So this saturday, I got up at 6 in the morning so I could be rowing at 7. The only problem is that our coxswain was half an hour late. Her mom dropped her off at the lake. She said she was really sorry, and that she had had a late night (going to bed at 5 in the morning to be exact). She said she was still drunk from the night before, after having quite a few drinks with her friends. And from the way she coxed the boat, she still clearly was. The smell of vodka on her breath was still strong. We joked weather she could get in trouble for coxing while drunk. But all was good, and we had a good row, even if I got quite sunburned in the process.
I spent most of last night and this morning figuring out how to replace the battery in the cox box (the thing that amplifys the coxsain's voice). I went to wal mart and found some RC car batteries, which were perfect (600 Mah NI-CD's). After a lot of soldering, the cox box is working again. Yay for saving a few hundred bucks.
