My Trip to Cataloochee... now THAT'S Christmas.
--New Burton boots for $100
--$50 for a used (hideous, needs to be covered in stickers) but perfectly funtioning Ride board and Rossi bindings, because "I'm a struggling college student" = I love Danny at MV Ski and Tee, who is forty-five and fat (insert hearts and flowers and music here)
--Me: "See, I DIDN'T stand you up. I just happen to be about 8 hours late." (saying this felt oddly familiar and somehow ironic)
--Me: "But, I don't WANNA go to the emergency room! My knee is FINE!"
-Chris: "But it's purple and green!"
-Me: "It's festive! ...Can I at least shave my legs first?"
-Me: "WE SPENT FOUR HOURS IN THE ER AND THEY GAVE ME A FRICKIN ACE BANDAGE! But hey, I got a cool CD of my x-rays!"
--"I didn't fall off the lift! Gepetto, I'm a real snowboarder!"
--"No please, that's... so... steep... AAAHH!" ::claws at snow while sliding down mountain on belly::
--"I CAN RIDE TOESIDE! didyouseeit? look look! Toes heels woo!"
--"Ok, my legs feel like... burrrniinnggg... I'm going home."
Overall, I'd say it went well.
