Great timing for new gear

Today at one of our practices, one of our athletes called me a "fashionista." Hahahahaha! This is beyond laughable. My idea of "fashion" would be to wear a pair of baggie khaki pants, a long-sleeve shirt underneath a short-sleeve Marist Track T-shirt. And of course, a hat with the pencil propped in the side of the hat. Fashion. Sure.

Well today, my "fashion sense" was lauded with the extremely well-timed introduction of Team Winter Hats. I had ordered these back in mid-December -- each athlete gets to choose a red one or a gray one. They just have the fox head logo on the front of a polyester Nike hat. Simple stuff. Of course, with the wind chill plummeting into the single digits in the afternoon and below zero at other times, the winter hats' arrival was serendipitous indeed. They look good. Fashion sense? More like common sense. Whatever. Everybody's happy, and everybody's ears are warm.

Off to Boston for the Terrier Invitational for the weekend. Will post updates from the road.
