Back to the Grind

Another 3 weeks of day long lectures start today.  Powertrain design is the first week, then Vehicle Dynamics and then Electronics and Data Acquisition.  The last two might be in reverse order, I'm not sure right now.  I think I'm actually ready to get back to them, though the long relaxing weekend was needed and nice.

The weather when I woke up this morning was "freezing fog".  Now I'm not really sure if the fog was actually freezing, but it was 30F and foggy.  Yesterday I spent watching NFL online after watching the F1 season finale from a pub a few hundred feet away from the Aston Martin site in Newport.  It is kinda cool to say I'm living in the city where the team that won the Constructor's and Driver's Championship are located.  Hopefully they'll have some celebration of some sort, and maybe have the cars out to see!

I was trying to stay up and finish watching the 49ers, but I passed out as the 4th quarter started.  It's probably a good thing, as the game wound up in overtime, and I really really would've been struggling by then!  At least they pulled out the win, as did State.  There is also a chance that I win all 3 of my fantasy football matchups this week, which hasn't happened yet.

We are supposed to have lunch with the Motorsport Advisory Board on Wednesday.  I'm not sure if the whole board will be there, hopefully we'll get some details today.  The list of board members is here.  We had to send CV's to them, so I'm curious to see what the meeting is like.
