Lent

Not that I am religious or anything but I have decided once again to participate in Lent. Three years ago I gave up a 3 diet cokes a day habit and have hardly touched the stuff since. It was surprisingly hard but well worth it.

Here goes nothing

I vow, for 40 days and 40 nights, to give up....


Wish me luck!

Road Trip!

This post is a little bit delayed and since then I have managed to get myself into all sorts of non-sub-zero trouble but I'll save those juicy details for those near and dear to me ...

Tahoe was awesome! H was a great boarder for a newbie and the roomie has made vast improvements since the wrist damages last year. H learned fast and was pretty impressive minus the collision we had resulting in a scary and large bruise and bump on my leg that hasn't quite gone away. Adds character, right? We re-met the famous Hard Rock Bartender who, after some memory jogging, remembered us and gave us ridiculously strong (free) rum runners. We also got to hang out with B and half his family (brother and cousin) the second night which was a treat. Oh, those boys. The icing on the cake was the great deal I scored on a hotel. For the same cost as the shitty hotel we stayed in last year, I found an awesome suite at Harvey's Resort & Casino which was fabulous. We even got to go hot tubing which could be a story in itself.









I must say this trip was quite different from the last trip in many ways, but still a lot of fun! I hope to go back up there at least a few more times before the snow melts and make some more snow angels.

First weekend in March ... watch out!

TA-HOE

I'm off to Tahoe tomorrow for a much needed weekend of R&R, snowboarding and probably a little debauchery. Watch out for the photos ...
