Thanks techskater.
I always enjoy a good nap. I just don't often get to have one.

As I try to get things at work wrapped up enough to leave......

I wouldn't complain, since I'm used to having to skate at 6:30am here at home. . . but my body will think it's 3:30am due to the time difference. Yes, it's true, I always have to toss in one big WHINE about the Pacific Coast skater disadvantage!

I guess it's a good thing then that I went to all those morning FS sessions to get used to skating in the mornings then, huh? (Thankfully, my event is 1:20pm and 4:20pm, so it's 10:20am and 1:20pm our time. I should be awake by then!!!

Flo just called me because she left her club skating jacket at the Enterprise rent-a-car desk in Albany. If anyone is flying into Albany and can pick up flo's club jacket, PM me and I can put you in touch w/her. Thanks!

Thanks Mika! And thanks to anyone who may be renting from enterprise. I'm here and skated a session and have already caught up with friends from years past.

Safe travels everyone.

It was a spectacular drive up today, and, yes, those last three hours are amazing! Plenty of sun and plenty of snow still up here, too! Dress warm and see you tomorrow!

Can't wait to meet all of you for the first time. I'll be in on Thursday for Fridays ladies III artistic groupA. Moonlight Sonata is my music.

I will be with my husband and son (9yr old). Me and the hubby are under 5'4" and he kind of looks like a chubby Scott Hamilton!! I'm not chubby lol and have been told in the past I look like Linda Hamilton (terminator chick)and we all have blue eyes and dark hair (Hub has well.. like none). Sooo, if any of you recognize us Pleeeassseee say hello!! The hubby has vowed to drink wine all weekend too. So, if you see a guy staggering and fitting the above description that's my husband!

Safe trip to all.
