It's a gymnastics meet today, what will you be participating in: floor routine, bars, rings, vault, balance beam? What do you think the judges will give you for a score?

The only things I could handle when we did gymnastics in PE was the vault--which I LOVED!--and the balance beam. I'd get a horrible score, though, especially nowadays. My body is emphatically NOT designed for gymnastics. The last time I tried a somersault--I was in high school--I ended up on the floor holding my neck for 15 minutes until the pain stopped. Had anyone else been home at the time, I would probably have had to go to the hospital.

My husband's car experienced a flat tire this morning in rush hour traffic, on the Interstate of course. When he got the spare tire the battery pooped out. ARGH!!! He now has one full year of AAA service .... When was the last time your car broke down?

I can't even think of a time. The only call I've made to AAA was when I locked my keys in the truck about 4 years ago. Sparky and I sat inside K-Mart for over an hour, and finally Beast drove up from his office (30 minutes away), arriving at the same time as the tow truck...which came from a mile up the road. Couldn't blame them: they had just gotten the call 20 minutes earlier and the truck was out doing something else.
I have a key-holder on the truck now for times when I do this, and I've probably used it 6 or 8 times since then. I'm really pathetic about this issue.
But anyway, no breakdowns. Knock wood.
