oh, canada!!!

i came home from our neighbor's to the north on sunday after a lovely three days of skiing and four days of drinking. but it was cold. it was was so cold that dee's b.f greg and i came up with a new term....double fuck cold! it wasn't just fucking cold, it was FUCK, it's fucking cold out!!! did you know that once the temp dips well below 0 celcius and farenheit are quite similar. case in point, thursday night it was -30C which is -22 F!!! that's right people. -22!!! double fuck! and also when it's that cold, the mucus in your nose will also freeze. double fuck that's cold!

but, besides extremties freezing, the skiing was quite lovely. the snow was nice and powdery, considering that the sun couldn't melt it even if it tried! but the bitter cold was a bit more of a pain in the ass. numb fingers and toes lead to you heading in early. but i did have fun on the slopes. i also got to go back to the spa where i detoxified myself in saunas and cold baths and then had all my troubles massaged away! how relaxing!!!

and then there was the eating and drinking. fondue night, as always, lots of fun and very filling. but i think i have finally mastered the art of not gorging oneself so i did NOT land myself in a fondue coma. then there was the drunk snow tubing down a hill in the woods. there was one casualty, and that was one tube that didn't even make it down one run. we're blaming the ravine that ryan slid into for that one!!!

but, a great weekend was had all around. and it's sad that it can only happen once a year. wait, maybe i am glad that it's only once a year- there is only so much drunken snow tubing one can watch!!!
