sneak peek

Here's a little preview of what my ski trip has been like so far:

On the first day, my ski instructor informed me that my pants were not meant to be worn as outerwear...they are aparently a base layer.  Good thing he told me this at the beginning of the day so I felt like an idiot for 6 more hours.  A very cold idiot.

Armed with some new ski pants, I hit the bunny slopes this morning looking oh-so-sporty.  And then I almost hit about 57 people waiting in the lift lines.  Imagine me flying down a hill, out of countrol and attempting to do "the wedge," yelling "SORRY!" as I slide about half an inch to the left of the lift line and fall in perfect hurdle stance, taking down a mesh fence in the process.  As if I didn't already feel ridiculous, the lady next to me decided she would be funny and yell, "Hey, this girl's trying to cut in line!"

Yep.  I'm a natural.  Cross your fingers for a safe day on the real slopes tomorrow...especially if you're on them with me!
