Room Mate From Hell

As I am cleaning up cat pee sprayed on walls and that has been living in corners for over 6 months, I am reflecting on the best quotes from my just moved out room mates:

me : "Holy shit dude, I found a major pee spot in the corner!" (in March mind you)
roomy: "Oh, that's not a big deal it's from October - I just put the blanket over it and he stopped peeing there"

me: "I don't have any sponges since you didn't even leave the kitchen sink sponge after you left"
roomy: "Well what did you expect us to use to clean the bathroom?"

me: "You said you were going to stay until the end of the lease."
roomy: "I don't remember saying that - we can't stay until the end of May because we're going to Cancun"

me: "Let's throw a party before you leave"
roomy: "No - it's too much work"

roomy: "Don't stress, I'm not going to screw you over"

You know what. People suck.

Craziness

Whenever I think life might settle down into a nice tempo - some crazy shit happens. It's not necessarily so bad because it keeps life entertaining and makes for funny stories down the road.

tele turns

I'm pretty sure I linked a few tele turns today! I haven't had the skis out in quite some time so this is very good :). I am hoping to get out again for the next two days to get some muscle memory in place. Wish me luck!

I'm Back!

I'm back! I have been terribly sick and I finally feel better. I feel like I have a new lease on life. Perhaps that's because I felt like I was going to die last week, but that's no matter now. I feel FANTASTIC! I have energy! I'm not allowed to run yet, but you better believe as soon as I can I will run and run and run and run and run. I'm so ready to move (typed as I suck on an inhaler :P).

My goal for the week is to eek out a tiny bit of romance this weekend. Wish me luck!

Sloppy Champagne

I went to Steamboat Springs this past weekend for a snowboarding trip. There were 8 of us and we were stoked to try out some of their "champagne" powder. Well, lady luck was not with us. It was raining when we got there Friday night. It also rained Saturday night. Sunday morning it was 32 degrees at 8am. We decided to head to Summit county instead, and got better powder at Keystone. This may be lost on folks not familiar with normal Colorado ski conditions, but this is a very unlikely scenario. We still had a great time, but it was a bit of a bummer that the snow was all heavy and stuff. At least there was some new snow - it was much needed after a week of nothing. Plus Keystone is finally ridable! This is very good news :).

The Sickness

Yup. I got the sickness. A nasty head cold that probably went sinus infection. It's been almost 3 weeks but it's clearing up. I probably didn't help the cause since I went snowboarding 5 times in there. And running. And trying out my new bike trainer. And belly dance class. And yoga. Hmmmm. I think the only thing in there that was helpful was the yoga. I guess I'm just determined to not miss out on anything.

Snow Bender

Happy New Year!

I'm coming off a two-three week long snow and boy bender. I now have 19 days and a snowshoe in and it's looking like I have found a boyfriend. It was a fabulous end to 2008 and great start to 2009.

I noticed that I don't really have any New Years resolutions. I am doing so much stuff right now that there's no room to shove any more goals in there and stay sane. I think that means I'm doing it right :).
