Ice Cream and Laguna Beach at 20,000 Feet
Uncategorized July 26th, 2005
Yesterday was a pretty busy day. I went to the grocery store twice. The first time I went I bought salad. The second time I bought ice cream. I did not want to be too healthy, I guess, plus I burned enough calories just going to the grocery store a second time that I deserved ice cream.
After the ice cream purchase, Edy’s Light Rocky Road, which was a very good choice I sat on the couch and watched the season premiere of Laguna Beach on MTV. Not only was I eating ice cream and watching Laguna Beach I was doing so while being at a simulated altitude fo 20,000 feet. How many people get to say that they have ate ice cream and watched cable television at that altitude, not too many. Maybe I am the first?
Earlier in the day I met with the Altolab guy, Andrew, and his daughther at Team Sports and they hooked me up with their product. It is a thing you breath through and it simulates altitude without having to go there or sleep in a tent. Here is a picture of me making a summit attempt. I was amazed how warm and calm the weather was at such an altitude!
………and no, it is not a bong. Very funny.
The episode of Laguna Beach was a pretty good one even though I was dizzy for half of it. I even got Billy Jones hooked on the show.
Today I rode my bike with Frank and felt like crap. I have a major sore throat going and we got rained on. I am sick of being wet already.
Off to the Brewer’s game. I am not really a fan of baseball but the blue super rope they sell there is worth the trip. I also like the hot dog race and I think italian sausage is going to win tonight. I heard he has been logging quite a few hours lately compared to polish sausage.
