Tevis Trauma (I mean Drama....) Update

I GET TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!

Many thanks to my co-worker and friend who stepped up to the plate to help me out, bought me lunch, and said "we are going to do this".

I was more scattered brained than a twitter bird, based on 2 hours of sleep in 48 and a lack of any thing that could be construed as food. But we did it and I can go.

Off to take a nap, nurse my headache, and pack my stuff (the horse stuff got packed last night). I'm sleeping in tomorrow and will end up in Auburn "whenever". I only have a 2 hour drive, so even if I don't leave until 8 or 9am it will be just fine.

With this much pre-drama the ride itself should go off without a hitch right?

Thanks everyone for your support.

  2. They say a bad dress rehearsal means it will be a good show so I think all this drama will work in your favor in the end. GOOD LUCK!!!! I can't wait to check in for updates on you.
