A good enough reason to go to Jersey

thebratqueenYesterday saw me flying down I-95 like a bat out of hell as I tried to make it to Spring Caravan in time to see my teacher perform. In my defense I left with plenty of time had traffic been fine. However New York had some bike thing going and the Yankees had a thing and the GWB hates my breathing guts.
So instead of a nice, easy drive it was a drive of oh so happy to ignore the speed limit proportions as I kept one eye on the road and the other on the GPS I borrowed from my dad which let me know that sure enough, second by second, I was getting close to a good arrival time. It was like The Amazing Race! Only without a partner! Or Phil! DO NOT GIVE UP IT COULD BE A NON-ELIMINATION ROUND!!!
Speaking of which I also really had to pee, but I still did not stop!
I finally managed to get there at 1:59pm, leapt from the car, ran to the event center, missed the place to buy tickets, went back to pay, got checked in, and made it to the audience just as my teacher showed up on the stage. I WAS LIKE A NINJA! A NINJA THAT WATCHES BELLYDANCERS IN NEW JERSEY!
Afterwhich there was shopping, and the buying of many pretty things, and then heading home to be caught in even more traffic and then there was curling up on the couch and being a vegetable for the rest of the evening.
So that was my Sunday.
