  Ida got to my place around 1:30AM, slept for an hour or so and we headed out in the car around 4AM.  Right now, I’m eating the first real food I’ve had all day!  It was just a whirlwind kind of day!  We went down the bobsled 6 times from about the halfway point.  Sorry, no pictures!  But it was a total blast. 

Now, I still have to do that research I promised and I’m running on about 4 hours of sleep (give or take).  Now that I’m fat and happy, I think its time I stretch out my soon-to-be-very-sore back and hit the hay.  I’ll attempt reading some school materials but I can barely keep my eyes open typing this!  Its not likely I will last long…

Good night everyone!  So, if I’m MIA this week, please forgive me.  I had no idea I would be so busy!
