Race Widow

Definition: A woman whose husband is often away pursuing racing, specifically Indy Car.

Well, racing season is upon us, and our house is all abuzz. I know that the racing season has begun when:
  • Ryan is planning our weekends around the races on TV
  • The main topic of discussion at the dinner table with the Girls is who is going to win the next race (usually the answer is Danica or Helios)
  • Ryan is packing his travel bag on Tuesday night
  • There is no more room on our DVR because now all of the races are recorded in HD
  • Ryan disappears on the weekends to remote places and comes back sunburned
    (He may just be frolicking in Mexico, but somehow he gets the Indy Racing League to deposit a paycheck in our bank account a few days after he returns.)
Seriously, though...IRL racing season has begun, and this one should be a doozy! For those of you that have never given racing a chance...it is more than just a bunch of cars going around a track. Get out there and check it out. It better be for me to become a widow for the next few months. :-)

If you want to find out more, call 1-800-THE-CASSELLS, and Abi and Lucy can give you all the information you want to know...more than any 5 year old or 2 year old should know. Meanwhile...if you don't hear from us, we'll be at The Race Track (i.e. Indianapolis Motor Speedway). Ahh...the month of May and the Indianapolis 500.
