Whistler Day 5 - The Bane of My Existence

I talked about White Out conditions on Day 3. Those conditions were a joke compared to Friday’s outing. Friday we did Fresh Tracks which is breakfast at the Roundhouse Lodge on Whistler and first access to the mountain before opening to the public. It was snowing so we were looking for [...]


Whistler Day 4 - A little bit of powder

I could write a long post about how amazing it was today, but I won’t because I’m tired and I have other posts to write. Today was the hardest day of skiing so far. In addition to the powder to deal with, we did a lot of bump skiing today. I was [...]


Whistler Day 2 - Apres Ski

Today was the first day on the mountain and it was spectacular. My friend Eric and I spent the day on Blackcomb and it was completely dead. Lift lines were non-existent and you had free run of the place. We did Blackcomb glacier once and stuck to runs around the Excalibur, 7th [...]


Sorry about the lack of posts this past week

It’s been a crazy hectic week. I’ve been planning my vacation in Whistler (I am writing this from there now on my new Asus eee pc) and getting work commitments done.
However, since I’m now mobile you’ll get all the updates on my vacation in real time instead of a week later. It’s [...]


So I saw some Spice Girls today.

Specifically Scary and Baby in Holt Renfrew. I’m so not excited about celebs, so I didn’t stalk them like most people. There were a group of crazy people following them and a group camping outside the front doors, ridiculous.
Well, they were both shorter than me and very cute actually. Scary [...]

Totally off topic, but Cute Overload is the best and I always makes me feel better after viewing its cute animal goodness.

I want - I got in 2008

So what will happen with I want - I got in 2008. Frankly, I haven’t thought about it. I have two goals, update my friend links and write more. That’s about all for now.
Last year my goal was to up my presence (whatever that means) and I think I accomplished that. [...]


Whistler

My friend has been taunting me with tales of massive snowfall every night and skiing Blackcomb glacier on Christmas. It’s complete with photos. Look at that snow, it’s killing me!

February is coming soon.


Pitch correctly and you’ll have more luck

I just got a canned email pitch from a salesman who deals in packaging. Every once in awhile a TFI member decides to email everyone. He’s promising to take I want - I got to the next level. I don’t think this guy realized that I want - I got is a [...]


I’m a cat person

That will explain why I posted this adorable video
