On The Road Again Jiggity Jig

Just over a week ago we made our way down to Wright State in Ohio. That’s an 8-hour bus ride - talk about uncomfortable. We all slept for a good amount of time before Susie woke us all up to go eat at an Applebee’s. A bunch of us did the 2 for $20 deal they have there. If you do not know about this deal, you should - it’s basically amazing. You get your choice of two entrées and one appetizer for only 20 dollars!!! Talk about sweet.

Since most of us did this deal, we all pretended to be on dates with each other. This is normal behavior. And if you know our team, you know that A) we have no manners (aka talking with food in our mouths causing us to spit food across the table) and B) that most of us suffer from voice immodulation (aka screaming aka using an outside voice when we should be using an inside voice) when we are together. There were a couple people in the restaurant that didn’t look like they cared much for our disease and basically applauded when we left the building.

We got back on the bus and played a round of charades. For this game we made teams the upper class versus the younger class. To put it blatantly, the younger class was just…bad. They got a couple of words, but we basically kicked their butts. Aside from a couple of times that our bus driver almost got into an accident, we arrived safely at the Fairfield Inn in Ohio where we got greeted with warm chocolate chip cookies that were gone in about two seconds because we are fat.

We then proceeded to our rooms to get changed into clothes for our pool workout. We all got in the pool and cranked out that workout like it was nobody’s business. Then we got the heck out of that contaminated pool that gave many people rashes.

The next day we had some study time and then made our way to Wright State where we did amazing and beat them in three. We tried to stick around to see some of the Disney characters (they were hosting the Disney on Ice musical that weekend). The only people lucky enough to see any characters were the coaches. They saw Minnie. and Mickey. So ticked that we missed out.

(Editor’s note – the authors used another word for ticked and the fuddy-duddy editor decided it wasn’t for our younger audience. Not sure why other things are let to slide and that was not, but the editor gets the final say and he’s just in one of those do-good moods tonight.)

Saturday morning we drove to Butler University. We ate somewhere and it was yummy. It was something like Moe and Larry’s ... or it might not have been named after the stooges … either way, it was pretty delicious. We all made our way back to the bus and Morgan told Lindsey that Sam and Mary Beth had stopped into a store so they could use the restroom quick. Lindsey forgot and told the bus driver that we were ‘good to go’ and as we started driving we all looked out the windows and saw both Sam and Mary Beth sprinting after the bus, wailing their arms. Too bad the bus is basically sound proof so we couldn’t hear them yelling. We did end up stopping for them though.

When we got to Butler there were many, many people there tailgating for their football game since it was homecoming weekend. People must have been drunk because most sober people don’t just walk into a ginormous bus going five miles per hour. Anyway, we ended up beating Butler in three games, got the heck out of there and got home.

12-0!
