So I actually went out and bought ingredients today. I mean, we've always had food in our apartment, but it was always either sandwich supplies, frozen foods, chips, or things of that nature. I mean I bought ingredients. Flour. Sugar. Eggs. Adams Extract. I've now gone almost a year without these things, and to be honest I wouldn't have ever cared if Nate and I hadn't suddenly decided to bake a Mississippi Mud cake. So now I've got all of these baking supplies. Hooray.
And now that I've been in school for a week since spring break, Easter is now here. Again, I say hooray.

Today was... short.
I received my wake up call, as usual, at 6:00am. Normally, while I am here, I would hop out of my large motel bed and hop into the shower, ready to start my long day of snowboarding, but on this particular day I felt like doing something different. I thought, "I'm still sleepy... and I'm on vacation. Why would I deprive myself of sleep when I am totally within my rights to get an extra few hours? The mountain will still be there at noon."
So I stayed in bed. Until ten. And it was good.
I got up to the mountain and bought a half-day's ticket around about noon, and in the course of ten minutes ran into every single person I knew on the moutain. Daniel Cook, his girlfriend, the Worthleys and their crew, the Chaloners... everybody. It was crazy.
The weather wasn't as nice today, but that's okay. It was snowing, and that meant fresh powder... kind of. There were two inches of powder, and immediately under that was the same sheet of ice I spent yesterday trying to scrape my way across. But it was still a pretty fun day, and tomorrow promises to bring more of the same.
Also, Valentine's Day was exactly a month ago today. And that means I have a phone call to make. G'night, everybody.

[edit: Nov 23, 2010: don't read this, it's just a really boring story. I tried reading it and couldn't figure out why I had even typed it.]
Well, I am absolutely in love with Colorado all over again.
There is snow on the ground. Right over there. I could go over there right now, make a snowball, and throw it at somebody. I can take a picture of the mountains at sunset. I can WATCH THE SUN SET IN THE MOUNTAINS. But most importantly, more amazing than all of these things, I went snowboarding today. And as has always been the case, I had the time of my life.
But I'm getting ahead of myself.
The story of my trip to Colorado begins on Friday afternoon, with lunch. Michelle and I had made plans to have lunch together before we both left for our respective spring break destinations, hers being home and mine being the mountains. We had some excellent Quizo's, after which she helped me load my car. Not one to be outdone, I then helped her load her car. We had some time to spare, so we walked over to Starbucks in the Garage Mahal and I had my first ever Izze (ih-zee) fruit drink. Very tasty.
So anyway, we walked back to where both of us were parked, said our goodbyes and left for wherever it is the roads were meant to take us. I was supposed to stop in Hinton for a game night with a bunch of people I haven't seen in over a year (some of them longer), but when I got there Nate let me know that the game night had taken place the night before. This frustrated me greatly, as it added a very significant amount of time onto my trip, but in the end I wound up enjoying the night regardless. *shrugs* I dunno. I stayed on Nate's couch and slept better than I have in weeks, knowing that soon I would be Pagosa-bound.
And I was right. The next morning I woke up at 7:45 and talked to Nate's dad about the remodeling job they're doing on their house. After about ten minutes of this, I decided it was time to go; so I made some hot tea (at Mark's invitation), fixed myself up a bit, and I was on the road by 8:30am central standard time.
I was making some seriously good time, having only stopped once in between Hinton and Amarillo and showing no signs of needing to stop until New Mexico, when on the outskirts of Amarillo I passed Daniel Cook, fellow snowboarder and Baylor student. I knew Daniel was also bound for Wolf Creek. I waved to acknowledge the significance and coincedence of the situation, then promptly sped away towards my goal.
In about five minutes, he called and asked if I was stopping anywhere anytime soon, and I figured I might as well stop and say hello if they were stopping soon. Long story short, I ended up joining their caravan and taking on one of their passengers for the rest of the trip. 'Twas a fun trip, but I'm not a very chatty person when I drive, so I'm sure my passenger thought I was some kind of non-talkative creep or something. We got into Pagosa Springs around about 7:00 mountain time. Dang good time, if you ask me, and since you're reading this blog I highly suspect you might have asked me. Don't question me; I make the rules here.
Juan's Mountain Sports opened at 7:30 this morning, walked in, rented some boots, and headed for the mountain. I got in about four or five really great runs before I ran into the Chaloner family at the bottom of the lift. I spent the better part of the day alternating between running with them and breaking off by myself into the trees or just moving at a really fast pace. However, my poor, weak, out of shape body was not prepared for such a thing and now my legs are incredibly sore. Ow. I only went until 3:45 today, since this was my first day back and I've got four more. Don't want to wear myself out needlessly, because that would suck.
So I came back down the mountain, changed clothes, went back to Juan's to buy socks (yes... socks), and then sat outside of this internet cafe in order to hijack their wireless internet connection, which was easy because they seem to not mind people doing that.
So I don't take very many pictures when I go on trips, but regardless here's a link to a page I had iPhoto make for me because I am lazy. They are, for some reason, in reverse chronological order.

* three things you are often complimented for: Eye color, voice, and willingness to take on more and more work (although this is usually followed up by confusion at why said work isn't done yet)
* you get embarrassed when: I perform and it's obvious that I didn't prepare.
* makes you happy: Playing my guitar. It's cheesy, I know, but I can't be angry while I'm doing it.
* upsets you: Being in a discussion where it's obvious my input is being ignored.
yes or no:
* you keep a diary: If a blog counts, then I suppose I do.
* you like to cook: Yes, but that doesn't necessarily mean I'm good at it.

* TV show you've watched: Freaks and Geeks

do:

* you believe in online dating: Oh, I believe in it... it's real enough, after all. I'm not a fan of it, and I don't recommend it, but it's definitely there.
* others find you attractive: Some do, some don't. I don't think about it that much, honestly.

* suicide: Well, if I was for it, I probably wouldn't be writing this, would I?
* killing people: Okay, seriously, has anybody ever put "for" here? C'mon, now.
* teenage smoking: *shakes head* Smoking in general just isn't that smart. The occasional cigar, fine... but seriously. Bah.
* doing drugs: First off, I've never had drugs of any sort. Second, it would depend entirely on the drugs involved... I'm of the mindset that what people can do whatever they want to do as long as they don't put others in danger while they're doing it. If you want to fry your own noggin, be my guest. I just won't be doing it myself.
* premarital sex: Hmmm... again, complicated.
* driving drunk: Against.
* gay/lesbian relationships: Wow. Let's make some more things black and white, shall we? I'll say that I'm not necessarily in favor, but then I don't see how it's any worse than some of the stuff your average evangelical doesn't so much as bat an eye towards.

Holy crap, 2:00pm on Friday cannot get here soon enough. After the longest year ever, I'm finally going snowboarding again. I don't know if it can beat last year when I just decided at the last minute to go by myself, because that was about the coolest thing I think I've ever done. As far as true spontaniety goes, I have yet to top that trip.
But regardless, I'm stoked.

I WOKE UP FOR CLASS! ON PURPOSE! WHEN I HAD PLANNED TO!
No snooze bar for this guy, no sir. You see, I discovered last night that I could use my iPod as an alarm clock. And so, by setting the iPod up to play a playlist of really good "wake up" songs, I was able to actually motivate myself to climb out of the futon and get the day started. This is beautiful; simply beautiful.
There's more to be said here, but I gotta go.
