Derek and I did this a couple weeks ago. He planned it all out and wouldn't tell me where we were going. He took me to a place called Fast Lap off of Polaris. Now this is no ordinary Go Kart racing track. You have to watch a safety video, wear a racing uniform, helmet, and gloves. Derek said I looked like the little boy from a Christmas Story :( Rude!
Anyway each race lasts about 10 minutes and you race who ever is there. For three of our four races Derek and I raced each other, but for one race another guy was there. My best time was 32.09 seconds, and Derek's was 29.95 seconds. It was really fun, but because I suck at it one tends to get tired of not knowing how to do it. Derek said he could have stayed all night, and wants to take his brother when he is in town again. Then we went to one of our favorite sushi restaurants, Sushi Twister.
We also had to wear a neck brace!
Derek tried on three different uniforms and each one had a wardrobe malfunction problem, so he opted out, but I didn't want to get oil on my jeans so I wore one.
Me in my lucky 13 racer!
You can kinda see the track.
It is my turn to plan an evening out...any suggestions? I only have him home for two more weeks! :(
If they leave out shoes or toys they owe push-ups or squat thrusters (as Kaia calls them) Sometimes they stand back to back and have to hold their arms out to the side or above their head for a prescribed amount of time. Sometimes they think it is fun (maybe cause it is new), but mostly they whine :) But I tell ya, we have had far fewer incidences of towels being left unhung or shoes and toys left out!
