Notes Music: Carmen wearing red / music starts with bell tolling and snare drum / 3f is lovely / back to this end of the ice for a 3z that she slid off her edge on the landing on / 3l landed right on beat of music / and the music picks up for her flycam that is nice & centered / popped 3s to a double / sideways layback switching to normal then foot to head / music stops and changes to soft & flowey and a little chor / back to this end of the ice for an airy double lutz / inside out spiral starts the seq / 3t2t in almost the same place as both lutzes / 2a turns into 2t / combo spin is ok as music fades to nothing and then picks up with beat that the sparse crwod is clapping to and into her S frtwrk that somehow isn't lively enough for the music -- mind you it is 10am / and into a flycam spin to end the program and she looks completely wiped out / pb 107.60 /

Zamboni break now and I'm off to get some coffee so maybe I'll be a bit more awake and quicker with the next 2 flights. I slept in today and didn't get my usual dose of coffee before I headed to the rink.
