Ah, last weekend was quite the adventure, let me tell you. It all kicked off on a sunny Saturday, the kind that screams “road trip!” My mission? To rendezvous with my buddy Ed Smith at his mom’s place in Wappingers Falls, NY. But, plot twist, I had to play the waiting game for my new bed to arrive first. Yes, folks, I’ve finally upgraded my sleeping arrangements – it was a big day.
So, once my royal sleep chariot was securely delivered, I zoomed off to meet Ed. But here’s where the sitcom-worthy twist comes in: Ed hadn’t even left Plattsburgh until 7 PM! There I was, making chit-chat with Ed’s family for a solid three hours. Surprisingly, it wasn’t a total snooze fest.
Fast forward to the next day, and we’re off to the Lime Rock Raceway in CT, engines roaring and spirits high. I hit the ground running, or driving, in this case. But then, the plot thickens as the scorching weather decides to play the main villain in my racing saga. With just one lap to go, I was pulled off the track, a twist of fate worthy of a daytime drama. And would you believe it? I checked the results online, and they still threw me a bone with a fifth-place finish. Talk about a silver lining!
But wait, there’s more. I almost took an unscheduled nap in a grocery store afterwards, courtesy of my near-faint escapade. Fast forward to midweek, and I’m still feeling the aftermath of that epic day and a 56-mile bike ride with the local cycling gang. Work’s been a mixed bag – mostly me twiddling my thumbs, waiting for someone, anyone, to get their act together.
So, yeah, that’s the lowdown on my high-speed weekend and the slow-motion work week that followed. It’s been a ride, folks, quite literally.
