In preparation for the
Seattle Idiotarod, I've truly gotten into the idiotic spirit.
While welding up our chariot of the frozen aisle, I forgot that twice the material thickness = twice the power from the welder = twice the UV radiation. I wasn't wearing a longsleeve shirt (I get away with that all the time welding thin stuff), and after 10 minutes, I had a great start on this summer's farmer's tan!
Pain is a tax on stupidity.
I'll post photos of our chariot after the race, for now it's too top-secret to share. Let's just say it's going to be awesome, beautiful, and chaotic!
I had so much fun dragging the cart back to school! We went prospecting in the alley between the Ave and Brooklyn, and as usual there were carts everywhere. Ours had a cupholder, which was the deal-maker.
I rode it back to school solo-style, with a little help from Langston. But for the most part I just rode my bike and held onto the cart at the front, and it was awesome! Bouncing and sliding and hauling ass. You shoulda seen it!
It will be even cooler on Saturday when we have our entire team involved, in the bloodbath that will be SEATLE IDIOTAROD 2006!!!!!
