SNOW DANCE

I love snowboarding. I adore it. I even plan my Spring semester of university around the boarding season. (The past 3 years I have taken a snowboarding class here at my Uni, but decided not to this year)  Even my job knows that I board as much as possible*.

The last two weeks at the local resort have been awful. Well, I guess it depends on how you look at it. There is a nasty inversion** here in the valley I live in, and the weather at the resort has been around 40 degrees Fahrenheit. G.L.O.R.I.O.U.S temperature = shitty snow.  It's spring conditions up there. Slushy snow, rocks, tree stumps.  I skipped going boarding yesterday, and I'm getting super excited for this storm. It's FINALLY snowing here. And I have to refrain from doing a dance at work (ok, so I did my dance earlier when no one was here yet)

The only thing that does freak me out about the snow, is I have to pass through a delightful canyon where the weather is nastier than the valley to get to my physiology class.  Meh, I have a 4runner, and I don't drive like a moron in the snow. It'll be fine. :)


(Oh my heck, I had the craziest dream last night. Complete with Alec Baldwin (I <3 30 Rock), giant robots that appeared from nowhere, and being in the top half of a high riser that was ripped in half and carried away by a robot. Freaked me the F* out Oh, and there was a random pregnant lady that kept having to pee. That was kind of weird....)

*I asked my manager not to schedule me to work on Mondays, because I was planning on going to the mountain. In the Spring, if we have worked a certain seminar in August, we get to pick a shift that we want to work, instead of being randomly assigned. Instead of picking a shift, I asked for Mondays off. SCORE!

** I live in a valley that is mostly surrounded by mountains. The bowl shape holds in the icky air, and is only forced out if we have a storm of some kind.
