Yes. I forgot to update the other day after I got home. XD

The race was freakin' awesome. We sat right down in front, and we could see basically everything. I bought sunglasses, a visor-hat-type-thing(which I got autographed by Kenny Wallace, who ended up winning, and Earl Baltes, the old owner of Eldora Speedway), binoculars, a program, two pictures of Kenny Wallace that I had autographed...And God knows what else. o_O; Kevin Harvick didn't do that well. He got wrecked during his heat, though it wasn't his fault. Someone wrecked in front of him, and he spun out to avoid the wreck. They let him get a backup car out, but man, that one SUCKED. ><;

During qualifying, I had mom's wrist watch, and I was using it as a stopwatch to time the cars, and then I would compare it to the official time. The closet I got was 4 thousandths of a second. The official time, which was done digitally, was 17.004 seconds. I had, on the wrist watch, 17.000 seconds. It was hella cool. I think the farthest off that I ever was to one of the times was 2 tenths of a second or something like that.

I tried the NASCAR simulator, and let me tell you, I SUCKED at it. XD I finished last in both of my races, and spun out God knows how many times. But then again, if other people would figure out how to watch where they're going and not slam right into me while I'm trying to get straightened back up...Urgh.

Anyways. Spent the weekend at Mom's. Wasn't too bad. She's got an assistant manager now, which means she should start getting more weekends off. Yay.

Jayme's going to VBS (Vacation Bible School for all you non-church peoples. oO; ) this week, so I have to walk her up and back every day, except Wednesday, because there's gonna be a funeral at the church that day. oO; Her birthday's the 16th, so I'm not sure what we're going to do that day. She's turning 8. It's kind of hard to believe...Andrew, her little brother, turned a year old on the 5th. They're growing up so quickly. Andrew's walking now, and Maddison is talking more, at least she was when I saw her last. They're both such sweet little kids. Jayme is too, I guess, to an extent, but she can be a huge brat too. But I guess everyone can be.

Well, I think this is long enough for now, so I think Ima get. XD Ja ne~
