Windy Racing: NASCAR and the Weather

Wow, it's windy outside! Looking out at the patio, things have been blown around quite a bit. It could be a lot worse though so I'm okay with it. I fed the dogs early and let them back inside the house. They have little desire to be outside in this weather.

Just turned on Speed Channel to watch the Gatorade Duels that set the field for the Daytona 500 on Sunday. The thing barely started and Ryan Newman just went for a spin. I imagine we'll see more of that before the day is over. Oh my, looks like Newman's team owner and fellow driver, Tony Stewart, may have spun Newman out. Oops!

I have a really nice and comfy chair in my living room that I like a lot but you know what I really miss? The truth is that it's leather furniture, or more specifically, a nice, comfy leather sofa. In high school, a friend of mine had one and it was just sheer heaven to sink down into that thing and take a nap. Unfortunately, I don't really have room for that kind of sofa, but I do keep dreaming about it.

More later!
