Bubbles



Yes, we did this. They are the bubbles from the State Fair. Mountain Man, 2 of his grown colleagues, and myself all attempted to run, walk, handstand, and knock eachother around in these bubbles at the fair. It was a blast- and a workout! Let's just say Thomas's buddy didn't feel so great after this activity. He ate fried cheesecake and drank milk right before we went on our little escapade. It certainly halted any craving for fried deliciousness after getting out of the humid air pocket.
The State Fair was a lot of fun, we mainly walked around and devoured taboo things for your diet. My rationale is it is only once a year I get to eat State Fair corndogs and funnel cakes- so back off! And this year we tried a Red Velvet funnel cake with cream cheese frosting- HEAVENLY.
I was sad about Kansas State's defeat this weekend, but then again, they played a very good team with a chip on their shoulder. You always have to watch out for the underdogs! Also- their volleyball team went 3-0 in Las Vegas, so that should be recognized as a positive upside!
The volleyball team I'm coaching with didn't win this weekend either. It was a very good match though, we took the team to five sets after we lost the first two in a row- also being an away game. I was hoping for the Weber State-like comeback, but the opposing team didn't deflate after set 3 like Weber St. did. We also didn't have a server that rallied 6 points in a row for us to take the lead. Anyways, that was my favorite comeback of all time in college volleyball.
If any of you have a State Fair coming up, I highly recommend the corndogs and funnel cakes, and only go in the bubbles if you are with another adult so you don't look like a fool too much, and no fried foods right before!
