Day 1 - Traveling

Well, I never went to sleep the night before...bad move. I fell asleep on Alyssa in the car, several times...sorry! We took a nice detour right before getting on the GW Bridge, stupid MapQuest. I was so tired that when I arrived at the gate to wait to board the plane, I fell asleep. When I sat down, the chairs all around me were filled! There were only one or two seats still open in the waiting area. I later woke up to a text message from Alyssa, reminding me to wake up so I don't miss out on boarding my flight. I fell asleep while texting her back. I fell asleep once more for a few minutes and when I woke up, there were only three people sitting in the chairs around me...everyone was already on the plane! Yikes!

For some reason I was assigned two different seats, 15F and 21F. I didn't know which seat to take, so I took 21F, which was supposed to be a window seat, but some silly woman sat down before I could get in, so instead of getting up to give me my seat, she slid over and sat in my seat. So, I was stuck in the middle seat, squished between to weirdos. Yay for close contact...NOT! Luckily, I slept for most of the flight (I don't even remember taking off). They played "August Rush" during the flight and I miraculously woke up just in time for the movie, so I watched it, then went back to sleep.

We went into Fort Collins today to walk around and to try to find me padded shorts...no dice. Hopefully we'll find something at the mountain. We stopped at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, the bestest place in the world, to pick up some super stellar caramel apples. They have all different kinds of crazy flavors...YUMMM!!!!!!!!! There's one in the Palisades Mall, I suggest we go sometime.

That's about it for today. I have to wake up at the butt crack of dawn tomorrow to head to the mountain for practice. It's supposed to snow, so hopefully the roads won't be too bad. We'll probably hit a lot of traffic since there are roughly 2,000 competitors heading to Copper Mountain for Nationals...great!

Peace out girl/boy scouts.
