Weeknd Update
I had a fairly low key weekend.
Friday, went to the UW “Med School Prom” with Meagan. It was quite entertaining to see the future medical community in a slightly less than academic or professional setting. It’s funny how, as I grow up, professions for which I had a certain amount of reverence, such as education, medicine, and law, gradually lose a bit of their aura as my friends enter these fields and I realize these “professionals” are just normal people practicing a particular career. In any case, the prom was an entertaining experience.
Saturday, got up early and headed to Crystal for a surprising late March bluebird powder day. Snow was fantastic in the morning, but as it warmed up and got tracked, the afternoon runs were a little choppier. It was a fun day, finished with a few beers at the Snorting Elk. Here’s JJ taking a rest at the top of RX:
I’ll be bummed when ski season is over, but not so bummed to not get up at 6:30 (or earlier…) on Saturday mornings. Still have a month left till Baker’s closing day, not to mention a trip to Whistler for the Telus festival. And with this season’s snowpack, summer hiking and riding is still a possibility.
Saturday night, relaxed with Meagan, and caught up on Lost. I almost gave up on the show last season, but now I think it is phenomenal. I am hooked and looking forward to episodes starting back up again.
Today, I slept in, did some errands, went to REI to use my 20% off coupon (new pair of road bike shoes - Sidi Genius), and I’m now getting ready to make dinner and attempt to finish off the remaining seventy-three items on my Sunday todo list. Probably not gonna happen…
