I spent this weekend snowboarding in Fernie, which was quite the contrast from outdoor frisbee in Vegas. Mauri, Weaze and I borrowed my mom's pimpin' Buick (thanks Mom) and headed down after work on Friday. I was really glad we had my mom's car, especially when the weather turned shit just after Coleman.
Mel and Lucy were in town (from Libya), and they invited to stay at the Labine house in Fernie (thanks Labines). We boarded on both Saturday and Sunday. The snow was amazing on Saturday, and pretty good on Sunday too. Weaze and I had one run in a newly opened bowl that was an absolute blast. It was really tiring too, because if (okay when) I fell over, my board would get stuck. You kind of had to dig yourself out after every bail. Sunday was lots of fun too, although I am quite sore today. We were boarding terrain that was quite challenging for me at times. I had 6-7 solid good hard bails over the course of the weekend. My legs are tired and my neck is sore, but it was so worth it.
The other fun thing about this weekend is all the people that were in Fernie. There were loads of people there, some at the Labines place and some at Cat and Aarons place. The Labines had everyone over for a big and delicious dinner on Saturday night. Yum and funsies.
Oddly enough, I wasn't the only one to go to Vegas one weekend and Fernie the next. Monteith did the same thing.
Today, I'm paying the price for all my fun. I'm feeling really sick. I mostly blame the fact that the office has been freezing cold for 2 months. It's only a matter of time when you are cold for 40 hours a week. I felt sick before Vegas, but managed to keep healthy by pounding the Cold FX. Even that couldn't help me this time. You know how your nose gets all red and horrible when you have a bad cold? That's what I have, only....typical, I suppose, a little more weird. My (tube) eye look like that too! I look like I've been bawling.
ps. My favorite plaid kitty is back!!
