weekend stuff
friday:
Volunteered for the Ragnar Relay (186 mile relay race, from SF to Calistoga. CRAZY). My cousins were running it (team Loose Laces Sink Paces), and they needed volunteers to work one of the exchanges, so Jacqueline, Albert, Jay, and I volunteered. Apparently we saved their team (of 12) about $100 a person by volunteering (and all we got from them was a team jersey, which was maybe $20, just sayin').
Our shift was at exchange point 16 from 845pm-130am. It was actually pretty fun. Jay and I were a couple hundred feet before the checkpoint and announce the upcoming runners through a walkie-talkie, and Jacqueline & Albert were at the checkpoint recording the runners times and letting the other teams know if their runner was coming or not. It was kinda cold but not too bad, and it was hella dark. It tough just walking in the dark let alone running in the dark. It was cool though, cause we didn't have to stay till the very end. The last runner came through around 1240am.saturday:
Met up with the team at the finish line in Calistoga. I took pics, but with my slr, and I probably use up that roll for maybe another month. Right after the race, we went to Cliff's in Brentwood to watch the Mayweather/Ortiz fight. Mayweather is hella whack.sunday:
Shann bought one-piece headlights for his car, so we installed them.
(we forgot to take the "before pic" before taking off the front bumper)
Looks pretty clean, especially the black housing on the white car.
