0:24.2	going? Good. Good. You got back from Orlando last night. So today's an off day and then
0:29.4	let's get back to it. Nice. And you're speaking to us on your off day. I'm sorry, but thank
0:34.7	you. No problem. What do you do on an off day usually? Today is just kind of cleaning up.
0:44.0	We leave for like a pretty long trip on Friday. We play at North Carolina and so we're staying
0:49.6	and then we play D.C. the next weekend. So just trying to prepare for that. I also have
