Last weekend Jeff was away and I took the opportunity to go snowboarding with some girlfriends on Saturday and head to a Superbowl get-together on Sunday (HD with American commercials; good times had by all). Saturday was great weather (well, it is winter! the lifts are cold in the mornings every time...) and I rode a black diamond run twice before lunch - can you imagine?! Today my plan was to play some more and take the day off for another Ladies Day special, but I now have other plans. Jeff is still away (he actually came back to town for a full 36 hours earlier this week) and so I have another single girl weekend to fill. I have decided to take my Level 1 avalanche safety training. I'm really not planning on doing anything particularly hard core; I'm taking the course so I can read the danger and steer well clear of it! I asked my boss if work would fund my weekend as part of my safety training, but no dice :) They don't generally drill gas wells in active avalanche zones...
Other news: I finished Colony of Unrequited Dreams. The last third of the book really drags on and then bam! everything is wrapped up nicely in the last few dozen pages and life goes on... The first half is great, and I realise since it is based on a real person the ending can't be super over-dramatic, but the balance was pretty off. Book club meets tomorrow night so I'll soon hear what the other ladies thought of it. I am now reading a dirty little Michael Crichton book - I feel like I need a brown paper cover for it. I'm ruining my bus reputation!
