Massive update!

Ref Camp was fantastic--met a lot of great people, learned a lot of new tricks, had time to practice old ones, stayed up too late, ran around a lot, drank more water than I thought a body could hold, navigated three airports successfully on my own, and in general had a wonderful experience. If there are any referees out there reading this, and you have the chance, go to camp! You won't regret it.

Look at the focus!

Quick summary of the days & posts I missed:

Sunday:
Slept very little, flew successfully, met cool roommates (four whole women referees! four!), was tapped to run a center the very first night. Succeeded.
Monday:
Learned a new speed drill! Nursed sore quads all afternoon.

Tuesday:
Had party in room. Experienced first RA party bust. Watched roommate crowned a champion, and laughed at lots of referee in-jokes. (watching a referee try to referee pong? priceless.)

Wednesday:
Passed fitness test! Nursed quads again.

Thursday:
Nine hours in airports across the country. Spent time reading, munching smuggled fruit, staring out windows, and conversing in rusty Spanish. Also E.'s twenty-first birthday party back in town.

Friday:
Woke up, trained, showered, watched new Harry Potter, tried new recipe, ogled Ryan Reynolds. Ate staggering amount of popcorn. And updated blog!
