I DIDN'T GET SICK!!
I can't believe it!!! I was so completely convinced that I was going to vomit.. and then somehow I didn't!!!!! We did 7.3 g's and a bunch of 5 g's and some upside down stuff and somehow, somehow I didn't get sick and I didn't pass out. Although, I have to be honest-- I came within a millisecond of passing out on the 7g's. The world got grey in an instant!! I could only see the tinest speck in front of me ((you get tunnel vision)) and I just gave it my all to bear down and keep the blood from rushing out of my brain. We only did it for a second-- the real deal lasts for 20. But at least I can say I got there.
Much more tomorrow.. with pictures. I'm going out to celebrate (should make getting up at 3am tomorrow fun) but I can NOT sleep. I am WIRED right now...... :-)

Way to go Steph!! You looked great. You better have it on tape that you didnt hurl cuz I have a feeling that your co-workers (bless their pointy little hearts) have it out for you and were counting on you barfing hee hee hee. Will tape the morning news so I can see more of your broadcast.I misread the last post as I thought you were the one who hurled all over the plane but you hadnt flown yet. I looked for you to fly overhead but guess they didnt take you clear to Albany!Hope you got some sleep but as wired as you had to be..I doubt you did. Bet your husband was proud of you. I'll just bet he was banking on you getting sick too!
