Better!

Ah, the day after being really sick is a great reminder of how great feeling normal is. I've been pounding dayquil, sudafed, airborne, and ibuprofen and things are finally feeling normal.

We've had a good few days of practice; the boat is really coming together and we're starting to see some speed. Today we did minute on/minute off with the senior team, and were able to hang with them throughout the workout and actually steal a few pieces, which was exciting. Tonight we're going back to Lake Mercer, which I don't really like as much as Carnegie, but whatever. Had a nice morning of feeling rejuvenated. Biked in the hotel fitness room for a bit, then cooled off in the pool which felt really nice under the 90 degree sun. Also buzzed my head today, not extremely short but not long. Spose I should take a picture of that and post it... maybe later. Getting into the Business Center has been annoying, so I've been on the computer less. I think that's about all I have to update... things are pretty quiet out here. Caroline's out in rainy Hawaii, Mom's finishing up a tour of Southern Cali, Coop's coaching and Dad's selling houses on the Island... miss them all very much and am trying to figure out the best way to spend time at home and in Woodside and make it all work when I get back. Should be an exciting next couple weeks, traveling around some more and then returning home. I was thinking last night that I spent 9 days in hotels for IRAs, 3 days in a hotel in Hanover, will have spent 14 days in this hotel, and will have 10 days in Scotland... that's 36 days of hotel living this summer. Craziness. I want to settle down soon!

Music:
Yesterday while I was sick I listened to Devotchka a lot, the guy who did the Little Miss Sunshine soundtrack. He's awesome, and it was good nappy/sick music. Top track from Sunshine: "How It Ends." Yum.

Off to do more nothing and more rowing. It's a good life.
