Big Time Swimmers in my Hometown
I don’t think it really gets any better than this.

Usually, we bitch and moan about how expensive swim trips are for us and how we can never afford them. Not the case, this weekend. Well, at least for me! A crapload of the National Team will be in my hometown for the Toyota Grand Prix at the Ohio State University. Perfect!
Not only do I have no travel expenses, but also not lodging issues either. Because of my media credentials I don’t have to pay for tickets. And the cherry on top, is that my dad works at the Ohio State hospital and I’m ganking his parking pass for the weekend, so I won’t have to pay for that, either!
The only negative for this meet — yes, I was able to find one — was that my Swim Aids posse will not be with me. I’m on my own this weekend. I will take my alone time and roam the deck. I will try to harass as many of my faves as possible. I will stop by the SPA area and catch-up with Megan “Too-Ghetto-For-You” Romano, as well as NBAC crew, led by our fave coach. And if they’re lucky, I’ll shout-out my CW peeps. I miss those kids.
If you want the goods, I’m going to try and post as much as possible on Swim Stars Live. It’s going to be harder than usual with no help from my girls.
If I have funny stories/pictures/etc., that’ll probably end up here; unless it’s CW-related. All CW anecdotes will be shared on MGoSwim.

I’m leaving for Columbus after work today, but I won’t get there in time for the evening session. I’ll be there both sessions Saturday but I have to leave early Sunday. I have tickets to the Brewers game and have to drive all the way up to Milwaukee.
I’ll be taking pictures from somewhere in the stands. My lens will probably be pointed toward Longhorns.
Hope you weren’t hoping to see Crockah. A ton of school work has kept him from competing.
I misheard. No food poisoning, thankfully!
Enjoy my city while you’re here!
This makes me sad!! :’(
