Rockstar

So.....my nutrition consultant, who rocks and I respect tremendously (see Jared Hansen's blog) informed me that sometimes its good to drink caffeine when your body has hit a plateau. I think that is what he said-regardless of the fact, he told me to try a Rockstar energy drink this week. So Friday, I run to the market (not the grocery store-thats for all of you who make fun of me for saying the 'Market' instead of the 'grocery store') on my break (yes- I am still working on Fridays when I am suppose to have them off), I buy the Carb-free Rockstar and decide to save it until later in the evening when I am going dancing and plan on being up late.......BAD IDEA! Little did I know that my body does not do well with that much caffeine. The sad thing is that I only drank about 8 ounces. I have been drinking very little caffeine, if any in the past several months. It was the most unique experience of my life. Luckily those who I was with the most that evening, knew me and knew that I had not been drinking. I am sure that did not know me probably thought that I was drunk. was sweaty and red faced.....NOT fun. My friends more or less were able to make fun of me a lot, which I welcome at any time the opportunity presents itself. It was quite the experience. Never again will I drink one of those. Here are soem pictures of Nanda, Lindsey and I at the Taylorsville dance. Good Friends + Camera = Good Times!

Nanda, Lindsey and I rockin it at the Dance.....



Who of you have lived in the great state of Utah and have been able to experience Lagoon? If you have, I am SO sorry. Lagoon is on my list, well no longer on my list, of things to do before I move out of Utah. I went this weekend and man was it an interesting experience. One of the roller coasters was pretty scary. I think its name is Wicked. Regardless of the name, you go straight up and turn sharply and then go straight down.....I used some choice words on that ride. I am just glad that I am still alive. If you have never been to Lagoon, don't go. We got there at about 1pm and left at 5 and went on all the rides worth going on. I remember doing that at Knotts(when I worked there and got in free) but it was in the middle of the week during the off season with no lines, Knotts isnt too exciting, but it is definitely better than Lagoon.



Nanda, Patrick and I at Lagoon.

Sounds like you have a had a lot of fun. I am not too excited for roller coaster rides. But they are fun.
