What I've Learned Over the Weekend

I learned a lot over this last Friday and Saturday night; here's a rundown:

You can double-check you have the right DVD, double-check you have enough soda stocked, double-check you have enough pizza ordered, and double-check you have given the right directions...but, you must also double-check that your Air Conditioning system hasn't gone on the fritz before you have a dozen people over for a movie night. :-)

When playing Russian Volleyball, you should always wear kneepads if you're going to play for 5 hours! Knees very sore today from logging so much time in the middle while wearing shorts. Ouch!

Never, ever, EVER, eat BBQ'd raw onions off a Veggie-ka-Bob ever again. Blech! (The potatoes were good, though!)

Never skip dinner to play 5 hours of Russian Volleyball and wonder why you're feeling woozy towards the end.

Never think it's OK to go inside and gorge on peanut M&M's, chocolate cookies, chocolate chip cookies, chips and salsa, potato ships, and a root beer to make up for it!

Had great fun this weekend...but today is definitely recovery day. :) Oh, and congrats to Lance Armstrong, 7 Tours in a row...and now a retiree! Excellent work!
