I made a new friend this past weekend in Benicia. We’ll call her LC for now because she doesn’t know that I’m telling this story.

I went to registration to get my numbers, LC was in charge so I tell her I’m prereg and hand her my licence. She asks me if I’m Liz(yes I am) and then she tells me how she saw me at another race and liked my kit(awesome I know). Then she drops the bomb.

She said she couldn’t remember the name of the team(Vanderkitten) so she started calling us the “Thunderpussies” instead.

I peed myself laughing. I’ve heard all kinds of variations of Vanderkitten but this was by far the greatest!

So right away I liked LC. She’s good fun. :)

I told Dave and Mark about this and they both enjoyed it thoroughly, in fact I think Dave went home and trademarked the name…

Benicia went pretty well, got 2nd, Martina P. won. She is friggin’ fast… I need a coach. Anyhooooo, I’m pretty OK with how the year has gone and it’s only going to get better next!

On a side note, you may be wondering why there is a picture of Diamond Dave on the blog today.

Basically, I’ve been on a Van Halen kick since waking up 4 days ago and realizing that my hair looked like David Lee Roth’s hair back in his “Panama” days. ZEXXXY!!! Sammy and his Cabo Wabo tequila can shove it, they ain’t got nothing on DLR!

Tata for now,

Liz Lee Roth!
