So when we met up with everyone at the go kart place, we had our Sonic cups, which led someone to ask if we'd noticed the sonic boom earlier in the week. Which, we had, but didn't know that's what it was. I heard the windows and doors shaking loudly and assumed earthquake, except the ground wasn't moving. I figured it must have been a big truck going by or something and dismissed the thought. Turns out it was some mystery sonic boom that no one can explain and the sound traveled up through California and possibly even to New York before dissipating. The #1 theory (on the news sites) at the moment is aliens, but it could possibly have been a meteor. Either way, it's totally weird.
There were no meteors or aliens on the race track, but lots of stars indeed! I didn't race, since I have just recently regained the ability to turn my head (hooray for small victories!) and didn't want to fudge it up again. Turns out, I was exactly right to stay on the sidelines, being the photographer. Everyone was doing high-speed skid-outs and slamming into the walls - and each other - the whole race and Ryan came away with an aching back and bruised ribs. Go kart racing ain't for the faint of heart, honey!
