A Telemarking kind of day!

Same, same, same so I had to do something different, different, different.  I rented telemark skis.  The guy told me it would be easier on my knees not the other way around which turned out to be quite surprising especially since I have two ice bags on my knees right now.  I must not tell a lie.  I don't really have the ice on my knees yet because I haven't had enough energy to get up to get it.  (I'm on the couch eating chips and salsa and drinking a beer).  Kim, I yell, get me some ice.   Another surprise, no answer!  Worthless.

Anyway,  Lola, get me some ice!  That thing doesn't even move.  If it wasn't for that constant barking at snow falling I would think she was dead or something.  Again, worthless.

I actually had a great day.  I took 13 runs and burned over 700 calories and that wasn't even skiing the hard stuff.  As I noted earlier the conditions have been the same for a long time.  The only thing that was more interesting today is that I made Kim watch and critique me the entire day.  I think she secretly liked it, getting even that is.  Kim!  Kim!  What are you doing you aren't watching!

I have to give today () () () () snowballs because I was completely entertained.  My ski buddy was less than thrilled with the day because she had to watch me all day but I told you the ranking only has to do with my happiness.  As it should.  As it should:)

And don't tell me what Bode did today.  I have to wait until 8:00.  The NY Times barely mentioned Julia's second silver medal.  They suck.

I thought I was going to be able to rely on this for a somewhat truthful ski report, highlighted on what makes Sarah happy, but instead we get only what makes Sarah happy. I would like to say "shocking", but I'm not.
Love it anyway!
