Tennessee vs Kentucky Women’s Volleyball - ESPNU
Took an early flight on Tuesday morning. Am headed to Lexington early to spend the day with my friend Shannon who is also working this event.
On my way to the hotel, she called… she was still in Charlotte. She was sick and not coming. I was so bummed :(
But, now I had a day to myself! What to do??
It was a beautiful day… considered many options. But ended up just sitting in my hotel room and catching up on emails and stuff. I was way, way behind!
Sounds lame, I know, but was relaxing. No schedule.
I had an early dinner and headed back to the hotel. Watched TV and read the paper. Wow! Vacation day!!!
Later that night, I met a few of the guys downstairs at the bar for a few drinks.
On Wednesday morning, while in the shower, just as I was stepping under the water to rinse the shampoo – there was a loud bang and something hit me in the leg, then rammed into the top of my foot. At the same time, the water stopped flowing over my head and was now like a fire hose, shooting at my knees!
What the hell?
The faucet was the flying projectile. Now what?
I tried putting it back on.
No luck.
So I did the only thing I knew to do… sat down in the tub, in the stream shooting from the wall to finish rinsing and then conditioned and rinsed again!
Had a pretty bad cut on the top of my foot from the flying faucet.
Continued on with getting ready. Began to apply my lotion… wait, that’s not what my lotion smells like!!??
Oh dear God! I was rubbing conditioner all over my body and my hair was full of lotion!
See, I use these fabulous leak-proof containers for my toiletries from The Container Store. They all look alike and I put a letter on the lid. But I must of not been paying attention when I unpacked my bathroom stuff this time…
I have severe allergies and can only use specific products or I am an allergic mess! That’s why I don’t just use the hotel provided items.
Needless to say, my day was not off to a good start! Considering the shower situation, there was no way I was going to attempt to re-wash my hair.
I headed over to the arena. It was another Campus Connection event. So we met our students and began our day!
Another excellent group of future journalists/broadcasters! Thoroughly enjoy working with them all!
After the game, I had drinks and a snack at the hotel bar with my friend Billy. Remember him? He and I worked in China together.
Upon arriving back in my room, I found a notice that my shower had been repaired.
