Yesterday, I went to the Wedding Fair with Hotpinkevil! in order to get ideas for the greatest day of Super-Rookie's life. I've never been to one of these before because well, I've never needed to. I wasn't quite sure what I should be expecting, but it was much more intense than I had thought! Those vendors can be relentless! At one point I think someone grabbed my shoulder/arm, and a videographer was quite hostileto HPE. We were ready to leave after 3 hours of wedding bliss...
We had been disappointed to learn months ago that the Wedding Fair was the same day as the Boom Island CX. It's a race that we both highly enjoy, but girls' gotta have priorities! Low and behold we got out in time to catch the A race and S-R was even racing, because he has crashed in the B race. We ended up getting there just as the boys were getting going. I spent a lovely afternoon hanging out with Homme, Smithers, Jim R, Dan Cleary, Ray, and Toddler Smithers (boy needs some pictures Smithers - I couldn't find a good one of him to link). I drank Jim R's beer, DC refilled me, Homme did Bikethrow.com interviews, Smithers heckled the riders, Ray told stories about powdered donut hand-ups, and Toddler Smithers cut off all the blood flow in Homme's fingers while we all yelled at Tuffy to give S-R a bottle. Can't beat that :) I then proceeded to home and passed out on the couch. I think I'm getting old...
Evidence of the day:
Shamelessly stolen from Smithers.
